Thanks for the current info. It's been about 30 years since our last HAL cruise. Back then, they expected a tuxedo. A tux isn't very comfortable in a tropical climate! 😅

The last thing I would want to do while on vacation is wear a suit. Casual is my plan,.

On my last cruise, there were jeans and shorts galore in the MDR. THe dress code was not enforced.

First cruise and I don't get many opportunities to wear my tuxedo, so it is going to get worn -- twice! I don't plan to dine in the buffet. In the dining room or specialty restaurant, I will wear a jacket and tie. Fine dining deserves it.

I like the sound of that!! 🥳😃 Do you cruise with family members or by yourself? I bet people love to see you in your tux!

Hi Christina, Fellow Georgian here. I'm going on my first cruise ever in October on Nieuw Amsterdam. Thanks for all the great tips! I have a slight handicap of the leg and have some trouble walking distances. I DO have a scoot around reserved. I will be driving down from North Georgia, stopping along the way to visit friends and relatives. Can you recommend a hotel near Port Everglades for the night prior to departure and any other tips for this senior citizen? Thanks, Bill

We always like the Holiday Inn Express. It's affordable and clean. If you have more money to spend, then the Embassy Suites is really nice or the Renaissance Fort Lauderdale Marina are nice!! Any other tips...are you cruising by yourself? My mom went to the singles lunches and enjoyed those. Then the guys planned things to do at some of the ports with 1-2 other people from the lunches, and my mom really enjoyed that. You could be the planning guy! I would also get a dinner table with assigned seating...and sit with other people!

Oh dear!! That's a bummer...it would be nice if people dressed up a little bit. I think I've always seen people dressed up... do you think it was because of when you went, or where you were going?

@@cruisetipswithchristina I agree. I think it's nice when people dress up. It was a Caribbean cruise in February, so that might have been why.
