steveaaaaa Posted July 4, 2010 #8 Share Posted July 4, 2010 Hi All! Any assistance with any knowledge is appreciated as this is the first 7 day cruise out of NYC to Canada and NE so i have no other place to refernce. Thanx :) I think you are not being told the real story here. Formal nights have been gone for over 2 years. There is a new relaxed dress code that even includes dress shorts and jeans in the dining rooms everynight for dinner except on what they designate an elegant night. Consult the CCL website for the most up to date and acurate info. Steve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

golfadj Posted July 4, 2010 #10 Share Posted July 4, 2010 The only reason I can think of to be concerned is if you want to make reservations for steak house. If correct do not worry as most nights not full. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

travelntreats Posted July 4, 2010 #12 Share Posted July 4, 2010 Where did you get the above outdated info? Steve Easily found at CCL's website ! As for incorrect info...The OP specifically was asking about "formal nights" (regardless of what it is being called now) and I agree the normal dining attire has been greatly relaxed, and Formal Night renamed to "Cruise Elegant Night", but that is not what the OP was asking about, thus my hesitance to even offer that info. Many folks will still dress up in the formal attire for those nights and actually look forward to it as do I. Stick to your Poll's :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TMWTim Posted July 5, 2010 #16 Share Posted July 5, 2010 Be sure to dress up when entering a dining room. Shorts are fine for the buffet. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pee-ah Posted July 5, 2010 Author #17 Share Posted July 5, 2010 LOL no shorts here for MDR... if i can dress "nice" for going out to dinner here... I can certainly do it on a cruise! (and yes i do have to dress in suits for the office... but that doesnt mean i won't take pride in my appearance while on vacation) As Golf said i was just looking for info on the "cruise elegant" nights as i didnt want to book the steak house on the same night :) Thank you all for your help!

nothomeonacruise Posted July 5, 2010 #19 Share Posted July 5, 2010 Despite what you are told, people do dress for elegant night. On longer cruises people tend to be more formal. I know on shorter cruises the elegant night is less formal. The relaxed dress code for the other nights is true. I saw lots of jeans and more casual wear on other nights.
