Golfbag Posted January 5, 2023 #1 Share Posted January 5, 2023 We have a group of 16 sailing HAL NA northbound from Vancouver to Whittier. Three port days - the rest glacier viewing. I'm sure we can't get a table for 16 - so maybe two tables of 8. Should we book on an early departure from one of our three ports or book on one of the evenings that we are sailing past glaciers? Afraid we might miss something on one of the glacier sailings? Opinions welcome - thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CruiserBruce Posted January 5, 2023 #2 Share Posted January 5, 2023 Depends on the ship, but generally the biggest tables are 10. I can't absolutely say they can't do a special table for 16, but that is definitely something to arrange on board. I would do it on one of your sea days.

CruiserBruce Posted January 5, 2023 #3 Share Posted January 5, 2023 Thinking about this question. Most of the "Glacier sailing" is done by 6pm so you shouldn't have an issue. Does your schedule indicate differently? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Coral Posted January 7, 2023 #4 Share Posted January 7, 2023 I find large tables difficult to speak to anyone other than those in front of me (long tables). I agree with tables for 8 that are circular. I personally am outside for most of the glacier days and I see so much more than others do (wildlife, etc...). There are times when the peak of glaciers is at dinner time on some routes I have gone on. I would book a dinner when you have arrived back from port. Or a very late dinner on a glacier day. If you could find daily sheets from last year on a similar itinerary, this may help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
