nightly dinner schedule

I'm sure this is covered somewhere, but didn't know where to look. Heading out next week on the Triumph from NYC to Halifax and St. Johns - five night cruise - how many elegant nights should we expect and are their other theme nights? TIA

There will be 2 elegant nights. There are no theme nights as far as attire.

[Traveler353]

5 night cruises have 1 elegant night. Usually the second or third night.

5 night cruises have 1 elegant night. Usually the second or third night.

We had 1 elegant night on our 5 day cruise as well.

I didn't read it close enough...I didn't read that it was a 5 night sailing.

I stole this from another thread:

 

 

"For cruises with one formal night, the formal night is scheduled for the second or third evening of the cruise, with schedules permitting. For cruises with two formal nights, the first formal night is scheduled for the second or third evening of the cruise; the second formal night is scheduled for the second or third evening prior to the end of the cruise, with schedules permitting.

1-day cruise: no formal nights

2-day cruise: one formal night

3-day cruise: one formal night

4-day cruise: one formal night

5-day cruise: one formal night

6-day cruise: two formal nights

7-day cruise: two formal nights

8-day cruise: two formal nights

9-day cruise: two formal nights

10-day cruise: two formal nights

11-day cruise: two formal nights

12-day cruise: two formal nights

13-day cruise: two formal nights

14-day cruise: two formal nights

16-day cruise: two formal nights

17-day cruise: two formal nights"

I think the reason I'm confused is they list it as a six-day cruise (5 nights) so is it 1 formal (5 day cruise as stated above) or 2 formal (6 day cruise as stated above. Anyone just back from the Triumph to Canada? TIA

[NGRidley]

even though a cruise like mine is listed for what seems like 8 days (11-18) it is concidered 7.

 

The first day and last days are not full days, and you are there for only 7 dinners

 

at least thats how i look at it
