@Scoularyou are correct.  I just confirmed with Kelley, my MEI TA, we have early dining.  

Our August 2022 cruise is anytime but it's too soon for dining options (it's the new layout too)

Trying to find past post on pros/cons to my time dining to a set time dining.

Then the more I thought about it, due to restrictions/changes, that info might be obsolete?

 

I think only time will tell. I think cruises as we know it will change for a while. 

What’s in a Bahamas mama?

I don't know if that is something Royal provides for use in standard balcony cabins.  Try looking over this website:

https://www.royalcaribbean.com/experience/accessible-cruising

In particular this page indicates "shower stool" but I don't know if that is what you are seeking.

https://www.royalcaribbean.com/experience/accessible-cruising/equipment

Sometimes accessible rooms don't always appear in inventory so you might try calling and speaking to Royal or a travel agent.  Beyond that you can try emailing them with your questions at special_needs@rccl.com. 

Thank you!

Hi All,

I’m looking to book a trip on the anthem in September. There aren’t any  disabled balcony rooms available so I’m looking to book a standard room. Does anyone know if RCL have portable shower chairs that we can use? She can’t stand for long so one would be required. Else I can buy one but just helps if we know if they have these to use. 
 

Thanks!

Does travel sickness = motion sickness? Or something else?

Exactly that! 

Hi All,

I'm currently looking at the 9 Night Super City Break cruise from Southampton.   I usually cruise with my partner but he's not keen on going on this one as he's already travelled there with work.  They're all new to me though, so I'm keen to go.  He's suggested I take my mum instead.  I'm currently on Platinum and she has never cruised.  She gets travel sick easily.  I guess my two questions are:

1) Anyone on here suffer from travel sickness and will just living off anti-sickness pills for 9 days be ok? The cruise is on the Anthem which I've been on before but I don't get travel sick so I don't know how bad that would feel to someone that does.

2) I'd be travelling during the double points promo, so I would then be taken up to Emerald, where my partner would be still Platinum.  Our next cruise as a couple is in October 2022, will he get the same benefits as me in Emerald or will be have less?  Same with my mum if she comes on this cruise with 0 points, will she have the same benefits if in the same cabin?

Many thanks in advance!

@twangsterI found the link, your directions are of course spot on.  I'm failing from the get go on the All Dining like your screenshot below does not even show My Dining.  Guess I just need to be more patient and keep checking.  Thanks to you I now know how to do it when it does.

Thank you!

 

Did you choose MyTime dining when you booked? If not, perhaps that’s why it isn’t showing?

Not sure how far out you can book, @Scoular but I'm able to reserve for an April 2022 sailing. I may have been able to earlier, I just never bothered to check!

Thanks for the heads up. I’ll have to keep an eye out!

Hi All,

Do you know if the double points offer will work if I book a cruise through a travel agent, rather than through RCL direct?

Thanks everyone for the feedback. Any idea how far away from the actual date I should be able to book it? As mentioned, I’m not cruising until October 22. So far away still!

I will say that MTD appears to be changing, possibly.

For all of my cruises I've been grabbing MTD times not knowing if WJ will be open for dinner during the pandemic protocols.  The earliest time across the board has been 6:30pm for MTD.

Thanks for the heads up! 

Hi All,

My family and I have just booked to go on the Odyssey of the Seas in October 2022. We always go with My Time dining and I usually book it on The Cruise Planner.  I can't remember where I found it last time we cruised.  I know the timeslots go quickly and as there are 6 of us I want to ensure we get in on the time we want.  As it was probably 2 or so years since we last booked one, I can't remember where to find it or whether I am actually looking in the right place and it's just not available yet.  I remember a lot of things aren't available until about 120-90 days before but I felt My Time dining was available to choose sooner, but I could well be wrong. 

Any advice is really appreciated.  It could save me checking back every day for the next year or so! 

Thanks!
