Do you like the non-traditional eating times or do you prefer late or early seating ? Let me know in the comments!🍰

[@monicadziuk5635]

I prefer Traditional and early seating.

[@smb2a587]

I never cruised Princess, but really want to. However, I hear they are completely Dine My Way. I think the Dine My Way is a deal breaker for me on Princess. It can take me about 2 days to get used to my tablemates and different ones every night may be too much.

[@anneclough7064]

@@monicadziuk5635 Same here. I go into the App and book the same dining room at the same time (5pm) every evening.

[@wendysoulliere1305]

Thank-u for showing me about the dining .

[@BonVoyageCruiseTravel]

Of course! Thanks for watching! ☀️🚢

[@loveboatcruising]

Thanks for sharing, great video.❤

[@BonVoyageCruiseTravel]

Thanks for watching! I’m ready to go again! ☀️🚢

[@TouristtoLocal]

The food looks great! Now i’m hungry!!

[@BonVoyageCruiseTravel]

I have to give Princess credit for their good food and international menus even with cut backs and changes. I think it’s very delicious! Thanks for watching! 😊

[@ton-jaynes7136]

Thanks so much for the review & info. I'm sailing for the 1st time (ever) to Alaska on the Royal Princess. So this is so helpful.

[@BonVoyageCruiseTravel]

Thanks for watching! Bring layers and you will have a fabulous time! I love that ship! I went to Alaska on Royal Caribbean last year and I have some videos about Sitka and Juneau and Victoria. @BonVoyageCruiseTravel on KZbin. Have a great trip!

[@monicadziuk5635]

We are sailing on Royal to Alaska the first week of June. Have you already gone?

[@ton-jaynes7136]

@Monica Dziuk Yes. I went the first week of May. I had a great time. I enjoyed the ship, and of course, Alaska was amazing. We had great weather in port. No rain even in Ketchikan.

[@claraibi3598]

I booked different dining rooms on different days, and I booked late dining usually about 8 pm It was always nice, on the ruby princess

[@BonVoyageCruiseTravel]

Thanks so much for watching! That is good to know! I never switched dining rooms! I’m enjoying this new style of dining! 😊🍰

[@Maren01ML]

My husband and I were on the Royal in the Concerto MDR in March, and we chose same time dining for each evening of our cruise. Twice, our table was given to another couple, having us wait until the guests were done eating. The second time it happened, I asked for another server. I'm putting it out there because there is no guarantee you will get the same table, server and time you choose. The restaurant hostesses have a way of empowering themselves to call the shots. I even got a dirty look from one of the hostesses after I asked to see our table after we boarded. I would like to add that my husband requires a wheelchair. We asked for a window and accessible table, we didn't get either...and we're Elite members....what a joke....

[@BonVoyageCruiseTravel]

Wow that’s too bad. I always check out my table and definitely want the same table each night. I wonder if they were overbooked or something. It’s true, the dining seaters do have some power! I hope it goes better next time. Thanks you for the information!

[@monicadziuk5635]

My family is cruising on Royal in June. The only time available to us is 8:40pm. I have young children and live in the Central time zone. That would be like feeding them at 11pm at night. My daughter has severe allergies to dairy and eggs, so I really wanted to have a set dining time with the same waiter each night. I'm so disappointed in the Dine My Way. I can't tell if there really aren't earlier times available (I started checking 2 months ago) or if the app just isn't working (app has been super wonky). My plan is to go talk to the maitre'd after we embark. Fingers crossed!

[@BonVoyageCruiseTravel]

I would recommend talking to the maitre’d the second you board. If that doesn’t work, go to dine my way (usually another floor) and tell them your story. I have had luck showing up at first seating when the doors open and have been seated. Be persistent and yes the app is not working properly. At least for me on a recent cruise! The my dine my way usually starts around 645p and 1st seating is around 530p. Not everyone eats in the dining room all the time! Luckily 😊. Good luck!

[@janiceh8565]

We booked the same time every night and we had different tables and different wait staff every night.

[@queenslanddiva]

you can specify a table number if you like

[@BonVoyageCruiseTravel]

That so interesting because I had the same waiters every night and the same table. I liked that! Just as for the same section, if you like to know the wait staff! Thanks for watching!🚢☀️

[@jayneras642]

What time are the shows, when is a good time so you can see them

[@BonVoyageCruiseTravel]

Usually there is an early show (around 7-730) and a latter show around 9-930p. They are the same show. Sometimes they have a comedy show at 10p. Your show time can work either before or after your dinner. It’s up to you! Thanks for watching! ☀️🚢

[@lekhak78]

You get to eat lobster too @10:00 ☹️

[@BonVoyageCruiseTravel]

Yes and if you want more than one they are happy to accommodate! Thanks for watching!🦞

[@ashleyt6014]

The food in the video- is this the main dining room that is free to eat at because it’s included in your fare?

[@BonVoyageCruiseTravel]

Yes main dining room, buffet and slice pizza and international cafe and trident grill plus soft serve are all included in your cruise cost. Specialty restaurants and coffee ( fancy) and bar drinks are extra.

[@kerrymcgee2402]

I cant find that app everytime i type in medallion class app it just pulls up princess cruise line app

[@BonVoyageCruiseTravel]

Look under the App Store and type in Princess medallion. It will show a Princess logo white with blue background. It is the newest version of the app. It will operate even smoother than the other. I think I may be showing the older app, but same principle!

[@georgettemucci8152]

Are the menus changed each night? Are there specific seafood nights?

[@BonVoyageCruiseTravel]

The menus change nightly and are available to view every day ahead of the meal in the app and it also is posted outside the dining room on the wall. The lobster night usually happens on a formal night. Fish is served throughout the menu nightly. It always is a variety of fish, poultry and meat plus vegetarian. I know of the buffet having a sushi night. It really just depends on the ship and chef. Thanks for watching!🍤🦞

[@georgettemucci8152]

Can you still order what’s not in the menu that night? Or say two lobster tails? Also, we purchased the Premium package, is there still a fee for the Premium restaurant? We will be sailing on the Sapphire in Alaska next week.

[@BonVoyageCruiseTravel]

@@georgettemucci8152 the premium premiere gives you 2 meals in specialty restaurants. The premium plus does not. More than one Lobster 🦞 can be ordered free of charge! Dietary requests or special needs should be requested to the maitre’d and or waiter on embarkation day (just visit once you board) to tell them what you need. They usually want advance notice (24 hours). Have a lovely trip. I haven’t been on the Sapphire! ☀️🚢

[@keithwynkoop9588]

Traditional. Where will you be able to get a professionally trained Waiter and Assistant who will become familiar with me and who will eventually know I what I want? Not many and Not enough unless you are continually flush with cash. You know what to do, it’s a good opportunity for you and others perhaps . Don’t blow it.

[@keithwynkoop9588]

You are correct! People matter sometimes.

[@BonVoyageCruiseTravel]

I like to know my wait staff too! It’s fun. Thanks for watching!!🍰🚢

[@cyrene7784]

This is an old menu.

[@BonVoyageCruiseTravel]

How often do they change the menus?

[@cyrene7784]

@@BonVoyageCruiseTravel On Feb 20th they made big changes to the MDR menu, Sabatini's, and it looks like the International Café has way fewer offerings. No salads at all I've been told. They also changed all the drink packages and raised the prices on everything. :(

[@BonVoyageCruiseTravel]

@@cyrene7784 thanks for letting me know. I hope they will realize that the food is a BIG draw to the ship choice for many! Have you traveled with the new menu? Is it really lacking? I am going on a Princess cruise this month. I’ll report what I find!

[@cyrene7784]

@@BonVoyageCruiseTravel I'm going in May. I was so excited because I'd seen so many great reviews for the Fettuccini Alfredo and the French onion soup, but they've taken them off the menu. This happened a week after we fully paid. The also raised the prices of everything so we had to re-budget.😒 But I've been following people on FB and they don't seem to have too many complains about the new menu, so it will probably be fine. I'll be checking back here for your updates! :)
