I only recalled at least once or few times after I finished my meal at one of the Dream Dining Restaurant, I saw peoples queing or waiting for their number to be called to go in. Probably they boarded late or went around onboard sightseeing first before coming for their meal. This is quite common if cruise is very full and if you come late for your meal during other meal hours.
I know there is a priority lane for the platinum card holders on the right (outgoing) lane. Even then they get to sit inside those VIP rooms.
Getting your meals served within 5 mins after sitting down? If you mean those appertiser or starter then maybe yes but definitely not the main course/dishes.
Hihi. I get the whole set in UD served to me within 5 mins. At LD. I get my steak cooked immediately and served to me with 5 to 8 mins too. Even platinum card holders do not necessarily
get the private rooms.
And I am not platinum card at all.
I have never queued for food most of the time. I even get my food served to me at lido sometimes.
