The first time I sailed on LOS (2007) was during Hannukah and they had a service and even served donuts and latkes but I think it was only on the first night of Hannukah. There were actually quite a few passengers who attended.

There's a Cruising Jewish board here where you could ask.....

I forgot to mention that it was held around 5 pm -- I don't remember where it was held but it was a fairly large room. It may well be that the service was held every night of Hannukah but we only went to the first night. I believe the time and place was posted in the Daily Compass.

We were on the Navigator last year and they had a beautiful service on the bridge over the Royal Promenade. They dimmed the lights and lit the menorah. The sang the songs once in Hebrew and then in English so that those of us non Jewish people could share in the moment. It was really a fantastic experience.

I found a pic, this is the only clear one, remember the lights were down:

That sounds wonderful. Well done RCCL.
