What to Wear on a Disney Cruise

I recently got back from the most amazing Disney cruise on board the Disney Fantasy.   The number one question I was asked before we sailed was, “What should I wear while on board?”  While requirements vary among cruise lines, here’s what you will need for your Disney Cruise:

During The Day During the day shorts, t-shirts and flip flops are the rule are your Disneycruise.  Whatever you would normally wear during the summer is fine — even in the restaurants.  You will want to make sure you have a pair of comfortable shoes for any shore excursions as well as a cover-up for the pool. Dinner on a Disney Cruise is generally a “cruise casual” affair.  This means pants, collared shirts, sundresses and the like.  Some passengers choose to dress up a bit more. Shorts, swimsuits and tank tops are not allowed.  Dress at Palo and Remy is more formal with more stringent requirements. Most cruises offer a theme night and either a dress-up or formal night.  While the dress code each night will be in your Navigator newsletter, here’s what you can expect on your Disney cruise:

On 3-night cruises:

• One cruise casual night—no shorts, swimwear or tank tops
• One pirate or tropical night (deck party)
• One “dress-up night”—jacket for men, dress or pantsuit for women

On 4-night cruises:

• First night: cruise casual—no shorts, swimwear or tank tops
• One pirate or tropical night (deck party)
• One “dress-up night”—jacket for men, dress or pantsuit for women
• Final night: cruise casual—no shorts, swimwear or tank tops

On 7-night cruises:

• First night: cruise casual—no shorts, swimwear or tank tops
• Three additional “cruise casual” nights—no shorts, swimwear or tank tops
• One pirate or tropical night (deck party)
• One formal and one semi-formal night—formal wear for men: tuxedo or suit; for women: gown or dress; semi-formal wear for men: suit/jacket; for women: dress or pantsuit.

Dress code at Palo on all cruises:

• Men: dress pants and shirt or jacket
• Women: dress or pantsuit
• Please no jeans, shorts, capri pants, flip-flops or tennis shoes

Dress code at Remy on all cruises:

• A tuxedo or jacket (sports or suit jacket) is required with dress pants for men. Ties are optional.
