Formal Nights on Jade

[island visitor]

We will be sailing on the Jade in January and will be our first cruise on NCL. On formal nights in the dining rooms do most of the gentleman wear a jacket? Was wondering if a dress shirt and tie would be ok?

There are no formal nights on Norwegian. There will be a dress up or not night, and you will see all levels of dress. There are rules for Le Bistro - no shorts - but that's about it.

 

Enjoy!

You can dress up any night, every night or no night. No formal night on any NCL ship. Few will wear a tie, some might. Rarely see a jacket.

No formal nights? I am both shocked and thrilled! So on the night that is dress up or not night, will there be a different type of menu offering lobster like the formal nights on other cruise lines?

 

Thanks!

No nothing like that. I think you can get a lobster tail if you want to pay for it but it isn't on the menu these days.

No difference in menu that I can remember. Mostly on the "dress up or not" or "Norwegian's Night Out" nights the only difference is that you often see the Master (captain) in the atrium to pose for pictures with families.

 

My take on it is less than 10% of the people truly dress up and try to act like they are on Downton Abbey. Leave the tux, suit, sport coat and tie at home. You are on vacation.

No special menu on Norwegians Night Out, the "dress up or not" night.

 

NCL removed complimentary lobster from MDR quite awhile ago and removed lobster from Specialty restaurant menus several months ago. The only lobster has a charge for it in MDR.

Thanks for all your responses. Our formal clothes will not be tagging along on this cruise. 😀

It is much easier. And you choose what makes you happy.

Hi, lobster is no longer available at Le bistro or Cagney?

 

Also what is the charge in the MDR?

 

Thanks

I think the upcharge in MDR is $24.99 and I think that is now for two lobster tails, not an entire lobster. I'm not sure it's on the menu every night.

I remember on my first "FREE STYLE" NCL cruise, back in about 2002. 10 day Hawaii on Norwegian Wind. It was the first time I travelled without a tie.

 

The first night we got well acquainted with the CD at one of the bars. So the next day comes the invitation to the Captains table for dinner the next night. UGGG, no tie. The CD loaned me one of his, it was hideous. I still have the tie I bought in the ship shops.
