Hawaii_Flyer Posted July 21 #1 Share Posted July 21 We are booked on utopia next month and asked for early seating, just found out early seating is at 5 not six, way early. And my time does not open until 6:45. So our normal 6 pm time is not an option. 😞. Almost a 2 hour gap, terrible times! We don’t want to do specialty every night with kids, they are good, but only for so long. Suggestions? We are pretty quick, can we come in late for early as long as we are out early enough for secong seating at 7:45, Or should we do my time and show up early and hope they open early.

Pretty much every ship I've been on lately has early dinner at 5 pm. I agree it's too early but they have to get ready for late dining. You could ask for anytime when you board and a 6 pm time. The WJ opens at 6 pm. I eat here about half the time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You cannot show up late. They only hold your table for 15 to 20 minutes, so if by 'late', you mean you'll be there at 5:15, then sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am assuming you have not cruised on RCI lately. On every ship I have been on over the last year (I usually cruise on RCI twice monthly) early dining has been at 5 PM. I would switch to MTD, but realize they are very strict about the 6:45 PM time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheBeardedCruiser Posted July 24 #8 Share Posted July 24 Whether you decide to do MTD or the assigned time, please don't show up early or late. Showing up early to MTD is rude to the crew who work extremely hard. Showing up late to assigned time dinner is rude to the other people at your table. Just my two cents.
