Normal
I don't believe this is a practice any longer. A few years ago we were invited to dine at the captain's table in the dining room along with 4 or 5 other couples. This was on the Celebrity Horizon. We have since cruised on Celebrity, RCCL, NCL, and Carnaval but have not seen any evidence of this practice being still in effect. Besides you can barely understand most of the officers anyway. It was kind of boring.
