I've not cruised Disney, but just did Carnival in March. Previously had done one Carnival and two RC YEARS ago. I have to say, we really enjoyed Carnival's flexible dining. You basically just show up and tell them you want a table for 2 and it's just like a restaurant. If you show up peak time, you may wait to be seated 20-30 min, but some other days, little to no wait. You get to sit just the two of you and you aren't locked into times. I wonder why Disney doesn't go to that with one of their dining rooms... Carnival still has early and late seating as well in a different dining room,
