Jerry C Posted April 8, 2017 Report Share Posted April 8, 2017 As topic, where could we reserve our seating online? OrionJus 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DocLC Posted April 8, 2017 Report Share Posted April 8, 2017 If you have My Time Dining, you would reserve it through the Cruise Personalizer on the Royal Caribbean website. You'll need your reservation number and sail date to access your reservation if it was not booked directly through Royal online. Click on dining on you should see it there. Note that the option might not appear until about 90 days out. If you opted for early or late seating when you booked, there's nothing for you to do.

With MTD, you can make a reservation ahead or daily or just show up and wait for the next available table, correct? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jerry C Posted April 9, 2017 Author Report Share Posted April 9, 2017 Do we need to pay gratuity? I saw it from My dining time. One more question, if that possible we will seat with other people if we have just two people, in what way we can avoid it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FManke Posted April 9, 2017 Report Share Posted April 9, 2017 Correct. I've yet to make a reservation in advance. Do you find a lot of people doing the same? what's the longest you've ever had to wait? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RestingBird Posted April 9, 2017 Report Share Posted April 9, 2017 One more question, if that possible we will seat with other people if we have just two people, in what way we can avoid it?3 out of our 4 cruises have been just the two of us, and we've been seated at a table for 2 each time. I suppose if we ever want to sit with a random group we could ask if there's such a table for us.Our 2nd cruise had 5 in our party, so they sat us all at a table together.

DocLC Posted April 10, 2017 Report Share Posted April 10, 2017 Do you find a lot of people doing the same? what's the longest you've ever had to wait? We've only had two wait twice.

The gratuity can be prepaid as part of your reservation or can be charged daily to your onboard account if not paid in advance. Previously, Royal required the gratuity to be prepaid with MTD, but they've done away with that requirement. I like to prepay it, personally, as the approximately $13 per day, per person adds to the final bill. Do you find a lot of people doing the same? what's the longest you've ever had to wait? I've only had to wait twice in five cruises. One time for 10 minutes and another for approximately 20 minutes. Somewhere between 7-9 seems to be the busiest, so if you avoid that time you'll likely be fine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you do end up having to wait, they'll usually give you a pager so you can go off into one of the adjacent lounges if you like. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DocLC Posted April 10, 2017 Report Share Posted April 10, 2017 hum. what are the differences between MTD and traditional one? coz we have chosen traditional dining time at 0530 See the link in the post above, too, but know that you will be scheduled to eat in the main dining room at 5:30 every night and will have the same table and the same service staff every night. You essentially have a permanent reservation that cannot be changed unless you switch to My Time Dining. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
