<p>Think about it: no worrying about staining that shirt; no time wasted buttoning and zipping, unbuttoning and unzipping; no concerns about fashion or style, and no baggage to lug everywhere. Could this idea catch on, or will this concept be exposed in a negative manner?</p>
<p>We wonder if whether or not the salads served on board those cruises are dressed&#8230;</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>When going on a cruise, how does one dress in an informal manner properly, especially if there are no formal nights planned on the particular cruise and the brochure states that dress is casual?</p>
<p>In the <strong><a href="http://flyertalk.com/forum/showthread.php?t=885991" target="_blank">Informal Clothes for a Cruise</a> </strong>thread, FlyerTalk members impart some valuable advice about how to not be caught with your pants down and say “Oh, shirt!!!” when being socked with the news that the attire you are wearing is not appropriate for that particular cruise. Do not skirt the issue — zip on over to that thread and button up until you read the advice posted there.</p>
