I love the mega-ships! Any one over 100,000 gross tons, less than 10 years old.

I agree, Oceania’s policy seems to work best. I enjoy this cruise company the most because there’s much more flexibility in dress.

You can dress nicely for dinner without being too formal.
we sailed NCL from Houston & they had every kind of dress some showed up to dinner in sweats. Jeans were allowed on the Texas cruises but some take the “freestyle” cruising to another level.
We now prefer Oceania, casual dress and open dining. People do dress nicely for dinner …no shorts or sweats in the dining room.
There is always one who will try to buck the system but on the most part they are not the NCL type cruisers on Oceania

For us, it’s definitely the QE 2. However, now that we have children, we really enjoyed the Norwegian Sun. The kids’ programs were very good. And the Freestyle Cruising was great. We always dressed up for meals, but we appreciated not having a pre-set meal seating.

Lots of people are dressed up on NCL. Anyone wearing jeans to a dining room at night would stand out….

down dressing for dinner is lowering the standard! what next shorts or maybe come as you are lets go nude. be real dressing up adds to the over all treat of going on a cruise. we never dress up as much at home for dinner we are not JR Ewingbut we do not sit in shorts and no shirt either.

Differant strokes, differant folks, we love NCL for the relaxed feeling. We dress for a couple of formal nights, we dont wear jeans, but we also don care if some one wears neat jeans with a neat top. For us NCL’s fun, but nice, something for every one, perfect no, nothing is, but it is the cruise line that fits our needs better than others.

I agree. Even though dressing up can be a hassle, it makes the cruise experience much more special. It feels festive and very special. I think NCL is making a big mistake.

We have taken several cruise and one thing we like is the way people dress for dinning, NCL is now allowing jeans, they are lowering their selves even more, we will never travel with them.
