dvond Posted August 7, 2017 #1 Share Posted August 7, 2017 My Mom wants to try one and wondering which is the best night on the Alaskan cruise? Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PoohUnderstands Posted August 8, 2017 #2 Share Posted August 8, 2017 Really makes no difference. But make your reservation as soon as you can after you board. I find that I enjoy going on a sea day night. Then I am not hurrying from a tour, etc. Then only thing is that night is usually a formal night in the main dining room if that means anything to you. If you do not have traditional dining, then I also like to do the speciality dining the first night out. But then again, I am not that into the sail away party. I just make my reservation for around 7PM or so to enjoy my version of sail away. Enjoy your cruise and that special dinner! Pooh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OCruisers Posted August 8, 2017 #3 Share Posted August 8, 2017 Many prefer an At Sea day night but that is when the Formal nights will normally be in the MDR if that's of importance to you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just wondering if there were any specialties on certain days? We will be back on ship for dinner for all 3 stops so no worries there Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jerseyaxn Posted August 8, 2017 #5 Share Posted August 8, 2017 The first night on the ship is the least crowded and some have specials like a free bottle of wine etc.We do this our first night every cruise Sent from my SM-G928T using Forums mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
framer Posted August 8, 2017 #6 Share Posted August 8, 2017 The last night of the cruise. The dinner in the MDR is like TV dinners, no I take that back, cheap TV dinners at best. Their turkey is yuck and the meatloaf is like my sister in laws double juck. I always book CG on the last night. framer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jennybenny Posted August 8, 2017 #7 Share Posted August 8, 2017 We usually book the first night once on board. Then depending on how long our cruise is, we will book another couple of nights. You could wait to see what the menus are and if you don't like something one night try out specialty dining. I think you can go to the dining room and request menus for other nights. Sometimes you can go to Passenger services and ask, but I don't really know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
satxdiver Posted August 8, 2017 #8 Share Posted August 8, 2017 Just wondering if there were any specialties on certain days? We will be back on ship for dinner for all 3 stops so no worries there We just left the Ruby. The MDR for dinner offered a special selection of AK cuisine. The CG had a special added AK menu to the regular menu. Salmon and halibut were offered as I remember. Formal nights were Sunday (1st day and sea day) and Thursday (Ketchikan port day but left the pier at 1 PM). We did the CG on Wednesday, the day the ship visited Glacier Bay earlier in the day. Because we did not visit a port, it seemed more like a sea day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

American Dinner is my least favorite and going to Sabatini's the last night makes the final meal on board a little more special. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
