But still annoying. As for dinner, there was no seating on this cruise, you just went to whichever restaurant you fancied. The paid ones were no problem, the ones included in the fare would get full after, say, 8:45pm. They only took reservations for groups of 6 or more. In a way it was nice not to be bound to a specific eating time, but I don't do queues unless I have no choice.
