Thanks for the information Bayohne, and I apologise to folks to whom I responded a few days back - I wasn't aware that Final Fantasy XI had a system whereby it was instanced, but only one group at a time could enter. As to being able to 'reserve' a spot, I found that extremely unlikely, but here is hoping that the maximum limit of parties with their own version of a dungeon at once is fairly large.

I'd hope, particularly with the way YoshiP has been speaking about things, that it would be like other 'modern' MMOs, but I have a little worry now after reading various posts. More so for the future of the game if it is made in such a way, rather than my own ability to get into a dungeon.
