Dining reservation question...

[rebster]

Hello everyone!

I just wanted to make sure that this information that a CM gave me was correct. I called to make dining reservations for our trip, but 4 nights of our dinners we will either have 5 or 6 people. My sister may or may not be coming and she won't know until 2 weeks beforehand (she will be on this animal conservation wildlife internship in Montana, and they told her who knows about taking 4 days off).

Anyway, I explained all this to the CM, and she said just book it for 6 and it wouldn't matter whether we have 5 or 6 people when we show up. My sister has a plane ticket and everything, but if her supervisor decides she can't come, then she simply can't come...or she blow a lot of opportunities to work in Africa with the same company next summer. Does anyone have any personal experience with this? I just don't want to get in trouble for changing the reservation later or showing up with one less person.

Thanks!

You'd get pretty much the same size table if you said there were five as you would if you said there were six. But honestly, this sort of thing happens all the time because people's plans change or someone gets sick, so just show up with five if that's the case and say "Our sixth person wasn't able to make it." It won't be a big deal. Have a great time!

I agree. You will be fine. We always have someone not hungry or wants to do something else.
