Ashland Posted November 3, 2012 #27 Share Posted November 3, 2012 We were on the Radiance for an Alaska southbound cruise in August. Whenever the WJ was crowded, we just carried our trays into Rita's Cantina. Again I'll ask the question....."Trays" :confused: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JimAOk1945 Posted November 3, 2012 #28 Share Posted November 3, 2012 We have only been on three cruiselines but each one has "trays" available in the buffet area. We prefer the MDR but have eaten in the buffet areas as well. When eating in the buffet area of any cruise ship, we always use a "tray." We each set our plates, eating utensils, etc. on it, then walk around until we find an empty table where we can sit down to eat. It seems easier to use a "tray" to carry things rather than juggling several items at a time or going back and forth numerous times to get each item individually. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only time I see trays on Royal is on orders from room service. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JimAOk1945 Posted November 4, 2012 #30 Share Posted November 4, 2012 It sounds like trays are being phased out. That's too bad. We eat most of our meals in the MDR regardless of which cruise line we are on. However, DW and I found them to be very useful last December on the Mariner and again in August on the Radiance. We are sailing on the Mariner again in December. We may or may not use the buffet. Or maybe just go there to see if the trays are gone! ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have not found trays in the Windjammer in the last several years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare DragonOfTheSeas Posted November 4, 2012 #32 Share Posted November 4, 2012 I was on the Radiance Aug 31-Sept 7. I ate in the WJ several times. [most breakfasts and a few lunches] I never saw anyone using a tray. There were green napkin/silverware bundles and plates. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cb at sea Posted March 31, 2018 #37 Share Posted March 31, 2018 If the only available tables are large, we will ask others if they're looking for a seat.... Sometimes you just have to sit down and join....tell them when the rest of their party arrives, you'll leave! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
