Personal Choice dining

With Personal Choice dining, does one dressy formally on formal nights or is the dress casual?<BR>Lydia

On a 7 nt cruise w/personal choice dining(NCL)there is 1 formal night(usually the 2nd nt) and 1 optional formal nt (usually the 6 nt). Remember this is your vacation and if you don't want to dress up you don't have to(most do however). However to eat in any of the "dining rooms" you must have at least resort casual clothes(no jeans, shorts or t-shirts) for dinner.<BR>Happy Travels, CB

On Princess, personal choice dining or traditional dining is the same dress code regardless of which dining room you choose. Two formal nights during a seven day cruise.

Do you have a preference of dining rooms and do you have to make reservations each night? Do you have to let them know ahead of time each night what time you wish to dine?<BR>Don't know how PC works at all.<BR>Any info. would be most helpful.<BR>Thanks

The main dining rooms do not take reservations, just show up when you want to dine, that's PC. The speciality restaurants(like the Bistro on NCL Sun) do require reservations and sometimes a surcharge(around $10pp) but are not hard to come by(IMHO). On the Sun there was a choice of 6 places to eat without a charge and 4 with a charge. Happy Travels, CB

With Princess personal choice, you can make reservations for dinner. That's what we did when we had a larger party. We would make reservations for the following evening at the end of each night's dinner. When it's just the two of us, we didn't bother with reservations. Just keep in mind that there might be a wait during popular times if you don't have a reservation. If you are utilizing the specialty restaurants, you will need a reservation. Which ship are you sailing on?
