Q: Hello, I have paid the balance today for forth coming cruise, have also paid the gratuities so My Time Dining is covered and yes have also paid for the wine package so hopefully that should save a few pennies. What I need to book now is a Hotel in Barcelona if possible somewhere close to La Lambra. Can anyone give me any Hotel recommendations please?

Well this should cover the "My time Dining question" and guess who did this post ? Yes your right "Wilba" read on............I've just found this on the 'other' site after a long trawl through it (their search option rarely works) so here's a run down of MY Time Dining:...........Dinner is served in the Main Dining Room Same menu as traditional seating Same impeccable service as traditional seating Must pre-pay gratuities to participate - this includes tips for your waiter, assistant waiter, head waiter and stateroom attendant Guests will not receive a table assignment or permanent table mates You will have the ability to request a certain waiter (subject to availability) My Time Dining waiters share their gratuities amongst the other My Time Dining waiters; feel free to reward your waiter with an extra tip for providing excellent service You will be seated with the party you arrive with; you can request to be seated with other guests or alone To provide you with a smooth, non-disruptive meal, once dinner service begins for your table, no additional guests will be seated Reservations are recommended in order to avoid a delay in seating (reservations will be taken once onboard) When reserving your cruise, you will need to provide your reservation number and the number of guests participating in the My Time DiningSM option Offer is subject to availability +Available on the following ships and dates: Oasis of the Seas December 12, 2009 - November 27, 2010 Brilliance of the Seas now - December 23, 2009 Freedom of the Seas now - December 27, 2009 Serenade of the Seas now - December 26, 2009 Jewel of the Seas now - December 21, 2009 Radiance of the Seas now - December 20, 2009 Independence of the Seas now - December 26, 2009

Yes you qualify as long as you have Pre paid your Gratuities...... To ensure I was ok for My time Dining I asked the cruise agent I booked the cruise with to notify RCI that I had Pre paid my gratuities and would require the option of MtD.

Hello Wilba, please look below at one of the questions by me at 15.09pm, when did you write the post? It’s annoying me because I cannot find it. It’s when you informed me you were sailing on the Legend OS. Regards

Hi I have booked a cruise on Brilliance of the seas, what is My Time Dining? Sorry cannot really recommend you a hotel in Barcelona. Thanks

Hello Wilba gave a tip about Pre paying your gratuities which also covered "My time Dining" about 4 weeks ago and at the same time he mentioned Pre Paying for the wine package to also save money, as he has for his next cruise from the far east. But typical I can not now locate the post to give you.... Anyway do you sail in the next 3 months and if yes have you checked with RCI or your Cruise Agent regarding the Fuel Supplement Payment and on board credit. I have spoken to both and the information I received was very wishy washy to say the least.

Ref Wine Package -I think you may have been refering to the post actually made by Wilba on 12th Dec.
