Oville Posted October 17, 2018 #1 Share Posted October 17, 2018 Just curious, we can make our 4 Specialty Dining reservations on Thursday and would like to know what time on the east coast that would be. We start our trek from Cape Cod to Naples that day so the timing isn’t great, but if I could do it before we leave that would work. Thanks.

molymoo Posted October 17, 2018 #2 Share Posted October 17, 2018 If memory serves it used to be 6:00 AM Pacific time so that would be 3:00 AM Eastern ... may be off but I imagine you will have little trouble getting the reservations made despite your travel plans.

Capt_BJ Posted October 17, 2018 #5 Share Posted October 17, 2018 IME the "jump time" was nothing like trying to get a boarding position on Southwest! In a DV I went on the first day my window opened - not waking up early to do it - and had no problem getting all my first wants . . . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Each cruise is different and on the shorter cruises, the available slots get pretty well filled up by the higher categories, which not only get to book sooner but also can make more advanced reservations per cruise.

I forgot to schedule my specialty dining on the morning it opened and by the afternoon the only times left were 8 to 8:30 pm. I'll wait till I get on board to see if there are any earlier spots open. If not, we'll just dine in The Restaurant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are on a short 7 day cruise so I’ll be making reservations on the road tomorrow. We are in PH Veranda so homing there will be no issues.

stcroixguy Posted October 18, 2018 #10 Share Posted October 18, 2018 We just returned for the Viking sky, Amsterdam to Barcelona. Use the app when you get on board to book additional dining requests. No line, menus available to see and very quick. We got all of the additional speciality dining we wanted. "The Restaurant" was excellent also. More variety then Manfredi's.

Took me 3 minutes to make the reservations before leaving the house. Very Easy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since we are happy with 8:00 or 8:30 I don’t see much of a problem ahead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stcroixguy Posted October 19, 2018 #14 Share Posted October 19, 2018 Ethereal are two speciality restaurants, the chef’s table and Manfredi’s. Manfredi’s is the most popular Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
