DCL - Rotational Dining Basics on the Disney Treasure

Disney Cruise Line distinguishes itself from the competition with its unique "rotational dining" setup. Rotational dining ensures that all guests experience each of the three themed dining venues on board. Each night of your cruise itinerary, your party, tablemates, and service team will rotate to one of the three main dining rooms. This arrangement allows guests to enjoy multiple restaurants on board while maintaining the same wait staff.

You will also have the same tablemates and servers, fostering familiarity and the potential for building lasting friendships with fellow guests and staff. In addition to rotational dining, there are two dinner seatings each night of your...
