General Cruise Discussion

Cruise etiquette
I'm going on an AMA Rhine cruise with my Mum in a few weeks.

Do I need to dress up for dinner?

I'm thinking maybe linen trousers ... but was hoping to keep my luggage minimal (that is, single suitcase) as I'll be carting it by train from Berlin-Essen, Essen-Brussels (with 2 train changes) and then Brussels-Amsterdam ... oh, and from the cruise to Basel Hbf and then on to Zurich and the airport.
River cruises are pretty informal. You might have a "Captain's Dinner" one night which might be slightly dressier then the other nights, but it's still a lot less formal than some ocean cruises.

Thank you.

My only cruise thus far (as I don’t count the ferry from Oslo to Cooenhagen!!) was a 6 night Disney cruise, so the dress standards were much more do what you want and formal meant wearing your sequinned Mickey/Minnie ears!! 🤣
