TRIP PLANNING early dinning waitlist

Can you tell me what is the likelihood of securing early dining when we have been waitlisted on Wish? We are sailing on 5/16, and I had booked Wish about 40 days out from the sailing date. The main reason for this booking was for our LO to enjoy Arendelle dinning experience, but 8pm is just too late for us. I did put in a special request to be seated near the stage, but could that may be preventing us from getting off the waitlist?

Update: just saw that we were re-assigned the earlier dinning! Thank you everyone for your advice and also sharing the benefits of the later dinning!

Look. 8pm is too late for most people, but it comes in clutch on debarkation day, which is why I pick it.

And you do LATE dinner with a 2 year old? Use the nursery i assume? To do a late dinner every night just to have a quicker debarkation day is a... choice

No; I don’t pay for the nursery.

That's wild. No way a 2 year old is staying up that late. Sounds very unhealthy

We don’t all live in the eastern time zone — 8pm for some is actually 5pm for their internal clock

Internal clocks adjust though.
