@ sea days to start, Aruba, Curacao, Grenada, Dominica, St. Thomas, Turks, then a sea day back

It won't be the final Sea day - probably after Grand Turk.  Departure times matter too.  If you are leaving late from one of the final ports, cross that off as a formal night.  First one should be first Sea Day.  Captain's Welcome Aboard theme .. so it generally comes early.

We are also on that cruise.  It should be the night of the first sea day and then the night of St. Thomas.  The reason is we depart St Thomas at 4:00 pm and the next night is Grand Turk and we don’t leave until  7:00.

did you join the roll call for this sailing?

Thanks cheeseclan! Yes, we are on the Roll Call.

Most likely the first night. The second formal night is a little tougher since there is only one sea day and it is the last night. That will NOT be formal. Above it is indicated that you leave St. Thomas at 4pm, so that will probably be the second formal

Just finishing that exact itinerary on the Crown, heading into FLL tonight.  Format Nights on our cruise were Night 2 (first At Sea day) and Night 8 (St Thomas).  St. Thomas had an early sail away of 3:30pm so I think that's why they chose that evening.    It's a great itinerary, highly recommend Mad Max Dune Buggies in St. Kitt's and Silver Moon Catamaran sail and snorkel in Bridgetown.  We booked both of those via private tours.   Also did the ATV Off Road Adventure in Grand Turk through Princes, that was a lot of fun too.

My husband and I are also booked on this 1/26/19 sailing. We too like to eat in the specialty restaurants on formal nights, so I figured they would likely fall on Sunday 1/27 and Saturday 2/2 and already booked a table for two at the Crown Grill for 5:30 on 1/27 and the same for Sabatini's on 2/2 at 7:30. If formal nights don't happen to fall this way no big deal as we would eat at both these restaurants anyway during the cruise.
