Questions for Recent 3 night WONDER people

[mm126]

1. Can you tell me the dining rotation for your cruise? I know it sometimes changes but I would like to have some idea.

2. How long are the shows?

I am trying to figure out how we can eat at Palo and still see all the shows. I think I might try to feed the kids early, catch the early show 6:30 and schedule Palo for 7:30 or later. Any suggestions are welcome!!!

There are different dining rotations, of which you will be assigned one

The 2 I am most familiar are

APT - Animators, Parrot Cay, Tritons (consensus is this rotation is most likely when traveling with small children)

TAP-

Shows are all approx 1 hour

assuming you have early seating, you can go to scheduled rotation restaurant at 6....have a quick light bite, schedule Palo for 7, and go to 830 show.....

We were just on a 3 night Wonder cruise. We have children, ages 6 and 9. Our rotation was PTA.

We reboarded the ship after our Castaway Cay day and had the kids all bathed up. It was about 3:12. The matinee of Golden Mickeys was starting at 3:15, BUT....dd had to be to kids club for the rehearsal of the Remember the Magic show at 3:45. I didn't want to be too late for her getting to her club. So I called guest services and asked how long the Golden Mickeys show was....

He said 46 minutes and 23 seconds!

I'd have been happy with "about 45 minutes." But, my point, is that the Golden Mickeys show was similar in length to the others.....but with the matinee we walked in at 3:14 and got GREAT seats, wheras if you are going in the evening you'll have to get there earlier.

Don't know anything about Palo, never have been there.

You might just have to wait and be flexible with your plans. We were on the 3 day last week, they didn't open the doors for the Palos early or if they did it was only by a little. We were talking to them at approximately 1:33 by my watch, Saturday was filled, 6:30 was the latest I could get on Friday. There was a few more openings still for thursday. This made it the second show instead of the first for us on that night, but there was room. Good Luck.
