Xmas markets cruise 6th Dec Aurora, black tie nights

Hi Guys,

We are off on Aurora 6th December for 10 day Xmas markets cruise, my wife asked me how many black tie nights...and I said I will ask the kind souls on Cruise critic, if anyone can advise we would be very grateful.:)

R722 - 10 night cruise has 3 Black Tie evenings one of which has a Black and White theme. There is also a 60s/70s Themed Evening.

Regards John

Thanks John, thats in line with what I thought and hoped for.:)

Having looked at long range forecast it looks like it might be a bit stormy while were away...just hope Zeebrugge and Amsterdam are going to be okay for getting in, I hear they can be a bit iffy if weather is rough.

Where did you see that forecast please? I would like to take a look. We have missed Bruges before but never Amsterdam. Would be a real shame but it happens.

It defiantly looks very cold for the trip. Met office for Oslo the daytime high is minus 4 with a high of minus 8 for evening!

Hi Egelsbrech, I look at the following:

It was mentioned on this good board somewhere a while back.:)

The wind speeds are looking to be strong according to the forecast...you can see up to 10 days ahead....lets hope it turns out to be incorrect and all is good.:)

As I said on another thread we did this cruise last year and the whole cruise was as smooth as could be - even the North Sea was as calm as a millpond.

Hi Annieuk, fingers crossed its the same again.:)

I am really looking forward to the Cruise, dont mind it being a bit bumpy, just hope we can get into the Ports...having missed some in the past (like most of us I'm sure) it would be nice to get into them all...but I am prepared for whatever happens.:)

Great thanks. Hope it is wrong as you say.

Yes we have been very fortunate in the last as well so here is hoping we are again.
