Jacket and tie will be fine for a Gentleman.

There is nothing that states jeans can not be worn in the dining room.

Only shorts and bathing suits can not be worn

Here we go again. :rolleyes: Third or fourth time in the last 2 days.

There are very few people that wear jeans for dinner, most wear nice slacks with a dress shirt or a polo shirt.

NOT needed on non-formal nights, which the OP is asking about.

 

Many people here will tell you jeans are not allowed or not appropriate, but the fact is MANY people wear them to dinner on non-formal nights.

Jacket and ties are only required on Formal evenings.

 

OP, there is nothing in the "required" dress code that states jeans are not allowed on non formal evening.

 

I would not wear them and see few that do but you shouldn't get asked to leave for wearing them.

Just wear what you would wear to a very nice restaurant.

 

Plus, you will be in the Caribbean in june, way to hot for jeans.

Not the case on our last few Carnival cruises. WE don't wear jeans, but have noticed many people doing so.

And what I was talking about. I maintain that a Gentleman would wear jacket and tie.

 

Construct your own syllogism if you wish.

Its hit and miss, on my last few cruises I have only seen 1 person wearing jeans. The majority for what I have seen has been dress pants.

Thanks most everyone for your help, it is appreciated.

 

Lynyrd,

 

Thanks for your help I really needed that information. I don't know what I would have done if you didn't take the time to not answer the question, and instead relay that important info my way

[tomboyy]

I'm not a gentleman! So I guess the only thing thats fit for me would be a buffet. BTW I wouldn't wear jeans (to hot) ,but, I fail to see why, other people care WHAT I'M WEARING. Formal night is different... formal wear is expected.. like a costume is expected at a costume party.

And I respectfully disagree. My husband and my sons are all gentlemen, but wear dockers and golf shirts on CASUAL nights. They all wear suits on formal nights. We are talking about Carnival, not Cunard. Carnival neither requests nor requires men to wear jackets and ties on casual nights.

Looks like someone from another board came over here to raise a little ruckus! :D

But you see that is the difference they do not mention gentlemen

I think life is to short and there are so many more important things in life to worry about....as to weather or not some one goes to the dining room in jeans. Who cares, live and let live. If seeing someone in jeans upsets you, heaven forbid any major things happen in your life.

I have seen many men and women in jeans with a nice crisp shirt or blouse on and they look clean and neat. Maybe they are filthy rich, but not interested in acting like they are. After all, they had the money to get on the ship, let people dress the way they are comfortable.

I believe that someone would actually call it a row [rou] rather than a ruckus.

More than one, apparently. :rolleyes:

The clothes DON'T make the gentlemen. I plan on dressing-"up" (my theory is better to be over dress than under dressed), but do I care, or rather, would I be offended by someone wearing jeans? NO! I agree with the comment above, there are way too many more important (and more FUN!)things to worry about!:) Have a lovely weekend everyone!

Same with our last cruise, the whole week, i only i saw 1 women wear a pair of jeans in the dining room, out table was right by the door so we couldn't help but notice what people were wearing.

I guess your right, sense you have been on so many Carnival cruises.

One's definition of a gentleman is hardly dependant on how many Carnival cruises he's been on, now is it?

Well Mr. Kindly Chap from Lie Chester Shire in Merry Olde Englande, you should know that that was one of the reasons for the American Revolution. :-) To live clothing free or die !!!! At least that's what it says on the license plates from the People's Republic of Vermont.

 

If you choose to wear a jacket and tie to dinner on non-formal nights that is fine, but don't be surprised if someone mistakes you for a waiter .

Frankly, on Caribbean cruises, and cruises to the Med in the summer, when the temps approach 100 degrees F. (don't even mention what it is in Celsius, it's far worse), we've seen virtually no one in jeans.

However on cruises to Alaska and New England, we've seen plenty of Levi's.

 

Must be the weather.

This board, forums and threads are like a book. If you open the pages and research you will learn many things. It is a tool. I didn't even make a post for weeks after coming on CC. I learned alot. The most important thing I learnd is to research. If I could not find the answer....then I asked (posted a thread) the question.

If anyone ever needs to know the answer on cruiseline rules the best place to go is on "their" website......
