Do you know about the Carnival FAQ's on their website? Lots of great info there, including dining room attire. https://help.carnival.com/

I have to ask, though. You're a Carnival Gold level cruiser (according to your signature) and you aren't familiar with the MDR dress code?

Question #2: Does "LOL" mean something different to you, because you sure do use it a lot?

Final observation: Yesterday, in another thread, you said you were going on the Magic in a few days. Today, you're going on the Victory in a few days. :confused:

Ethel, could you explain what you think LOL stands for?

Before that, it was the Valor. Before that it was the Breeze.

There seems to be no question about the persistent LOL.

It's readily apparent who Ethel (and her husband Harry) is - all you have to do is read their posts.

Oh my!

There is no dress code. I've seen shorts on Elegant nights and bathing suits on casual nights on many Carnival cruises.

For the guys, if you get some lip for wearing shorts on elegant night, here's the alternative:

It's really true I have been on the Magic and Breeze..... there isn't a dress code....wear whatever you want.... on formal nights we had people in basketball shorts at the next table.

My 12 year old nephew was was required to change out of his nice sleeveless shirt before he could go to the MDR for lunch, yet I have seen people in bathrobes in the MDR at dinner. I guess it just depends on who is working and whether they see you enter.

Ethel, could you explain what you think LOL stands for?

She keeps using that word. I do not think it means what she thinks it means.

"Hello. My name is Inigo Montoya. You killed my father. Prepare to die."

:');)

Perhaps she is an LOL (little old lady) who is LOL (laughing out loud)?

My initial impression aligns with your thoughts, so when I responded to her snippy comments to me in another topic and my auto-correct spelled "Ethel" as "Edsel", I took it as an omen.

I don't know who you are Ethel, but thanks for the entertainment!

Or it's somebody totally punking us all. She (or he) went to a post of mine on an RCI Roll Call, and invited herself to lunch with a friend and myself. A little stalkerish, IMHO.

Non formal days just about anything goes, formal days, something casual and respectable is fine

There is no dress code. I've seen shorts on Elegant nights and bathing suits on casual nights on many Carnival cruises.

Actually there IS a dress code. There are a lot of self absorbed people who feel that rules don't apply to them....the mindset of "Its my vacation and I will do what I want to do. I don't care about the rules, its about ME!!!!"....its actually pretty sad people go thru life this way

If you have a dress code, and choose not to enforce it, then you do not have a dress code.

Searched and couldn't find anything related to dress code? Is she kidding. There is a thread on dress code almost every day, maybe every 2 or 3 hours.

Perhaps she just likes to hear herself talk, or else is trying to run her post count up, fast.

Dare I say LOL:)
