Children's Dress Code

[JackieW]

I have a cruise coming up next week on the Caribbean Princess. My son is 14 and my daughter is 13 years old. Is there a dress code for them? What should they wear during formal dining and smart casual dining? How about during daily activities on the ship? Are jeans and sneakers allowed?

There is no dress code specific to children; just follow the same guidelines for them that you would for yourself. For smart casual just wear what you would to a nice restaurant at home. No shorts, Ts or flip-flops at dinner (they are okay at breakfast and lunch). On formal night a tie and jacket might be nice for your son, but is not required.

During the day jeans and sneakers are certainly allowed; but it is going to be hot and I'm sure they would be much more comfortable in shorts and flip-flops. Chances are they will be in bathing suites all day.

Hi JackieW, welcome to Cruise-Chat! Keep in mind that formal night is picture taking night. You may want to dress up for a family picture.

Thank you f-mattox and Sonny V. This is the first time I am going on a cruise. Therefore, i have no idea how we should dress. Your replies are really helpful and greatly appreciated.
