shubsens Posted February 14, 2017 #1 Share Posted February 14, 2017 I guess Celebrity charters out the cruise boats for special sailings? http://www.usatoday.com/story/travel/nation-now/2017/02/03/leave-your-cares-and-resort-wear-behind-clothing-optional-cruise/97476666/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Orator Posted February 14, 2017 #2 Share Posted February 14, 2017 Cruise lines charter to a number of different groups. RBC chartered Silhouette for a week in January. Charters make money for the line by assuring a sold out ship. If you can and want to go, go. If you don't want to go, or can't, don't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gold1953 Posted February 14, 2017 #3 Share Posted February 14, 2017 They charter to nudests often . Crew has training prior to the cruise. Any crew member can refuse to work for religious reasons. Clothes must be worn in eating venues and all patrons must sit on towels. We were on a cruise before a nude charter and got all the details from our waiter.. who was going to have the week off Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phillygirl2400 Posted February 14, 2017 #4 Share Posted February 14, 2017 I recently read that Azamara has a "clothing optional " cruise scheduled in early 2018. I'm glad clothing is not optional in restaurants. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eel Posted February 14, 2017 #11 Share Posted February 14, 2017 A clothing optional cruise is nothing. Bliss Cruise has several "lifestyle" charter cruises coming up on both Celebrity and Royal Caribbean. Their cruises are more than just clothing optional! Just google Bliss Cruise if you are curious. Some of these are on BIG ships and they must sell them out. I have heard that many of the people that book these are looking for adult only cruises and are not necessarily there for the "extracurricular activities". But that is hearsay as I have no direct experience! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jayoldschool Posted February 15, 2017 #12 Share Posted February 15, 2017 I wish they'd do one of these over March break or Christmas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But that is hearsay as I have no direct experience! The last two Decembers, we were fortunate enough to be on the first cruise, after the Bliss cruise on the Silhouette. The crew was instructed not to talk about it but we ran into a bartender that we knew and got the story. A long story short, it's a swingers cruise so let your imagination run wild and you won't be too far off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cruise47 Posted February 15, 2017 #19 Share Posted February 15, 2017 How can you find information on a charter cruise to avoid something liked a nude or swinger cruises? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wallie5446 Posted February 15, 2017 #20 Share Posted February 15, 2017 How can you find information on a charter cruise to avoid something liked a nude or swinger cruises? If it is a charter you can not book thru the cruise line nor a TA. You have to go thru the charter Co. No worry about booking one.They don't want people on the ship that don't 'share' their ideals, any more than you don't want it. Now there are large groups that book blocks of cabins, but nothing like these groups. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blueboro Posted February 15, 2017 #25 Share Posted February 15, 2017 We were on the Silhouette cruise Thanksgiving and they had a Bliss cruise the following week. The staff did not seem to be looking forward to it...and glad we were on the week prior to the sailing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
