raahc Posted August 30, 2019 Report Share Posted August 30, 2019 Why does the WJ close so early? On the RCI app and a recent cruise compass the hours are 5:30 pm - 8:45 pm. Our dining time is 5 pm, and we prefer the early shows at 7:30, 8 or 8:30 pm ... hubby is going to have a hard time doing recon in the WJ, unless we go right after the MDR (I'd better pack some alka seltzer ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob&Ana Posted September 3, 2019 Report Share Posted September 3, 2019 That sounds early, normally they close at 9 or 9:30 depending when the dining times are but you are still able to get food for 30 min after. I think it just the time you must be inside the Windjammer. Normally the officers eat late so they have the food out for a while after they close. raahc 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
raahc Posted September 4, 2019 Author Report Share Posted September 4, 2019 @Rob&Ana - thanks for your response. Gone are the days of midnight buffets I'm not sure how much variety or replenishment there would be near closing time. We rarely went to the WJ at dinner time, but will be interested to see what the theme nights offer this time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
monctonguy Posted September 4, 2019 Report Share Posted September 4, 2019 On some ships the WJ is open again late night...I think maybe Marnier and Navigator at least.. I eat at WJ for 90% of my meals on Royal...always good and lots of selection...hours work fine for me..but a late night option would be nice fleet wide. raahc 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marti314 Posted September 4, 2019 Report Share Posted September 4, 2019 I do not have any problem with them closing down most all of the buffet, no need for 26 desserts and carving station etc but it sure would be nice to have a burger bar/nacho bar / taco bar for late night munchies.

I remember reading here recently that one of the ships did have late night WJ hours for just that. raahc 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
