CruiserJohn ,

I'm not sure what you were expecting but certainly this thread had made it clear for some time that while there has been some relxation of the formal evenings dress code Seabourn has not changed the dress code for other evenings. It seems to me that you were misleading yourself and set yourself up for a disappointment. Seabourn is known for being dressy -- if you wanted casual and knew that even wearing a sportcoat would "limit your enjoyment" your cruise there are plenty of other nice cruise lines that are not concerned about attire. And I rather think that stuffy hardly describes Seabourn.[/quote

 

It may not describe the cruise line but it certainly describes the answer given.

It is quite entertaining to read the posted replies regarding the SB Dress Code. SB is changing the code for a reason and that reason is that there are many of us who do not own a tuxedo nor do we want to. The stuffiness of the replies posted in defense of the Formal nights smacks of a different time and place. Who cares if another passenger looks at you with a look of disbelief because you have not "dressed appropriately". Trying to control the dress of others is absurd. And to suggest that a person who questions the rules should find another cruise to sail on is just ........

I take vacations to relax and to unwind from what I do everyday. I will be darned if I am going to be dictated to by a group of people who are totally out of touch with the reality of today. I will also be darned if I am going to have dinner in my cabin on formal nights if I do not feel like wearing formal attire of a suit.
