Hi all.. I have a question for you experienced travelers. Can we (husband and I) use nice bermuda shorts with collared shirts on the dinning room? other than formal nights? I want to pack as light as I can and was thinking of bringing a nice outfit for both formal nights and then some nice bermuda shorts with nice shirts for the rest of the days. I really dont want to dress up much for the other days. Any suggestions? Thanks

I can't answer your question, but just wanted to say that I no longer dine in the dining room for that reason. I don't want to have to dress up while on vacation! I want to relax and just chill and therefore eat all my meals at the buffet on the Lido deck. I've been doing this for at least 6 years now and I'm soooo much happier and relaxed when I cruise. When are you going on the Conquest? I'll be sailing on her in May.

Dress shorts are allowed on non formal nights but not on formal nights. Here is the info from Carnival's web site.

Cruise Casual Dining Dress Code: Gentlemen - Sport slacks, khakis, jeans (no cut-offs), dress shorts (long), collared sport shirts; Ladies - Casual dresses, casual skirts or pants and blouses, summer dresses, Capri pants, dress shorts, jeans (no cut-offs). Not permitted in the dining room during the Cruise Casual dinner for ladies and gentlemen: gym shorts, basketball shorts, beach flip-flops, bathing suit attire, cut-off jeans, and sleeveless shirts for men.

Cruise Elegant Dining Dress Code: Gentlemen - Dress slacks, dress shirts. We also suggest a sport coat. If you wish to wear suits and ties or tuxedos, by all means we invite you to do so. Ladies - Cocktail dresses, pantsuits, elegant skirts and blouses; if you‘d like to show off your evening gowns, that's great too! Not permitted in the dining room during the Cruise Elegant dinner for ladies and gentlemen: shorts, T-shirts, beach flip-flops, bathing suit attire, jeans, cut-off jeans, sleeveless shirts for men, sportswear, and baseball hats.

We went on Conquest last Oct out of Texas. And yes you can wear nice dress shorts, capri length pants etc in dinning room on regular nights. We wore those on most evenings, and my husband would wear a nice polo shirt with a dress short. And i also wore a skort one evening with nice shirt. But you will see people dressed in every way on any night in dinning room. So don't worry you will be fine. It's a great ship and one of the best cruises we have had yet!!!!
