Hmmm... Is there reason to believe she would confirm with me that I am on the waitlist if I'm not really?
We booked an October cruise in February and late seating was all that was available, we have been on waitlist for early dining since then. I periodically confirm with my TA that we are still on the waitlist. Her most recent response to me was "As soon as I hear that you are confirmed for Main Dining, I will let you know." This makes me think she is optimistic. But if not before the cruise, I will be requesting it as soon as I board. My youngest is 4, I don't know if that is young enough to get me moved up the list.

Given that she has already in your own words "dropped the ball", I would say that is enough reason not to trust her.
Are Tucker24 (the OP of this thread) and adg06 the same person then? I thought it was two separate posters.It's the title of the thread And from the description, she really did... I hope she didn't have you pay for the extra costs?

Yeah, I'm not the OP, my TA has not given me any reason not to trust her. I was just commenting based on my experience on the main dining waitlist so far. But agreed, it couldn't hurt to confirm anyway.

They do not send notification when they change you to early seating via email or otherwise, but you can look on your MyDisneyCruise account under your reservation to see if it has been changed. It will read "Dining preference" and have either Main or Second so you can keep up on it yourself if you would like. Sometimes it changes after the paid in full date (which you already passed based on your October sail date)
That was our experience as well. I was surprised to find the change there.
When we were on the waitlist for first seating for our upcoming cruise, the fact we were waitlisted was listed under Dining Preferences when I logged into the DCL website.
It wasn't there either for me on the cruise that I was waitlisted, which was Jan 2017. Maybe it's something that used to be there long ago?Well, that is interesting, I can not see that I am waitlisted anywhere on my page. It lists my dining preference as Second Seating, with a hyperlink to Change Dining. When I click the hyperlink, Main Seating is grayed out, since it is not available. But I'm not seeing waitlisted anywhere? Maybe I do need to call DCL directly.
DTA don't trust anyone.
