I searched, sorry if I missed the answer. We have book a west bound crossing in fall of 2024. Last time we had a nice window table for 2 and enjoyed it, but we frequently chatted with the table of 4 beside us. This time we have decided upon a table of 6, to meet new people. What is the proper etiquette for dining in a group like this. Are the first people to the table expected to wait a bit or do we just start when we arrive? We don't want to be rude, but neither do we want to wait an hour if the other folks decide to eat later.
