Dress
Code
Generally speaking, the style is informal, with gentlemen wearing jacket and tie (lounge suit or sports jacket is fine) and ladies smartly dressed. On ‘Formal’ evenings, gentlemen will prefer to wear ‘black tie’ with ladies elegantly dressed in cocktail or evening dress. As a guideline there are usually four formal nights on a two-week cruise. Details will be supplied with your travel documents. For many of you, hiring or packing dress suits for formal nights can be a bit of a chore, but a solution is at hand. ‘Floating Formals’ is a suit hire service, which you can pre-book by telephone from your home. When you arrive on board, your tuxedo will be pressed and waiting for you in your cabin. When the cruise is over all you need to do is leave the garment(s) with reception. It’s that simple! Hire rates start from £67 for cruises of 14 days or less. Suit hire is available for longer cruises on request. The service is available on cruises departing from Dover or Southampton and orders can be placed up to 72 hours before your sailing date. Please call ‘Floating Formals’ on 0208 518 4171 for full details and bookings. Arrangements and prices are correct at the time of going to print, and may be subject to change. Fred Olsen Looking After You We take great effort to meet all your needs from the moment you join the ship until the time you leave. All our staff are there to make you feel completely relaxed, and answer any queries you may have. We have a substantial number of single cabins on board all our ships, as we recognise that paying a supplement for a twin cabin just adds to the expense of your holiday. Or if you'd rather, we offer shared cabins (same sex only) where you may meet a new friend. With Gentleman Dance Hosts to twirl the ladies round the dance floor, to the barman knowing your favourite drink, you can be sure we'll make every effort possible to make your cruise unforgettable. We will do our best to accommodate most dietary requests on board. We currently cater for vegetarian, low fat, dairy free, lactose free, gluten and wheat free diets. All special requests must be specified when booking, and we will endeavour to source the products required, but cannot guarantee specific brands. (Some special requests may not be possible due to the location of the vessel and availability at local ports). Special Occasions Birthdays Here is your chance to push the boat out and make the best of birthdays! Start the day in true pampering style with a champagne breakfast served in your cabin. The treats will keep coming throughout the course of the day, culminating in a celebration cake served with your dinner. The recipient will receive a champagne breakfast, a birthday gift and card and a celebration cake plus a souvenir photograph as a keepsake: £50 per person. Anniversary As one of those unforgettable occasions, an Anniversary Celebration should be given special consideration. Indeed, many people choose to mark the event onboard, and our package is designed to create a luxurious feeling right from the beginning of your cruise. You will receive flowers or chocolates in the cabin upon arrival, sparkling wine and canapés served on your special day, an anniversary gift, a celebration cake and a photographic session with our onboard professional: £90 per couple. Extras We appreciate that, sometimes, a smaller gesture is more in keeping with what our guests might desire. With this in mind, we can organise a range of individual gifts as shown below. Flowers from £25 Fruit basket from £15 Handmade chocolates from £12 Champagne from £24.25 Onboard Spending Credit from £10 |
