Nick560 Posted August 14, 2023 Report Share Posted August 14, 2023 We just booked the march 16th 2024 odyssey of the seas and I was able to talk some friends into booking with us and it turned into a group cruise. Can anyone confirm how we can all communicate on the ship without the internet package? Also if we hit up the main dining room on day one, would it be possible for all of us to sit together in the main dining room every night? Thank you in advance for your replies!

Xaa Posted August 14, 2023 Report Share Posted August 14, 2023 Hi @Nick560. Sounds like fun! Without the internet package you can still use the Royal Caribbean App and that will allow you to communicate on the ship. For dining if you call RC, they can link the reservations and then you will be placed at the same table(s) for dinner. If that somehow fails, you have the right idea and a visit to the dining room upon boarding should get it straightened out. Enjoy your cruise!

Are you able to connect rooms via the app or can you only communicate with people in your own stateroom? We will have 4 separate rooms throughout the ship. 2 couples picked their cabin and 2 rolled the dice with a guaranteed cabin.

Xaa Posted August 14, 2023 Report Share Posted August 14, 2023 You can communicate with guests in other staterooms. RCIfan1912 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ryan79 Posted August 14, 2023 Report Share Posted August 14, 2023 You can communicate with ANY passenger on the ship as long as you have their first and last name Nick560 and Pattycruise 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PPPJJ-GCVAB Posted August 14, 2023 Report Share Posted August 14, 2023 You can link the other 3 reservations to yours and then about a month before your cruise send an email to: rcldining@rccl.com to request a table for 8. On the subject line provide the ship name and sailing date. In your message…provide the 4 reservation numbers and stateroom numbers and passenger names. Also note the dining time you all chose. Enjoy! Nick560 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PPPJJ-GCVAB Posted August 15, 2023 Report Share Posted August 15, 2023 Not sure on a table for 11. We had 17 (12 adults and 5 kids/teens) and I requested 2 tables…one for 9 and one for 8. The table for 9 was a long rectangular table and very likely could have accommodated 2 more. We were on the Oasis and I would assume all dining rooms generally are similar. Best you can do is put that in your email. Doesn’t sound like an unreasonable request. Hope it works out for you! Nick560 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doubtful. At that party size you are likely to get 2 tables for 6. Nick560 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks in advance! 10 years ago on explorer we had a group of 11 in 4 rooms &;we all were assigned the same table. 12 is probably the max. We were in the back of the dining room, which probably made it easier for them Nick560 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ampurp85 Posted August 16, 2023 Report Share Posted August 16, 2023 I saw a table of twelve on Freedom in April. I think it might be the max they can stretch, and it was because there were children. I think if only adults they let it go at 10. PPPJJ-GCVAB 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
