Deb, we’re on scenic opal 12/5, I suspect the same cruise.  The only communication I’ve received from Scenic has been this.  

 

 

“Thank you for making Scenic part of your upcoming travel plans.

Currently in Central Europe, the Rhine and Danube rivers have experienced localised instances of low water levels. Low water can give rise to navigational restrictions, which may force us to make adjustments to your itinerary at short notice.

As these restrictions occur, we respond to each event based on the situation at hand, always remaining focused on delivering your itinerary.

If we are required to make any adjustments we will communicate this to our guests as specific detailed information becomes available, both prior to, and during the cruise.

We look forward to welcoming guests to Europe.

Kind regards

Scenic Europe Operations Team”

 

As far as dress is concerned, I’m not bringing a jacket or tie and my impression is that the Aussies like to keep it casual.   

 

This Scenic Facebook group is informative.  You might consider joining.

Pete,

Thank you for the reply.  I'll look at the FB page.  Also, we received an email from Scenic today, it went to our spam folder. Please check yours if you have not received an update.

Hello,

We are sailing with Scenic on 12/3 Amsterdam to Basel.  No information from Scenic with regards to low water levels on the Rhine and if the itinerary will change.  Communications from Scenic have been poor at best.

Has anyone else cruised with Scenic? There has been conflicting information from them with regards to the dress code for dinner.  We were told back in May from a Scenic representative that the welcome and farewell dinner are "fancier" but not formal.  No jacket or tie required for men.  Now, I've just received my e-documents and the dress code is much different.  Jacket and tie and more formal for women for welcome and farewell dinners and dressed casual for other nights.

With all the weight restrictions for the airlines and Scenic, we are trying to pack in a medium sized suitcase.  Not much room for extra dinner clothing.

Any information would be appreciated from previous Scenic cruisers. We've only cruised Uniworld for the Christmas Markets and most days we went directly to dinner after returning to the ship.

Thanks in advance.
