So that people stop asking about Elegant Night...

[travelntreats]

travelntreats.....I totally agree with you. Who quit and made the OP a BB HOST.....pleeeeeze:rolleyes:??

And whats worse is the OP did not give out totally accurate info, so perhaps the question needs to be asked a GAZILLION times ! :eek::D:)

Someone on Cruise Critic gave out wrong information? I find that hard to believe. :rolleyes:

I hesitated challenging the OP's incorrect clarification.....but WTH !

Your first Elegant Night will be the first day at sea.

 

If you are on a cruise longer than 5 days, your second Elegant night will be two nights before you return to the ship's home port.

 

For example: on Carnival Legend, the first Elegant Night is the first day at sea; the second Elegant Night is the fourth stop (Roatan).

 

Hope this will cut down on the number of threads on this topic that are out there!!!

 

Thank you for the info ... please see my itinerary

Thanks for reminding me why I didn't read these boards for such a long time...and why I'll probably take another long hiatus. Peace.

The OP didn't really give accurate information.

 

From Carnival

 

Cruise Elegant Evenings

The length of the cruise determines the number of Cruise Elegant evenings in the Dining Room. The first Cruise Elegant evening is scheduled for the 2nd or 3rd day of the cruise; the second Cruise Elegant evening is scheduled for the 2nd or 3rd day prior to the end of the cruise, schedules permitting.

 

* 1-day cruise: none

* 2-day to 5-day cruise: one Cruise Elegant evening

* 6-day or longer cruise: two Cruise Elegant evenings

[PhxRain]

I have a 9 day cruise next year, here's my plan - take 2 nice outfits/dresses because there will be 2 dressy nights on the 9 day cruise. Then hang them up when I get onboard and wait for the nightly paper to tell me if the next night will be dressy night. That way I won't have to worry about day 2, 3, 5, 6 OR 297!:D

[MamaParrotHead]

I'm fairly sure that that isn't accurate information either. I've had 3-7 day sailings and all of my elegant evenings haven't followed that pattern either.

When would my Formal night be on a 10 day cruise?

[somekevinguy]

I think that is so awesome that someone starts a smart ass mean spirited thread like this acting like they are so smart and then what they post is totally wrong. It doesn't get any better than this.

[PhxRain]

When would my Formal night be on a 10 day cruise?

 

OMG! :eek:Please don't say "formal night"!!!! We'll have Stevaaaaaaa in here blowing a gasket about it being "Elegant Night" not "formal Night"! :rolleyes: ssshhhhhhhhhhh

[Sargent_Schultz]

Carnival still uses both terms on their website. Stevaaaaaaa Who?

[steelerfan27]

Thank you for explaining this. I never know what the dress schedule is. I love to get gussied up on a cruise. I don't wear much other than my housecoat at home.

Sorry, I did miss an "e" in the Sarge. I meant StevEaaaaaaa, the poll guy! LOL:rolleyes:

Actually I wouldn't know. ;)

 

Sorry, I was playing off of someone who (used to?) (almost) always posts John Who when John Heald is mentioned. :)

HA! Yeah, still too new to have caught that one. Sorry. LOL

You just HAD to go there!? LOL:D

[Cuizer2]

I have to say, the harsh tone of the OP (whether intended or not) makes me want to open three new theads to ask about dress code on elegant nights just for the hell of it!! ;)

 

Don't worry, several other people, who did not read this thread, will.

[CBTwi]

Ive been doing a lot of research and I can't find a consistent answer because it seems to change so instead of asking when the formal night will be on a 4 day cruise, can someone tell me how you find out when you get there which night is formal night? Will it say so on the capers?

Yes, you will find this information in the ship's newspaper (Capers).

 

Here, you can see it listed right under the word "Dinner" ...
