Creator's Key Takeaways

The main dining room is one of the most important parts of any cruise ship.

To enjoy a meal in a cruise ship main dining room, you won't be required to pay anything extra.

I would never eat dinner while on vacation at 6:00 p.m. It's just simply far too early.

If you're traveling solo, why not ask if there's a solo traveler's table and go and make some new friends.

Creator's Tips & Advice

✓Check your booking or call your cruise line to understand dining time options.
✓Speak to the maitre d' early if you want to move dining times or tables.
✓Let the crew know about food allergies or intolerances as soon as possible.
✓Try new foods you wouldn't eat at home, as they are often included.
✓Check dinner menus before you go in to plan your meal.
