Creator's Key Takeaways

the early dining is between 5:30 and 7:30 now 7:30 is not too bad it's probably around the time we usually at 5:30 he a bit early for us too early

the late dining is from 7:45 which wouldn't be too bad 7:45 8 8:30 but it goes up to 9:45 now that is not 9:45 leave the restaurant that's 9:45 sit down

we think that's pretty good value for specialty dining we think that's pretty good value

the cruise ship itself is stunning I mean it's beautiful um and the places it's going for where we're going amazing so the value is amazing

Creator's Tips & Advice

Check dining time allocations carefully as they are assigned on board and may be difficult to change.
Consider specialty dining packages for better value and flexibility if main dining times are inconvenient.
