Wendy The Wanderer Posted October 14, 2009 #2 Share Posted October 14, 2009 Not uncommon, not rare. How's that for evasion? It's fine to wear one if you wish, if that's what you're asking. You won't feel overdressed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You won't feel overdressed. Just don't pack plaid. Or green. Trust me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
egret Posted October 14, 2009 #4 Share Posted October 14, 2009 I can think of many things more important to bring with you than a sport coat. Especially in these days of airline luggage surcharges, leave it home. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dreps Posted October 14, 2009 #6 Share Posted October 14, 2009 The only reason reason to have a sport coat is if you think you might be cold from the A/C or if you want to dress a bit more for LaVeranda. It is certainly not necessary. I think I sometimes took a blazer that I could wear over a Tommy Bahama shirt if I was a little cold. Other times I wore a light-weight sweater and slacks.

MtnDriver Posted October 14, 2009 #7 Share Posted October 14, 2009 I have been on the PG five times and never had an occasion (or desire) to wear any kind of coat, jacket or even a windbreaker. I always take them and always bring them home still in the suitcase. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cruisedreamer1 Posted October 14, 2009 #8 Share Posted October 14, 2009 We will be on the PG this November for the 4th time and you will not need it. Yes, there are a few men who for some reason insist on carrying suit jackets, sports suits and a few women who want to "over dress" for the evening. I think those who do stick out rather than "fitting in". It is too much weight for us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emdee Posted October 15, 2009 #9 Share Posted October 15, 2009 We too have carried the sports coat for earlier sailings. But not last year and not this year. I find the restaurants cold but my DH doesnt. I think all the iced water I drink makes me feel cold and the reverse is true with the wine he drinks!!

AtMaui Posted October 16, 2009 #10 Share Posted October 16, 2009 I just got off the PG on Tuesday and was surprised by the number of men wearing sports jackets, especially for the Captain's welcome reception and then to dinner. But it certainly was not a necessity!!! On a different note, I was disappointed to see some men in shorts being allowed into the restaurants and bars after 6P.
