First Dining

Never needed to switch dining before but traveling with a baby now! Has anyone ever been able to switch from Second to First dining once onboard?

Certainly people have. Have your already contacted DCL and had your name place on the wait list for early dining?

If it hasn't come through by embarkment day, check at the dining changes desk once onboard about changing then.

It can happen, but depending on the cruise it may or may not be possible. People have reported not being able to switch before. This would be more difficult on a cruise where kids free has been offered.

Yep - moved from 2nd to 1st in May 2012 on the Fantasy. We weren't wait listed, DH just gave it a shot once on board and said it was easy as could be. Good luck
