dining preferences with suite?

Hi,
My husband and I were thinking about taking a first cruise on Celebrity this winter and weren't able to get very good answers when we called the 800 number at Celebrity. On the website it says that the suites and concierge class get dining preferences, but the person at Celebrity said there aren't any dining preferences but that they'll try and do their best. Since we're going on our anniversary, we wanted to have a table for two on some nights.

And my last question is if Celebrity is a good line for a young couple (early thirties)? It seems HAL has an older clientele and so we were deciding between Celebrity and Princess.

Thanks for any advice!

That is true they try and give you what you want for dining, but it doesn't always work.The sooner you get your request in the better. You can also dine in your cabin by the balcony and you will have a table for two and a private room! We do that on 1 or 2 nights when we cruise and Celebrity is great about it. They bring your food on a rolling table with sides that can be lifted up to make it a small round table for two. It really is nice.
Which ship are you thinking of booking? It makes a differance as to the age group of the ship.

Thanks Laurie,
We were thinking about the Millie or the Galaxy.
We'd love to get your feedback on the different ships and age groups!
Thanks,

Cathy, these are the kind of requests that a good travel agent can assist with. Celebrity will "try" to honor your request. However, it can not be guaranteed. Our last Galaxy cruise and always we request a Large table: we were seated at a table for 4 with only us at the table! I requested a change and it took 4 nights before another couple,who had requested to be moved from their assigned table, joined us. They were on their honeymoon and wanted to have company at dinner. Customer Service does there best but they are not always the most knowledgable or helpful. When you make a reservation at one of the Supper Clubs, that seating request will be honored. The extra fee is worth it in every way. That is a great way to celebrate your happy occassion.
Bon Voyage
