sargemrs Posted August 15, 2023 #1 Share Posted August 15, 2023 Our group sailing the 27th, all suites. I’m getting “antsy” for our concierge letters! I’m assuming they’re emailed, correct? First timers on RCL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LilBlackDress Posted August 15, 2023 #6 Share Posted August 15, 2023 Just now, sargemrs said: That’s a bummer! Do you know what nights would be formal nights on a 7 day? Depends on the itinerary... Typically Night 2 and Night 5 or 6 But some itineraries have been 3 and 6 I wasn't too concerned because someone shared their latter on the same ship a few months earlier, so I knew the basics What ship and itinerary? and what types of suites?

This is just a guess, but I would say 2 and 6 would be the formal nights I have seen from Tuxes and gowns down to sundresses and slacks Do what makes you happy 🙂 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare OCSC Mike Posted August 15, 2023 #12 Share Posted August 15, 2023 It was 8 days on Wonder in June... I suggest sailing Wonder if you're impatient. 🤣 Jokes aside, it was 5 days for us on Harmony last year, it will come in the time frame others suggested. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tulsacoker Posted August 15, 2023 #13 Share Posted August 15, 2023 (edited) Typically (not always) the formal nights coincide with the sea days on 2 and 5/6 (my experience) Edited August 15, 2023 by Tulsacoker 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not tuxes but suits and long, beautiful dresses for pictures! We do that every cruise, and enjoy it! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RFerrington Posted August 15, 2023 #15 Share Posted August 15, 2023 The Concierge letter has been coming 5 days prior for us, recently. Shouldn't be less than 5 days. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unless day 2 is at Coco Cay (which has been the case on our last 4 Wonder cruises), then the first formal night will be on day 3. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TylerRose Posted August 15, 2023 #17 Share Posted August 15, 2023 I will sail out on Allure 8/20-27. Last night our letter came in introducing concierge. Schedule wise- I have not found much via laptop- but- using Ap on my cell phone everything is visible from activities, meals, themes... Our week specifically info is as follows: Our formal nights are Monday & Friday. Theme wise: Sun: Casual Mon: Formal Tues: Western Weds: Seventies Thurs: Caribbean Fri: Formal Sat: White ALL of our ship booked tours have had time changes. Maya Key in particualr- a full 4 hour shift, so I expect there have been changes in all previously scheduled port times. Have a great trip! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

loman Posted August 15, 2023 #19 Share Posted August 15, 2023 For me they used my old work email that i updated in my profile 3 years prior . All other correspondence from RC was on the updated email address . Somehow the concierge had this old email address , so i didnt get the email from them. I phoned RC and straightened it out and had them make my reservations by phone. If you dont get an email in the week prior to your sail date , give them a call . 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smokeybandit Posted August 15, 2023 #20 Share Posted August 15, 2023 I've never seen more than a handful of people participate in any theme night except for Caribbean night. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have always sent the concierge an email if we haven't received one 5-6 days prior to sail date. There is no good way to contact a concierge directly by phone unless you are already on board the ship. The email for the concierge on Allure is: AL_concierge01@rccl.com 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A lot more people throw on a Caribbean shirt for dinner though, yet still a significant minority. Edited August 15, 2023 by smokeybandit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We started cruising in 1981, where you dressed in suits five nights and Tuxes the other two. Now the closest we get to participating in any formal or theme night is sitting in the pub quietly laughing our a##es off at what people attempt to dress themselves in to fit the theme.

I make my own theme nights. Oddly, it's the same theme every night. 2 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
