Can you request a specific dining rotation?...Starting out at a certain restaurant over others? We are always put on Lumiere's/Triton's first but we would prefer Animator's first.
I never even thought to ask, but last year they (DCL) asked ME if I'd like a specific rotation! I called to make ressies for parasailing,
and after that was taken care of she asked if I would like a private table and/or a particular rotation. I said yes to the private table, and PLA for the rotation. Both were in place as requested when we checked in!
I think it is like anything else, it depends on who you talk too.
About a mo before our Dec. cruise we called dining to be sure we would all be seated together and at that time requested PLA. We were told they could put in a request, but there are no guarantees. We were lucky as we got rotation we requested.
Beano, that's because you were in a SUITE. That is a service for concierge guests only.
DCL does NOT take dining rotation requests. They may note it on on your reservation as a courtesy but it really goes nowhere. It's simply impossible for them to accommodate rotation requests. If you are really unhappy with your rotation (and I don't know why anyone would be, it honestly doesn't matter) then you can ask for a change onboard.
They DO, of course, take dining SEATING requests and will do their best to accommodate you.
