Liberty - 615 dinner seating...which dining room?

[Paleochick]

My docs say we have the second dinner seating (615pm) on the Liberty. Do you happen to know which dining room that will be in? Thanks.

It is definitely not the aft dining room! Aft is the 1st and 3rd.. so you are mid ship.. a bit less roll during dinner!

I am sorry to ask this on your post, but here I go, I have 8:15 dinner, where will I be , other that on the ship in the water:eek:

The Silver Olympian (aft) dining room has the 5:45 and 8:00 seatings. The Golden Olympain (midships) dining room has the 6:15 and 8:30 seatings. Barbara, I'm not sure if they've changed 8:30 to 8:15, but it sounds like you're in the Golden Olympian dining room. The menus in both are the same, and the decor is similar - one in gold, one in silver. The aft dining room is larger and has windows on three sides, while the midships dining room has windows on two sides. Later at night there probably isn't much of a view, so windows wouldn't matter much to me.

You will be in the same dining room as the 6;15 diner.. the mid ship dining room I think it is the Golden..

I looked at the reservation wrong, it is 8 pm.

Then you're in the Silver Olympian dining room. We were there for the 5:45 seating - I liked the room.

Thanks Kathy, did you roll around back there?

I did notice more movement in the aft dining room than I've experienced in the midships dining room on Victory, but not enough to bother me. It was most noticeable when we were in the dining room while leaving port - you could feel the stern thrusters at work. And if you're already at sea by the time you're at dinner, it's not a factor - once we left port, there was hardly any motion.

We had requested the 6:15 dinner time and our reservation came back saying "Second Dinner Seating". Well naturally I thought the first one was 5:45 and the 3rd and 4th were the 8PM and 8:30PM. I thought we ended up with what we wanted. I felt we got what we had asked for since we had booked so far in advance. When we got our Sail and Sign card it said 8:00 PM. THAT is the Second Dinner Seaing, we were told. The First Dinner Seating is for 5:45 and 6:15 and both of those were booked up. We were finally able to get a table for 2 at 5:45 which worked out fine, but don't let yourself be fooled into thinking that the "Second Dinner Seating" is the 6:15 one. :eek:

That has also happened to me, but I was stuck with the 6 time frame.

We took our meclyzine.. and never had a problem in the Silver but you nailed it .. especially when dinner took place as we left port.. by dessert we were usually in a semi empty dining room>LOL

 

I call it the ships tail WAGS....

 

Less of this in the Golden which we ate in twice.. But I felt that the aft dining room felt more spacious and had more large tables.. the other dining room always felt a bit more closed in..

My cruise docs say, "Second Dinner Seating - 615pm." I think we're safe.

[nybumpkin]

Carnival's FAQ section lists dining times as "Main" seating (5:45 or 6:15) or "Late" seating (8:00 or 8:30). On our cruise two weeks ago, we too had our dining time listed as "second" at 6:15.

We really have a good price and OBC, also. for those that have not already bood, for those that have come chat with us anyway.

[Life without whine]

Don't want to start a whole new thread so adding to this one.

 

With any time dining do we get to pick which dining room?

 

Anyone sail recently finding a difference in the service between the 2 dining rooms?
