How far out can we make specialty dining reservations?

[Riemercruisin]

We are sailing on the Icon in April 2025. At the moment I can only reserve lunch at some of the specialty restaurants.

Since there are flash sales, I want to take advantage and book some dinners, Unfortunately only lunch available to book. How much longer do I need to wait? 🙂

No rhyme or reason I know. Last year I could see all of this yewr by black Friday, but none of 2025. Still cant see hardly any of 2025. 

 

They release as rhe feel like doing it. .. from what ove seen. Just keep checking.

If you buy a package like we did, you'll probably need to wait until you're onboard. One would think with today's technology, going online after you book a dining package and book your reservation restaurant and times would save everyone time and hassle, right? Well ... that's not happening, so on Day 1 you have a long line of grumpy people who can't get the restaurant on the day they want or the time they want and take it out on the staff when technology could solve the problem ... cue the Charlie Brown sigh.

Making a reservation before boarding is a perk for those willing to pay full price.
