Bob, on our recent Allure cruise all nights other than formal night were listed as casual. They no longer listed smart casual.

 

Here's the description that was in the compass,

 

"DINNER - Please note that swimsuits, robes,bare feet, tank tops, baseball caps and pool wear are not allowed in the main dining restaurants or specialty restaurants"

 

No mention at all of shorts being excluded.

Shorts, jeans are fine. Formal night was mostly dockers and button down, and sun dresses. Very few in suits or tuxedos. Who wants to pack heavy clothing for a vacation. Especially with all the weight restrictions for those who are flying in.

 

Packing light rules.

For those that have been on Allure lately - do most men wear suits or sport coats.... or are most more casual in khakis and a nice shirt? When we last cruised on RCCL in 2009 - most men were in suits.

 

Also - we are going to be doing the Chef's table on the first formal night. Would most going to that be in suits, particularly being a formal night?

We did Allure in November and I rented a tux. I was probably about 5%. I would guess about 70% were in suits or sport coats and the rest slacks and shirts. If I was doing CT for formal I would do at least a sport coat and slacks if not a suit. Personally, I find it easier to rent a tux so I don't have to pack the other stuff.

Gym on Allure. What kind of equipment and classes in the gym? Any upright stationary bikes i.e. Spinning? Circuit weights or free wts?

Several kinds of cardio machines, weight machines, free weights, recumbent/upright bikes, etc.

We got off the Allure Sunday, saw a few men in Tux, quite a few suits or sport coats, and of course just pants and shirts. Ladies were in anything from long / short dressy dresses to dressy pants or just what I call 'going to church clothes... a nice dress or pants suit. Just wear what is comfortable for you.

You should join our meet and mingle. We are putting together a cabin crawl. You just list your cabin number and you get to see several different types of cabins.

We are also on the 29th cruise. See you soon!

 

We are on the same cruise. Cant wait!!!

 

How many formal nights are there on Allure? My husband and I are cruising on

the 29th. I'm wondering how many nights we have to pack for. Thanks!
