Reply To: JCCC3 – Formal Nights
That’s the same Cruise Compass I made my predictions by @SapphireMind. According to our itinerary, we’ll be in Coco Cay from 7am – 4pm, so that would leave time for formal prep with the last tender leaving before then.
Also, that Compass from September looks like there are several “casual” dinner nights. On Wednesday, we’ll be docked at St. Thomas from 11am – 7pm, so that makes sense for that to be a casual night.
If the schedule stays the same, we’ll probably be looking at:
Sunday – casual – Arrival
Monday – formal – CoCo Cay
Tuesday – smart casual – at sea
Wednesday – casual – St. Thomas
Thursday – casual (Valentine’s) – St. Martin
Friday – formal – at sea
Saturday – smart casual – at sea
Valentine’s Day could throw it off in theory, but from what I’ve read it doesn’t sound like they do anything special for the holiday, so I doubt it. Sometimes they do alter the schedule for other reasons though. On our first cruise, the first formal night was shifted from the norm due to the Captain’s personal schedule so they could still hold his reception (a meet & greet photo op).
