Home/FAQ/ Im Thinking About Booking A Mini Cruise Will There Be A Formal Night
I'm thinking about booking a mini cruise. Will there be a formal night?
The individual cruise line and the itinerary will determine whether there will be a formal night on board a mini cruise.
Some itineraries will have a formal night on a mini cruise and others will not.
Everything depends on the length of the cruise, where it is travelling to but mostly this would be determined by the individual cruise line.
Mini cruises can be anything between 2 and 5 nights, so it would be safe to assume that the shorter durations are less likely to have a formal night than that of perhaps a 5 night cruise. Our Cruise Experts can advise you on all of these aspects at the point of your enquiry.
Onboard schedules can also be subject to change at the last minute so it is best to double check with the cruise line you are travelling with.
We would also advise you to check the style of dress on board your chosen cruise as each cruise line has different expectations, some may be resort casual, some smart casual and also some are formal every evening.

Great service at a great price
Very prompt action to link our cruise with the one our friends had booked already. We loved the small deposit required to secure the booking. All the paperwork was sent within the published timescale and the agent was able to answer my queries really promptly.
