Reijo Posted January 20, 2020 #1 Share Posted January 20, 2020 My husband and I will be going on our first Celebrity cruise in March. We will be sailing with two other couples. Two of us (two couples) are Diamond Plus with RCCL, the other couple only has two cruises with them. Will Celebrity allow us to all board together as RCCL does? While I'm aware of the dress attire on Royal ships, since Celebrity is more upscale than Royal are men required to wear jackets on formal nights? I know it's suggested attire but just curious as to what people on this cruise line does. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare cruisestitch Posted January 20, 2020 #2 Share Posted January 20, 2020 (edited) You can all board together. jackets are not required at any time in the MDR, although many men choose to wear them, especially on the dressy nights. unlike Royal, they no longer call them formal nights. You can see the descriptions on the Celebrity website. as Diamond Plus you will be Elite on Celebrity Edited January 20, 2020 by cruisestitch 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reijo Posted January 20, 2020 Author #3 Share Posted January 20, 2020 Cruisestitch, thank you so much for your quick, to the point, response. I appreciate it. Sounds like it is just like RCCL as far as attire. Again, Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For men, there will be tuxedos, suits, jackets with nice shirts to just nice shirts with slacks. The whole range of clothing can be seen. The term that many use to describe these nights is country club casual and up. Enjoy your cruise. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gfkcruiser Posted January 23, 2020 #7 Share Posted January 23, 2020 Was on Royal in August after a long absence. We were given Diamond status on Royal and had no drink package. I was impressed with the Diamond Happy Hour as compared to Celebrity. A longer time and much larger drink selection. Other status perks did not compare to Celebrity. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't know if you already have done this - but you need to call Celebrity with your C&A number and have them set you up a Captain's Club account with the appropriate level - it does "transfer" but it's not automatic. If you have done it - then you are good to go! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reijo Posted January 24, 2020 Author #9 Share Posted January 24, 2020 I did mean to check into this. I have printed my Xpress Pass and it does show Elite. Does that mean that all is good or should I call? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As a frequent traveler on both Royal and Celebrity, my impression is that Celebrity is dressier at night, especially on non-chic nights. That is not to say men absolutely must wear a jacket at night on Celebrity. I include my own husband in this because his favorite attire at nights on the ships is Greg Normal polo shirts and slacks. He compromises on chic nights and wears a long sleeved shirt, but no tie. He also does this to eat in Murano where guests do seem to be dressier. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You have described my husband’s attire right down to the Greg Norman shirt. 😉 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When we lived in Portugal, one of our favorite restaurants was named Reijo! Honest. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
