NYE

[rcandkc]

Did Regent have anything special last night to bring in the New Year?

I would be grateful if any responder could also give some guidance as to what proportion of guests wear tuxedos on NYE.

based on pictures, and prior experience. there were parties on all the ships

I would love to be on Regent for NYE but most of the cruises that cover NYE start before Christmas.  I want to be home on Christmas and day after.

One would think they would be in a nice port city over night--that way one could go out for the evening and still be back on the ship (if you want)--see fireworks.  But they always seen to be out at sea at midnight.

We'll be on a Regent Christmas/New Years cruise in Dec 21/Jan 22....Panama Canal/Mariner.  That will be our first "holiday" cruise with Regent, so we're looking forward to the activities/food/entertainment/decorations on board at that time of year.  ((I'll definitely NOT be in a tux.  The first and last time I wore one was at my wedding - 50 years ago - Yikes!))

we spent New Year's eve 2 years ago in Shanghai and were in port over night.

Last year on the Mariner the ship was in Bali overnight on New year eve. The ship (Franck Galzy) arraigned a fabulous dinner and show at  local Lux hotel. I would guess that about 300+ passengers attended.

Since no one has answered your post, I will.  On our one cruise that encompassed both Christmas and New Year's, I would estimate that less the 10% of male passengers wore tuxedos.

TC2, thank you for your response.

I am currently on Explorer which sailed from Miami Dec.27, so NYE on board. Don’t know about future itineraries.
