Creator's Key Takeaways

One of the best things about cruising is eating. But don't make these dining mistakes.

All you have to do is ask. All you have to do is ask. And the worst that can happen if they say no.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Go to main dining rooms or grab-and-go spots instead of the buffet on embarkation day.
Check your Princess Powder or app for dining room opening times and locations.
Use specialty dining if you have the premier package to maximize value.
Make dining reservations in advance or as soon as you board to avoid missing out.
Ask staff about dietary accommodations; they will try to accommodate within reason.
