Rare LindaD22 Posted February 6, 2023 #2 Share Posted February 6, 2023 You can email a table request about 2 weeks before your cruise at rcldining@rccl.com. We did that, boarded today and found they had honored our request for a 2 person table along the railing. My husband is also an introvert! 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Email Royal two weeks before cruise and ask for a table just for your family. rcldining@rccl.com. Give them your reservation number, ,cabin number, sail date, name and table type request. This only works if you have early or late traditional. If you have MTD just ask when you show up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare HappyTexan44 Posted February 6, 2023 #4 Share Posted February 6, 2023 I am with you. Dinner will be our time to catch-up as a family and possibly have parent and teen-girl conversations that you don't have in front of strangers. One thing that I found heartening is to look at the a video of the MDR of the ship. There were a ton of 4-person tables. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neverbeenhere Posted February 6, 2023 #5 Share Posted February 6, 2023 Upon embarkation send your daughter to the Maitre d' (MD) and have her request a table for three. You will get an appropriate table when you show for dinner, whether she talks to the MD or not. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smokeybandit Posted February 6, 2023 #6 Share Posted February 6, 2023 We always sail as a family of three and only on smaller ships do we ever not get a table by ourselves. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One of the parents can do this or all 3 go. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spurschick Posted February 7, 2023 #8 Share Posted February 7, 2023 Did you book direct or through a TA? The TA (or reservations if booked direct) can note request for table for 4 We are a party of 3 and never had anyone sat with us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Maitre D can't give them a 4-top if none remain available. If you're talking about MTD, there may be a wait if you're wanting a private table and not wanting to share with strangers.

dwayneb236 Posted February 7, 2023 #10 Share Posted February 7, 2023 I called up Royal Gifts line to do a little ordering. While the agent had me on the line after I did my business, he asked me all kinds of questions about setting up the bed as together or apart, do I want any of my friends on the cruise linked, and how big of a table do we need and for how many people. Never really had them ask me that before. Pretty interesting. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I emailed 2 weeks prior to our cruise requesting a table for 2 and had no issue getting it with MTD. In our small 5 Cruise experience, we have never shared a table.

Rare HappyTexan44 Posted February 7, 2023 #13 Share Posted February 7, 2023 I don't know what thefog's plans are. But since this is important to me, I'll do every option. It is already noted on our reservations. Two weeks before I will send the dining email. When we embark, I will check out the assigned table. Luckily we are 4, so if we are on a 4-top we'll be good.

You don't need to ask for a table for two ahead of time with MTD - the host at the MTD desk can get you the same thing. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
