Algebralovr Posted April 4, 2022 #26 Share Posted April 4, 2022 Last cruise, Feb 2022 on Silhouette, the only shoes I wore once on board were my Birkenstocks. I wore athletic shoes to board and to disembark on the first and last days, just in case anyone around me wasn't watching where they were going. No one ever turned me away from anything.

I've also observed folks being denied access to the heli-pad while wearing open toe sandals. I've seen plenty of people allowed on the helipad in open-toed shoes, too, unfortunately.

39august Posted April 4, 2022 #28 Share Posted April 4, 2022 markeb - I remember that thread! She posted a pic of the shoes. They were very chic. Obviously a mistake by whomever was manning the door. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oceangoer2 Posted April 4, 2022 #29 Share Posted April 4, 2022 I can't imagine a woman's dress shoe that isn't open toed, except for the close toed stiletto which most wouldn't wear on a cruise. So if that's a sandal then I'm guilty....mea culpa! But DH would not like me wearing any kind of flip flop to the dining room...he thinks anyone's feet, including his own, are not attractive and to see a parade of them in the dining room???

It's an absolute safety violation there. They basically treat it as an active landing site at all times. There are foolish inconsistencies (you can carry things that would absolutely FOD an engine, for instance), but no open toed shoes on the helipad is universal. It probably is actually no open toed shoes in any non-public area. Close toed shoes were required on every behind the scenes tour I remember going on, even the theater. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SbbquilterUT Posted April 4, 2022 #32 Share Posted April 4, 2022 I always wear a sandal style shoe for dinner as does DH (covered toes leather shoes) along with a collared shirt and slacks - no issue ever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well to me, it's their toes, not being a toe guy, and not worrying about others, on them if...a fool and their toes will never learn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
