Yes we went to Spitsbergen some years ago on Black Watch - and we are booked to go again next year on Balmoral. Naturally enough it's not exactly warm there even in summer - perhaps about 5-8 degrees c so suitable clothes will be needed. It was actually quite warm up the Norway coast but perhaps we were lucky. Best ever cruise, breathtaking scenery etc.

As for formal dining - oh yes it's certainly that on the formal nights.

Sure you will enjoy it.
