12 night cruise, when are formal nights?

[sross6019]

We will be doing a 12 night cruise next year. I know there will be 3 formal nights. What days will they be? I suspect the first one will be on the first full sea day, but what about the other 2?

Our 12 had 3... The first was on the first full day at sea. Our 2nd was the night of our 4th port (Day-7). The 3rd was the next to last full day at sea. It may seem like a long time between the 1st and 2nd, but we had long stops in Antigua and St.Martin on those days. Our 4th stop, St.Thomas was a standard day 8-5, so they had it then.

 

What ship are you sailing and what are the ports? If your ship will be in port during the dinner hours, then you can count out those nights for formal.

It really does depend on your itinerary. Usually the first full sea day and the second last night of the cruise will account for two of the three nights, but even that is subject to adjustment depending on the particular cruise itinerary. We have been on a few (longer) cruises when the first formal night was not held until a few days into the sailing just because of the port schedule.
