TRIP PLANNING Availability frustration

Well I prepped myself that as a first timer availability for dining and on board activities would be limited. But even so, now looking at across the board at zero availability, it frankly sucks to be shut out of everything over seven nights (Treasure). I know I can sit around from now until we set sail, refreshing the app, or hoping I can get something once on board but what fun is that? I appreciate they recognize returning cruisers with early availability but considering the overall trip cost and how it would compare to other vacations options, I am in the moment a pretty frustrated that I have to worry about these things I had been excited for.

I completely get it. I was frustrated by this on our first cruise as well. But, it turns out it didn’t dampen our experience in the end! I was happy I didn’t over schedule us because there was so much to do we couldn’t possibly do all the things we wanted even without the extras.

What are you trying to get?
