Dinner

For those nights other than formal what is usually worn in the dining room for dinner by men? I will be going to the Carribean in April. Are long sleeve shirts too hot in the dining room? Thanks

Katie...we just returned from a cruise on Voyager of the Seas and on the casual nights we saw everything from polo shirts (with collars) to long-sleeved shirts. My husband wore a long-sleeved shirt and was very comfortable. Don't forget everything is air conditioned on the ship. Also, we had a smart casual night where they recommended the men wear a jacket. Enjoy your trip! Vickie ;o)

Thanks Vickie. I am so excited for my first cruise and I want to get everything right.
