We just sailed on the 1/15 Magic, kind of a second honeymoon cruise, no children. Our rotation and table assignement was changed when we got on board as a result of us asking to be seated in a particular head server's station. We ended up at a table for two. We were totally okay with meeting new people, but found this very nice as this was our first long trip alone in 17 1/2 years. So we know tables for two can in fact be had or made. For sure go to the assigned place for making change requests for your dining assingment and if that doesn't do it, see the dining room manager on your first night. I bet they'll work it out for you.
