Making online reservations for Palo

[Kim&Chris]

I'm going to try for Palo reservations for my October cruise

So, here's my question: the website says to come back 75 days out. Do they mean 75 days from the first day of the cruise OR 75 days from the actual date I'd like to get Palo reservations?

Sorry, just found the answer to my own question - it's 75 days prior to embarkation.

It is 75 days from your cruise/embarkment. You need to make them early that first day. You need to remember concdirge has been able to make theri ressie since 105 days out and CCM's since 90 days out. I just made mine this past weekend. We have cruise before so we are Castawy Club member and I was able to schedule it at 90 days. Our cruise is my birthday present this year. I was a little greedy. I wanted to go without the kids. I am bad, I know, but we have been wanting to go without them for some time and I figured if it is my present why not do it my way. I made the ressie on my birthday and then realize we might miss seeing sunset. So I cancelled and rescheduled for the last night. This is what we normally do and we always are able to see the sun set. It is very nice.

When is sunset on the last night? Any idea for Sept cruisers?

Thanks!

I've just tried booking reservations at Palo for out 9/17/05 cruise. I thought I should have been able to do so on 9/18/05, but it wouldn't let me. I tried from very, very early morning and throughout the day the website wouldn't let me. Then, I tried very early morning of 9/19 and it still didn't let me. I tried the afternnon of 9/19/05 and it let me. Ok, maybe my 90-day counter thingy was off.

Now, it will only list dinner, brunch, and high tea for 1-2 persons. I wanted to make reservation for 3-4 persons. We'd really like our friends to join us. My reservation is for 2 persons maybe that's why. But, I recall reading here that others could do 3-4 persons. Could just be all the 3-4 persons slots are used up. But, seems odd given that all the times are still available.

Oh well. I sent DCL and e-mail and I'll see what they have to say.
