Party of Six Private Table?

[aliceinvunderland]

We are sailing as a party of six—any need to call to request a private table or can I assume we will be seated alone? I already used the “special request” space online to specify a severe gluten allergy, so I would need to make a call to request a private table.

I think the table sizes are 4/6/8. We were a party of 6 and were seated at our own table without any requests.

Take nothing for granted. better to put the request in and at least know the private table was requested.

If you link your travel party together under "My Disney Cruise" on the website, then you should be seated together...

I believe you can put in a request for a private table online, even if you have an allergy. I know we have done it in the past, even when my son has sailed with us and I note the peanut allergy. If I remember right they are in 2 separate sections. I'm trying to go through to do it now but I'm getting the "We're Working On It" error.

***Edited to add, I just checked and the table request is in fact its own option. Under Special Requests, click on Table Preference, and then you get 5 options to choose from, 1 being a private table.

If we have a group of 7 they won’t sit 1 person with us right?

I've once been seated at a table for 10 - 5 couples - but I rarely see those. We weren't travelling together. We were once 4 couples travelling together and were at a table for 8. While it's unlikely that a party of 6 travelling together would be seated with another couple and seven travelling together would be seated with one other person, it doesn't hurt to request a table for only your travelling party just to be certain.

We have just finished our cruise as a party of 6 and we had a table to ourselves.

They could if there are solo travelers.

I just got off the Fantasy on Saturday. I was a solo traveler. Totally expected to be put with other solo travelers. However I had a 4 top to myself. I didn’t request private dining. In my servers tables there was a six seater with 2 couples each with a toddler girl that were seated together. Another table was 8 seater. I wasn’t close enough to that table to figure out the makeup. In Royal Court, my neighbor table with a different server was 3 ladies traveling together at a 4 top. I don’t think they really would stick someone in as seat filler with a larger group.

Yeah I doubt a solo traveler would enjoy an after 8pm dinner with 3 children!

When I’ve done solo cruises I’ve either been sat alone or with a table of other solo diners. It would be so awkward being sat with a giant party.

We have only been seated with others, not in our party, twice. Both times it was only 2 of us. Since then, we've always had a private table. Our cruise party sizes have been: 2, 3, 5, 6, 7, and 11 (2 and 3 twice).

I’ve got a family of 6 and we’ve done 7 cruises never been sat with anyone else and never requested a private table. Unlikely to be an issue but never hurts to put in a request.

 

[PrincessShmoo]

Twice we were a party of 5 and both times we had a 6 top, with no additional people (person).

 

[SnowWhite2]

We were a group of 3 that was sat with a family of 5. Amazily, it was the family of one of my daughter's friends that she made on previously NYE cruises.

We’ve cruised twice as a party of 7 with our own table and smaller parties seemed to have their own tables too.
