American Countess, May 16; New Orleans to Memphis

[CruiserFromMaine]

There was no buffet for dinner. You could room service, I believe. But our room, though spacious, had no table.

Brief mention of attire is mentioned in the "Essential Travel Guide". You should be ok; we are going to stay pretty casual on our cruise.

Thank you. I just downloaded this and it is very helpful.

I did not know that about the no dinner buffets in addition to those fixed times that seem either too early or too late. And DW often prefers the buffet. She says she gets tired of people serving her and long meals.

Thanks for the response, though it was not the one I was hoping for. I did sort of expect it. 

 

There is a buffet alternative, right? 

Remember this is Central Time.  If you're coming from Eastern Time, 5:30 is the same as 6:30 to you.

That would work I guess for the first day, but then you get used to the new time. Almost half of our cruises have been in Europe with a 5 hour or more difference, and I know we adjust to that rather than wanting dinner in the early afternoon.

And you get in a day early too, for covid testing. 
 

Maybe I missed a joke somewhere.
