anytime dining

We're scheduled for the late seating on our cruise on the Golden Princess March 18th. I'm now having second thoughts since there's been so many comments that are good about the anytime dining. Does anyone know if you can switch once you get on the ship? Thanks for your imput

I'm sure you can; ask the maitre d' when you embark. Probably easier to switch from assigned to personal choice dining than the other way around.

karen m,

While you can drop the assigned table for personal choice, there really isn't a need to do this unless you want to free up some slots for those trying to get assigned seating. The restaurant management staff will have a table set up on embarkation day for those wanting to switch. Trust me, if you show up with assigned seating wanting to drop it, they will accomodate you. They really try to push people towards the anytime dining option. But, Personal Choice means everyone can go to the anytime restaurants - even those with assigned seatings. Many people have assigned seating and then go to the anytime restaurants a couple times during their cruise. They actually have more choices.

We were assigned to pc seating on our last cruise & initially my wife was against it, but since she tried it she wouldn't do it any other way. It gives you all the same benefits as traditional seating but you get to choose your table mates if you want.
