First Day Dining room Question

[JZenkow]

We are scheduled for main seating at 6:30. The ship is scheduled to leave Barcelona at 7:oo pm. How is dining room handled first day? Will we eat while leaving port? Is there a change in time for the First day? Thanks

Just a guess but most likely the Muster Drill will be about 6 or 630pm and the first dining seating will be pushed back right after that 7pm or 730pm, late seating would be 2 hours after the first one.

 

WE have been at Dinner a few times when the ship has sailed away from port. It can happen, if it bothers you just skip the Dining Room that first night and use the WindJammers for dinner that first night.

We also ahve been in the dining room as we're pulling away. It's actually very fun and feastive.

 

Oh, consider too that you may not have your luggage (on the first day) by the time dinner starts so you might want to pack something in your carry on!

On most cruises, first seating passengers are dining while the ship is sailing out of a port. On Explorer, we sailed away from each port between 5:00 and 6:30 PM. The windows give you a small view, and like previous posters, it is quite festive in the dining room.

We were on the Splendour last month. Dinner times stayed the same on the first day. Lifeboat drill was held at 5:30.

Many thanks for the info. It doesn't bother me to eat while leaving I just didn't want to be at muster during dinner time
