What is the dress code for dinner?
There are three typical dress codes aboard ships — casual, informal and formal. Most of the mainstream lines like Carnival, Princess and Royal Caribbean and a few premium lines like Celebrity and Holland America incorporate a combination of these into their evening schedules. Many of the more upscale, luxury lines have adopted an elegant casual, or country-club casual dress code on their ships. Here’s how we’ve defined each below. For more information on each line’s dining policies and dress code, click here. Casual: Slacks and sport shirt for men (no jeans); slacks and blouse, sundress or pantsuit for women. Informal: Jacket with or without tie for men; dress or pantsuit for women. Formal: Dark suit or tuxedo for men; evening gown or cocktail dress for women.
