When you book, it asks for your preference of seating early, late or my time dinner.  If you get the early or late then it will be the same for the whole cruise in the same dining room.

Hahaha, damn them...

Nothing on my SeaPass from Symphony in May

I feel like that’s the normal price...before sale. 

I got the Unlimited package and one night I went to hooked seafood for Oysters and Soup then 2 hours later ate dinner at Chops.. Had no problem at all doing this and it was fun too. 

I'd love to see a trifecta type package at a discounted rate. Unlimited Dining, DX, and Voom. 
Only catch I could see is those in Sky class having to pay for Voom again. Maybe have an offer where the Voom code could be turned in for some OBC. Plus the other catch might be those that want the DX exemption.

Outstanding!!!!!!!!!!

Enjoy the ride!!!!
The count down does come down and it will be very cool to see 600, 500, 400, 100!!!! 
You will say to yourself "Wow I remember when it was over 600" hahaha

WHY!!!!
Why isn't the Voyager getting upgrades like the other from the Voyager class???
What she is getting-
The Perfect Storm(water slides), Planet Z glow-in-the-dark laser tag in Studio B. Vitality Spa and Fitness Center moved to the back(All new), new areas for Suite and Diamond lounges, 72 new cabins and the app
What she isn't getting-
No Escape Room, No Bamboo Room, No Playmakers, No Lime&Coconut(pool side). No Sky Pad
 
 
Is it because she is in Australia and Asia and out of sight, out of mind?? 
A lot of things left out I think. Aussies love sport! Aussie love a good cocktail. 
Whats the point of stating what they will put on a ship and not deliver??

I'm keeping a copy of this handy. 

Yes.  I''ve never had a waiter tell me "no".  Just remember that when they bring food from another venue, somebody has had to go and fetch it....so I make sure I let them know I appreciate the effort - nice tip !

Should be unless you run into a waiter who doesn’t want to or has been told not to do so.   There is no official policy so like so many things on Royal it can be different on each ship or with a different manager.  It never hurts to ask before formal night so you can adjust plans.  

Also remember that if you are dining in a specialty restaurant but there is something on the MDR menu that night that you really want (lobster tails or lamb shank comes to mind), you can always ask the specialty restaurant waiter to bring you something from the MDR.  We do this often. No need to miss your favorite MDR dish just b/c you are dining in a specialty restaurant that night !

you could totally do that.. Also don't forget you can repeat any specialty restaurant you want also. So you don't have to replace it with the MDR.. It would be a shame to waste a night with the MDR because it makes your cost per meal go up. But hey if you want the MDR go for it and enjoy

Yep! Cancelled and rebooked yesterday! That made me happy happy!

Question asked, told it wouldn't be covered.

Haven't forgotten about this request... just need to figure out where the MDR is.
Even with this being the second time on Symphony I've yet seen it.

Here's a question (I might just ask this on Royal's Facebook page for kicks).  You have the Unlimited Dining Package. For some odd reason (I don't know, maybe you make friends on the cruise, you want to all have dinner together, they don't want to put out for specialty, whatever - weirder things have happened), you're going to have dinner MDR. Would the Unlimited Dining Package cover the Premium Selections (Whole Main Lobster, etc, from the bottom of the menu)?

That is a KILLER deal for the Unlimited Dining Package.  Congrats on snagging that unreal deal!

Mariner.  Which has Izumi, Chops, Jamie's & Playmakers.
I just looked again today and it's there for $76 per person (whole cruise, not per day).  I was able to book it this time.

We got the Ultimate (now, Unlimited) DP last Black Friday for $129 pp for our Alaskan Cruise in August on Ovation, so, it is a great deal for us.  

Now if only the UDP would include room service waiving the $9 fee.

I was just going by my experience last cruise. Most nights the specialty restaurants were half empty, some even moreso.

From my thinking at least, dinners will now be a specialty restaurant AND Playmakers, not Playmakers OR specialty restaurant.

It really opens up some nice late night options.  We found when were on Anthem last year that after 10 PM we really could only eat pizza.  This opens up have tapas at Vintages, or Pub food, etc  :)

Just got off the phone with Royal. In the phone rep's notes, it specifically stated that Playmakers and Johnny Rockets were included. So you can have wings as a "second dinner". ?
