MDR T-Shirts on first night

[Nolalife]

How strict is the MDR on the first night???

We have group t-shirts and want to wear them the first night...I figured it's easier than waiting on luggage, etc....Plus we have the early dinning time:cool:

I think it's more lax in the MDR on embarkation day because of luggage delivery.

its acceptable as long they are not offensive in nature

This is correct because of the luggage issue. That said we have always had our luggage. If we have been to the pool or gotten sweaty we will still shower and change.

Agreed! Especially, not appreciating the "Ship-faced" ones:mad:

Interesting that I was almost positive the Fun Times stated "come as you are" on the first night. But looking them up now I can only find it saying cruise casual. So I'm guessing I am wrong. Heck I may even be remembering when lunch was served in the MDR from a few years back.

The 1st night is ultra-casual. You'll be fine.

As long as they are not offensive, you could wear them on five out of seven nights, even with a pair of Dockers shorts. The "dress up" nights require long pants and a collared shirt, but they have been lax with those rules.

FWIW, on the HAL Oosterdam there was a big family group wearing custom T-shirts at dinner in the MDR. [emoji1303]

They are more lax on the first night in the dining room since some passengers may not have had their luggage delivered to their cabins by dining time. After the first night though, you may be turned away (it happened to a friend of mine) if you do not abide by the dress code which does not include tee-shirts.

The shirts are not offensive...

We have about 50 of us in the group and we want to get together after muster to take a group picture and I don't want to rush....

Thanks for the help, I will wear the shirt to dinner, hey they will have to throw out all 50 of us...;plol

I have seen many families wear their cruise commemorative T shirts in the MDR on the 1st night....as well as other casual nights later in the cruise.

Tshirts don't violate the rules except on elegant night.

Not accurate. However I recall my kids wore nice t-shirts and never had a problem.

 

Cruise Casual Dress Code

• Men: sport slacks, khakis, Jeans (no cut-offs), dress shorts (long) and collared polo shirts
  
• Women: summer dresses, casual skirts, pants, capris, dress shorts, Jeans (no cut-offs) blouses and tops
  
• Not permitted: Cut-off Jeans, men’s sleeveless shirts, tee-shirts, gym or basketball shorts, baseball hats, flip-flops and bathing suit attire

I stand corrected, however the practice is that it is done everyday.
