Hi- we just found out that some great folks we met on our first Disney cruise will be on the same cruise with us in December- does Disney allow you to request to be seated together for dining? Thanks.

Yes, you can do this. You just have to get their reservation number, call DCL and have the reservations linked together. I did this for our upcoming cruise with our in-laws.

Yes- you can link reservations and request to sit with them. It is not a problem at all (as long as you both have the same dining times). I do it for my clients all the time.

We've done this before and have done it for our Alaskan cruise in 2011.

Most definitely. We did it last summer.

We have 2 staterooms linked together, total in our party is 4 adults & 2 children,
Will we probably be at a table by ourselves or a larger table with others that have children.? Oh, we also have second dining.

You will probably have a table for 6. It's not as likely that you'd have a table for 10 or more (family of 6 and family of 4), as they don't have a lot of 10- and 12- tops. They do have a lot of 8-tops, but it's not common to put a party of 2 with a family group of 6.

On our first DCL cruise, DH and I were put at an 8 top with a family of 5. It wasn't comfortable for us at all. On our second cruise, we traveled with friends so we were together.

We had 3 adjoining rooms with 14 people. We were all able to sit together in all the dining rooms. Had a wonderful time with excellent service.

We were an extended family of 12 on our cruise last December and they had one big table waiting for us every evening. Just make sure that Disney knows you are travelling as a group.
Enjoy!
