Formal Nights

[Turk1]

Curious on when the Formal Nights are typically? On most of our past cruises the nights have been the 1st Sea day and then the Sea day the night before the last night on board.  Worth dining in Main dining room or would you recommend a Specialty  for that night?

Sorry...Liberty of the Seas at the end of August

You can take a look at the menus in the app. In our experience we like the items served on formal night, and often select a specialty restaurant on another evening ,if at all.

Not a recommendation or suggestion. Call the evening what ever they want, MDR for us.

Specialty won't be any different on Formal night than any other night. MDR will make an effort on one of the formal nights.

 

That being said, there is little formality on Royal any more. Few to no gowns or tuxes. Mostly resort casual and some shorts. On some ships, they have even stopped calling it "formal night" and just dress your best,,, which is very casual for most. You're on vacation and dress as you are most comfortable.
