Quick question about early/late dining

[LiZaArd]

We are currently on the waitlist for the early seating, would anyone think/know that if I remove the "private table" request it will help us clear the waitlist? We are on the Treasure in September and are 2 adults only. Also, our 10th cruise so I know the chances are slim but just curious.

I don't think that has any bearing on the waitlist.

Ok thank you! Think it was fleeting hope that it was so had to ask

Actually it might help. They are more likely to move you if you are okay to share a table (this often what happens when you request it again once onboard)

Yeah. Given that early fills up first, the odds of getting a private table there is slim (outside of being Concierge which traditionally get private tables).

Adding on- Both the Treasure and the Wish it is much harder to get a private table (even at late dining). Especially for the Treasure because she is sailing near capacity. If early dining is something you want I would let them know you are ok with sharing a table (chances are high you will share at either late or early dining on the Treasure)

Ok thanks! I should of thought that a private table would be harder given it's one of the newer ships and sailing at capacity! I'm used to the Wonder/Magic and we always request the private table so it was habit of checking the box off. Even then sometimes it felt like you were seated with others as there was only 6" between our tables and we ended up chatting away with the neighbors . Since we're ok sharing a table, I'll remove the request and hope it helps the chances of early seating. If not, we'll make new friends regardless!

They fulfill the waitlist requests and the table requests completely separately at different times.
