Star965 Posted August 7 #1 Share Posted August 7 Hello All, Hubby and I really dislike sharing tables at dinner, we just feel uncomfortable making small talk. We have not cruised in 6 years and used to be when you had YTD you could go the dining room and request a table for two no issue. I read that now we need to use the app for YTD, can we still request a table for 2 on the app or is there another way to do it? Thank you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mz-s Posted August 7 #2 Share Posted August 7 On the app you can state whether you'd like to be seated alone or with others. The tables are mere inches apart (barely enough for an adult to squeeze through) so it really doesn't make a difference though. Do note that when checking in to breakfast or brunch in the app you'll usually be seated at a group table on most ships. You may be able to ask the host for a private table if you prefer.

BossyKat Posted August 7 #4 Share Posted August 7 In all the times I've used the HUB they have ONLY sat us at a table for 2. I would not worry. 🙂 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
heymikey2016 Posted August 7 #5 Share Posted August 7 Yeah, even though the tables are for two, mz-s is right, you'll be RIGHT next to another table. I've had good luck asking for a window table. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bg2310 Posted August 7 #6 Share Posted August 7 (edited) The only time I've checked in for a table for 2 and was sat at a group table with others was during sea day brunch. For dinner it's always been a private table (non-shared) and I never had to select seating alone. Edited August 7 by bg2310 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nc762shooter Posted August 7 #7 Share Posted August 7 Like the others have said, yes the tables are close together but in my experience the fact you are at a separate table seems to make people not feel obligated to make small talk with you if you don't seem open to doing so. Seaday brunch you will most likely be at a table with others but you can always try requesting a solo table. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DH and I always request a table for two and not infrequently get seated at a booth. Edited August 8 by staceyglow 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can count on two fingers the number of times I’ve been seated at a booth - counting all my MDR seatings - teas, breakfast, brunch, dinner. It’s not a big enough deal for us to ask the host. We’re fine wherever. Edited August 8 by mz-s Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
