Did your ego need that? It's smaller because the ship is smaller. You act like it should be the same size as Oasis class. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My original contribution was to give info to the op as he asked, you felt a need to correct what I wrote and then you later agreed with it. If you want to argue, it wont be with me. I am trying to help not nit pick, as too many on these boards do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mcmarya Posted July 16, 2022 #28 Share Posted July 16, 2022 Did you happen to observe lines for My Time Dining? Early seating was not available when we booked so we did My Time. Will try to change when we board if My Time is a disaster on this ship as it is on others. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TKATeacher Posted July 17, 2022 #29 Share Posted July 17, 2022 We came off of Enchantment a week ago after a 9 night Bermuda trip. We have only sailed small ships on Royal, and this was our first cruise since the Covid shut down. In the Windjammer, we found food at breakfast to be varied and plentiful; lunch had solid choices but it did get very busy. We ate all of our evening meals in the main dining room and thoroughly enjoyed the food and had fabulous wait staff. This was a very personable cruise...members of the crew made concerted efforts to connect with passengers in really positive ways, at least that was out experience. My Time Dining from what I observed had long lines. I avoided that option based on reports on here and that was the right call. We had the late seating (8 pm), but that has always worked well for our family on a cruise. We like to enjoy full beach days without worries of missing dinner, so late works for us. We would simply grab a snack late afternoon to bide our time until dinner. Note, you have 2 options for that after 3:30...the Cafe in the Solarium and in an extra section of the Windjammer (opposite side from the popular ice cream station). They put out a nice assortment of food upon the conclusion of lunch. Another plus of late dining, we never looked for a late night snack! I hope you enjoy your travels on Enchantment! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Late night snacks were in the Park Cafe in the Solarium and it closed at 12:30 each night. This was on the Bermuda 5 night. May be different with a different itinerary. Wow! Thank you for this! I will head to Cafe Latte-tudes when I wake up! I’ll check when I board. Can you tell me what late night snacks they had in the Park Cafe? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We had MTD but we made reservations before boarding. We ended up at the same table with the same waiters. It was just like traditional dining, but we ate when we wanted.

mcmarya Posted July 17, 2022 #32 Share Posted July 17, 2022 Thank you so much for the information. I've made reservations, mostly early, and was hoping things were better on the Enchantment than some other ships. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steppy08 Posted July 23, 2022 #34 Share Posted July 23, 2022 I was on the Enchantment June 24 6 nt Bermuda. The service was good but they were short staffed ESPECIALLY in the bars. One bartender and one waiter for a crowded bar. MTD always had a line, even w reservations we waited every night. Not long but it was a bottleneck. Enchantment was nice, but not the same level of product or quality as on the bigger ships. And I’m not talking about entertainment options or all the crazy extras. The food and service was just better on the Allure two weeks after my enchantment cruise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Janet524 Posted August 22, 2022 #38 Share Posted August 22, 2022 Anyone recently on Enchantment.... Is Jayson still the concierge in the Diamond Lounge? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shipgeeks Posted August 22, 2022 #39 Share Posted August 22, 2022 Jayson was in Diamond Lounge when we were aboard in February, and in Concierge Lounge during our June cruise. I don't recall if he said what his future schedule would be. We would love to see him again! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hoping he'll be there for our October cruise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He left for vacation the same day we disembarked on Aug 6th. I believe he said he'd be away for two months. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
