Agree that planning your shore excursions in advance is a must, and DIY is IMHO more enjoyable (and of course a lot cheaper. cruises from southampton is one recommended place to start planning your cruise.

I was very pleased to see a more traditional wedding dress that does not look like a coctail dress or a prom dress. I wish there were more dresses that cater to the girls and young women who want a more traditional wedding. It is very difficult now to find gowns that are not styled to accentuate the bustline. Hoping to see more gown in the future that are designed for the modest types young woman. Thaks for providing this space.

Arrange ahead for a rental car - much less expensive than the ship's tours and you can go where you want. Plus, you don't get stuck at T-shirt shops where the ship tours always take you!

Try to arrange you own shore excursions. Do research online ahead of time. It will save you a ton of money and aggravation.

So what is formal?
To be honest this is not really the old fashioned ‘Formal Cruise Night’ where just about all men wore Tuxedos and the Ladies, Evening gowns.
Today formal can be anything from a tux, to suit and tie or sports jacket and slacks; the normal must is just a shirt and tie. This varies between different lines, but if in any doubt just ask your room steward.
The Ladies just about anything that is smart or sparkly, including trouser suits and ball/evening gowns.

Many cruise lines offer guaranteed cabins, this just means a cabin of your booked grade or better. These could be on any deck or in any position on the ship.

If you want a particular cabin & position then make sure you book a cabin by number, you will not get any up-grade that is going, but you will normally get the cabin you have booked.
