Ahoy Tammy!
It's wonderful to hear from you again! Since January is already in the books, it won't be long now before you are pulling out the suitcases to pack your family up for a wondrous adventure on the high seas! I know you are excited for the fun to begin!
I'm happy to let you know your options for formal and semi-formal night will be just fine so you can add those clothing items to your packing list!
When you are onboard, there will be many
food options available for your crew! Lunch and dinner is available in the Oceaneer Club and Lab for your eight year old. There are set times it is served so you will want to check your Personal Navigator, the daily cruise newsletter, for the specific times each day. It will be clearly listed in the Oceaneer Club and Lab section along with the other activities offered. Food is not served in Edge or Vibe so your older two will have to leave the clubs to grab some food. Topsider's on Deck Nine offers a buffet style menu and is open for all three meals. Another choice they might like is the quick service options also on Deck Nine-Pinocchio's Pizzeria, Pluto's Dog House, and Goofy's Galley. These restaurants offer menu items such as sandwiches, burgers, chicken fingers, hot dogs, pizza and french fries. At least one main dining room will offer breakfast and lunch as well. The Personal Navigator will be you go-to guide for all the ship's happenings and operating hours so be sure to check it often to stay informed.
I hope my answers help, Tammy! If you need any other assistance, please let me know!
Have a magical day!
Nancy
