Thank you!!

Does anyone know if the embarkation crew employed by Carnival or the Port Authority?

Thanks,

Here is the quote from John Heald's FB page today regarding discontinuing the 2 mdr seatings:

Name: Don_______

Message: been reading stuff on cruise critic message boards that suggest that carnival is going to do away with assigned traditional dinning very soon. I hope this is not true because IMHO it would be a disaster.

Name: Bianca__________

Message: John, I am really worries because we have been seeing people writing saying that Carnival workers have told them that Carnival is stopping all assigned dinner reservqations. We love meeting new people at dinner and it is one of the reasons we keep on cruising. Can you set my mind at ease please

Name: Susan_______

Message. --------- - -----------cruise lines have done away with the traditional dining room, replacing it with 5 completely different restaurants. I now read that Carnival is heading down this route and no more early and late sitting. Please please please tell me that this is not going to happen.

John's Response --- Judging by these posts all received today it is obvious people are talking about this so let me simply say this. While Your Time Dining remains popular and is getting more so it is part of a choice that we offer our guests and there are no plans to change from the choices we currently offer of early, late or your time dinning.

Oh, and by "show up within a couple of days" do you mean that it takes a couple days for the OBC to show up on your S&S? So you won't be able to use it until a couple of days into the cruise?

Fyi...you have to let your MC company know at least 2weeks before you sail or you can't use the rewards for that cruise.
