Question Hi...Newbie here.

Hello everyone. I just joined and am new to the whole message board thing. I'm still trying to figue it all out. Anyway...I am planning a 3 day Disney cruise for next August. There are 7 of us, 4 adults and 3 children (ages 5, 11, 14). Any suggestions on the best dining seating to choose? I have never cruised before and I don't know what works best. (All three kids live in a time zone an hour earlier than Florida time) Any advice would be appreciated!

Pleased to meet you tinkfan425


You have to think what is more important based on your kids ages....
Snack.... see the show ... dinner at 8:00 =/-(late dining)
Feed kids.. see the show (carrying any that fall asleep afterwards)....

Most families seem to want early dining with the kids... but a snack on deck 9 (or cookies in the room-they room service wicked cookies) first

Happy cruise planning
