Table sharing for dinner

[Matsurida]

Been on MSC once before but had anytime dining. This time we haven't booked Aurea and will have the early dinner seating (Magnifica). How likely is it that we're assigned a table for four... or to put it another way: are we likely to be seated together at one table with another family? And if so, do they try and match up languages spoken at all ( which was my experience on RCCL a few years back, for example)?

I have yet to sail on MSC....but have cruised many times on other lines. A party of 4 is a perfect number for your own table...whether it be a booth or a regular table. I find when you have like a group of 5 (like when we cruised with my 3 children)....many times you are seated at a round table which can hold 8....thats where another couple may be added to your table. However we have also been seated at a booth for 4 and my youngest sat at the end of the table on a chair. So anything is possible

yes they do match up languages, there aren't many tables for two

I see. Thanks a million for your speedy replies!:D

FYI...I was assuming you were a group of 4.... If it is just 2 of you.... True tables of 2 are hard to come by. Your more likely to get a table of 2 separated by 12" from the table next to you....

Yeah, you assumed right. We're four- two adults, two small(ish) kids. Just not sure we're the table-sharing types... and only have 3 languages and I'm worried about being sat night after night with people in silence because we can't communicate. Guess we'll wait and see what happens. There's always the buffet... :)

Yes they do try to match up.

On Seaside we had a table for 6. I saw tables for 4 also.
