ace123 Posted December 2, 2022 #1 Share Posted December 2, 2022 It'll be my first time on an Edge class ship for a 7-night Caribbean cruise. I have 6:00 pm dinning. Do I stick to the assigned MDR every night? There are slight differences on the menu of each MDR and I want to try them all. How can that be arranged? Thanks for your insight.

Rare 1025cruise Posted December 2, 2022 #2 Share Posted December 2, 2022 If you have assigned dining, you will have the same table in the same DR each night. You would need to arrange with the Maitre'D to change DR. With that said, I thought I read that on all Edge class ships, they've changed to all anytime dining for just this reason. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jelayne Posted December 2, 2022 #3 Share Posted December 2, 2022 Each of the 4 MDRs have the same menu with the exception of a few “signature” items which are different in each. However you can order the signature items from any of the 4 in any MDR. So you don’t have to be seated in Cyprus in order to get one if that restaurants signature items. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was reported they're doing that on the Beyond. Haven't heard if they updated the policy on Edge/Apex yet wouldn't be surprised if they follow sooner than later 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for your insight. 1) Log into the cruise planner, see if you can change your dining to "select" 2) If not, call X and request it over the phone 3) If not, board the ship as early as possible and ask the M'D 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tigerfnan23 Posted December 2, 2022 #8 Share Posted December 2, 2022 It didnt on our cruise. We had signed up for 6:00 beforehand but saw on the app it had been changed to anytime dining a few days before the cruise. We assumed it was an error and asked about it once on board and were told that it wasnt a mistake and anytime dining was the only option for the MDRs. This was in September so don't know if its still the case or not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Miaminice Posted December 2, 2022 #9 Share Posted December 2, 2022 Dining times are not applied anymore on E class. Just still on the IT system. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dancing Shoes Posted December 4, 2022 #14 Share Posted December 4, 2022 I wasn't very clear; sorry I have a headache. We sail on the Apex in April, and I chose fixed. I am going to see if I can change to anytime and make some reservations. As usual, CC comes through with good info. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
renebfl Posted December 4, 2022 #15 Share Posted December 4, 2022 Just got off the Apex, We enjoyed changing dining rooms every night. We found the decor and feel of the particular restaurant was part of the experience. We had set reservations at 7 pm made by our travel agents Even though we had a different waiter every night, they were all out to make us happy.

Did you instruct your TA to make a 7pm reservation at a particular restaurant each night or did they just randomly choose different dining rooms on different nights?

renebfl Posted December 5, 2022 #17 Share Posted December 5, 2022 We let her make the reservations. I would think it would be easier for her. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
