Millenium Largest Table in MDR

[TMLAalum]

I started a stampede of freinds and family when I became enamored of a 2021 Pacific Coastal Cruise. We now are 6 couples who are have the 6pm seating and used the same big box ta so are linking our reservations for dining. (3 additional couples booked AQ). It's been @6 years since we've been on an M-class ship and we were just a party of 4 then.

 

Does the Millennium have tables large enough for 12? Perhaps it would work better to have 2 tables of six so long as they were adjacent and had the same waitstaff- we could then mix nightly at the smaller tables plus they'd be more conducive to conversation.

 

Any first-hand knowledge, experiences are sought. Thanks!

I believe they have table for 10-12 but the problem is you can't hear anything at the other end of table.    When we were at a large table we switched up seating every night so everyone could talk with others.   2  6 tops might be a better idea.

Absolutely agree. The seating would be 5 on a side and one on each end.  A couple round tables for 6 would be more comfortable.

Absolutely go with the two smaller tables. If anyone in your group has even mild hearing loss, it will be hard enough to hear even at a six-top.

I have never had an issue with the meals in the MDR, but before the introduction of Blu and Luminae I found the noise level very high.  Definitely go with two tables and mix up the seating.
