How cold is it on the ship?

[TDERadulski]

I am starting to pull out my clothes for our 4 November 3 night Wonder cruise (Finally!!) I am looking at wearing three sleeveless outfits for dinner each night (one with a skirt, one a dress, and one pantsuit). Will I freeze in the dining room and in the common areas of the ship? I plan to bring a light sweater in case it is unbareable, but my white sweater won't match the mostly black outfits I am planning on.

Thanks in advance for your help!

It was absolutely freezing IMO on the ship when we sailed in 2002. I'm packing all long sleeve outfits this year, so I won't freeze. Now, I'm a usually cold person, so I don't know if I'm a good judge. Even my DH (who is rarely cold) thought the dining rooms chilly in short sleeve polos.

I'm always the first person to get cold, so I may not be the best one to ask, but I was really cold onboard during dinners. this was especially noticeable when I was wearing a sleeveless dress. However, I was cold to the point of misery in Parrot Key, too. I would have left both dinners to go change if I had packed something with long sleeves that was appropriate.

For our Nov. 6 Magic cruise this year, I'm bringing a wrap to wear over dresses/blouses when I need it. I thought about bringing a sweater, but I coudln't find just one that I thought would work with everything else.

I was cold in the evening but the dining rooms weren't as cold as the theater IMO. I ended up buying a DCL sweatshirt jacket which I now wear to football games and such. It didn't really go with anything I was wearing in the evening but it was a way not to pack a jacket and I brought home a souvenier. I wore it in the shows but didn't have to wear it at dinner.

It all depends on the person..I was never cold aywhere on the ship and in my opinion the rooms didn't get cold enough at night for sleeping. But I also have my a/c set at home on 60 degrees...

I wore a sleeveless dress, always made sure I had a sweater or wrap for just in case. The airconditioning is set pretty low. It felt cold to me, but was alot more noticable after being sunburned a bit.

Right there with you! I never got cold and our room was HOT. I will say the year before when we were in 6556 the room was chilly in the early mornings (dial set all the way to the left). 2106 never got cold at all and I had them come check it twice (we also blew fuses twice just using a hair dryer at the vanity so I think something was not quite right in that room)

Thanks for the much needed advice

Only place I felt COLD was in the Walt Disney Theatre. Everywhere else was fine.

Thanks for the input. I am one of those people who tends to get cold (unless of course I have had a few glasses of wine!) I will be certain to pack an extra sweater.
