Dining room etiquette – If you're a cruise newbie you've probably heard the rumors: You can order as much as you'd like in the dining room! Can't decide between two entrées? (Surf & Turf night gets me every time!) — go for it! Your server won't bat an eye.
On nearly any cruise ship, in the main dining room, you can order as much as you want of anything on the menu. Obviously that is also true at the buffet. Also the poolside grill. Maybe not so much in a specialty restaurant where you are paying extra, but even there they will likely bring more of anything you want.
Simply pick up the phone and order something tasty from our extensive room service menus. And since you get hungry when you get hungry, room service is available any time of the day (or night), and it's always delivered right to your door.
You can eat as much as you want, so don't worry. On a recent cruise, we were next to a table with a family of 8. EVERY night they all ordered every appetizer, every soup, every salad and every entree. No, I'm not kidding---we felt so sorry for our waiter as he huffed and puffed with trays of food.
Much like any hotel on land, room service tends to be operational 24/7 and that means passengers can have breakfast in bed at 2 p.m. if they so please or enjoy a hot pepperoni pizza at 3 a.m. by the sea.
In many cases, no. Several of the biggest cruise lines, including Carnival, Holland America and MSC Cruises, have a rule that if one adult in a cabin orders a drinks package, all adults in the cabin must order the package. This is to prevent two or more people in a cabin from sharing a single drinks package.
Carnival allows up to 15 alcoholic drinks per day (6:00 a.m. to 6:00 a.m.). After that, the guest will not be served any additional alcoholic beverages. There is no limit on non-alcoholic drinks, so drink all the bottled water and sodas that you want!
Food and drinking are usually complimentary on the cruises. You are also allowed to bring your own snack on the cruise so that you can have what you love. A certain time is fixed for every meal - breakfast, lunch, and dinner. You can either have it with everybody in the dining room or bring it to your room.
In that case, you can order a 12-pack of bottled water to be delivered to your cabin for about $10. That's much easier than carrying it on with you. Carnival policy: 12 cans/cartons (12 ounces or less) per person are allowed.
Can I bring bottled water on board? Carnival's Liquor and Beverage Policy states that guests are prohibited from bringing water, sodas and other non-alcoholic beverages on board that are packaged in bottles.
Yes, you can buy a beverage package. These all-you-can-drink packages allow passengers to pay a set fee up front for unlimited drinks (of a certain type, as outlined by the package's fine print), rather than pay per drink once onboard the cruise ship.
The drink packages are non-transferable and non-refundable and cannot be shared between guests. When you purchase, Carnival will put a sticker on your Sail & Sign card to show you purchased the package.
You can purchase the Carnival drink package individually.Sorry folks, but just like other cruise lines, every person 21 and older in the same stateroom must purchase the CHEERS package. So if you and your roommate are at odds over whether or not to get it, one of you will have to concede this battle.
Not permitted in the dining room during the Cruise Casual dinner for ladies and gentlemen: shorts, gym shorts, basketball shorts, beach flip-flops, bathing suit attire, cut-off jeans, sleeveless shirts for men and baseball hats.

If you like to have dinner on the table the minute you get home from work, stick to your regular routine. Choose the early dinner seating—it usually starts around 6 p.m. But if you like to lounge around a while or hit the gym after work, you might prefer a later setting, which typically starts at 8:30 p.m.
Sure, you can eat at the buffet at almost any time of the day or make a reservation at a specialty restaurant, but to dine in the main dining room, most cruise lines require you to show up at either a set time or during a limited timeframe.
