We have our 1st cruise coming up in the summer of 2023 and I'm wondering how do most people cruise. Do you go with the flow meaning you just do things as you feel or do you schedule everything and have each day planned out. For example, I was looking at the cruise planner and I see you can reserve specialty dinner and now some lunch has shown up. This is our first cruise so we probably will take advantage of the main dinning room this time around for dinner. However we did want to try at least one of the specialty restaurants for lunch. However, this far out, scheduling lunch seems a bit odd.
When we get on the ship, from what we understand, we can schedule shows, and other activities. Thus by scheduling lunch this far out, plus with the set port days in which we plan to do some sort of excursion, which again is another scheduled activity, got me to wondering, do people schedule each day of their cruise, or just wing it and go with the flow.
