Tiki Cruiser

Thank you RestingBirds. Question - How do people have the proper attire for the theme if they don't tell you what it is before you pack? Are they just trying to sell things onboard? Also, if there are 2 formal nights, do you have any idea why they wouldn't just let people know that again, before they pack? Are they just trying to sell formal wear on the ship? So there really IS an ice rink! yay! Is it actually open for skating? Or is it there for their own shows? On one thread, someone said - You can skate, but you have to wear pants. - LOL Do you have any idea what that is supposed to mean? I literally never wear pants. When I ice skate, I wear tights and a skate skirt. Was he joking? I still can't understand why Royal Caribbean wants everything to be a surprise when you get onboard. It's not that I want to plan every minute solid with activities as one blogger above thought I was saying. I want to know everything there is to do and see and be able to prioritize as well as be prepared for clothing wise or otherwise. Is my view of all this really that crazy? I know I've asked a LOT of questions. I appreciate any answers you are willing to spend your valuable time answering! Thank you!! Tiki Cruiser.

I am a planner. The cruise for us is not a yearly thing. It's probably a once in a lifetime thing. I would think they'd offer as much information as possible to plan your trip. Are there theme nights? Formal nights? When is the ice skating rink open? Does it cost extra? Is there actually one on the ship? Their website only skims the surface of every subject. It's all wild music and flashes of activity. So in general, I'd like to know if anyone knows how to get a LOT of real information ahead of time? I don't want to get onboard half lost and spend my first day learning everything I need to know to plan my next 6 days. Thank you!
