Tips for the main dining room on the Grand Princess:

  • Unless you have opted for Anytime Dining, you will need reservations for dinner. These can be made after booking your cruise by contacting Princess at www.princess.com or call 800-774-6237. Contact Princess for any changes you wish to make no later than 3 weeks before sailing, but keep in mind that changes must be honored on a first come, first serve basis. After changes have been requested and when you are aboard ship, confirm with your Maitre D' within your first 24 hours, and staff will as much as possible try to accommodate you.
  • For special dietary concerns, Princess needs your requests in writing no later than 6 weeks before you sail, and these requests need to be confirmed once you're aboard with the Maitre D' within 24 hours. Go to the Cruise Personalizer on the Princess website to specify dietary preferences.
  • Bare feet, jeans, shorts, tank tops, and swim wear are not permitted. For gentlemen, smart casual such as slacks and polo style shirts are more appropriate at dinner time. For formal nights, you'll be most comfortable in elegant attire.
  • Meals are no cost, but special beverages, wines, beer, and soft drinks may be purchased via current bar menu.
  • When ordering steaks and other meats, specify your grilling preference.

Princess Cruises Anytime Dining on the Grand Princess

Anytime Dining is available in the Michelangelo and the Da Vinci dining rooms from 5:30pm to 10:00pm for dinner. After booking, specify your  selection for Anytime Dining or traditional evening reservations. Once aboard, you may opt to call in your reservations for Anytime Dining in the morning, or just show up. Wait time on your cruise can be as long as 45 minutes for special seating arrangements, such as preferring a table by a window, and if you have not called in your dining requests in the morning. You will experience less wait time if you show up earlier than 6:00pm. On formal nights, and in the evenings after 8:00pm, your wait time will likely be longer. You will receive a beeper and approximate wait time from staff when you arrive for dinner. Dress codes for main dining rooms apply.
