8/10 confirmed seating; 2/10 on waitlist

[cmacf1]

I have just discovered that in our party of 10 going on Crown Princess at xmas, 8 of us are confirmed in first seating of traditional dining and the other 2 people are waitlist #114. We were booked all at the same time. Is this strange? We all want to eat together, but I don't know if the two people (my husband and young child) will get off the wait list. What can we do about this??

Did your TA cross reference your bookings ? :confused: Doesn't sound like it if you are not all on or all off. :(

 

When we travel with family our TA always makes sure to cross reference so our cabins are near each other and our dining table is the same. :)

Make sure all of your bookings are cross-referenced by all of the TAs. That means that the Maitre D' knows that you're all sitting together.

 

If the bookings are cross-referenced and the final two aren't confirmed, just go to the Maitre D when you board and explain that you're traveling with your friends at the same table. I'll almost guarantee that they will seat you together since they can convert a table for 8 to a table for 10.

But that is assuming the eight confirmed are at the same table. If they are not cross referenced they may be a four different tables. :(

 

For their sake... hope they are not at different tables... But the MD' may still be able to accomodate them (although if early traditional it may be harder for him)
