Maximum number seated at Dinner Table?

[jthree]

We are travelling in a party of 12. Does anyone know the maximum number they will seat at one table? We all booked at same time but do we need to request that we be seated together? We are booked in 4 different rooms. Thanks!

I was once at a table for 18. If you wish, they will seat all 12 of you together.

Thanks! Did you request that in advance or did they just do it because you were booked as a group?

Your travel agent should automatically request that your dinner reservations be at the same table.

Cabins with linked reservations are normally seated together (to the limit of table size), but it's a good idea to have your TA call DCL and have this preference noted on your reservation.

The normal table sizes are 4, 6, and 8. There is one large table in each dining room on the WOnder and Magic, and smaller tables can be placed together to handle large groups. As stated, I was at a table of 18 on one cruise.

I will tell you that 18 was not a good configuration for conversation. Frankly, 2 tables of 9 would have been better as it is impossible to talk with someone at the far end of a table. However, it all worked out and my DD adopted two "little sisters."
