How to guess when Pirate Night will be?

[Gentry2004]

We are on the 5 night Magic Bahamian from Miami in April. Our itinerary is slightly altered according to DCL. Does it say somewhere what night is pirate night or are we supposed to just guess? Its sea day/key west/castaway/nassau. I'm assuming our menus are the 3 rotational, pirate, and see ya real soon? Trying to decide what night I want Palo (if that wasn't obvious.)

Thanks!

Its sea day/key west/castaway/nassau.

That's 4 nights.

You can make your best guess based on past Navigators.

Or you can wait until your activities booking window opens. The day they offer Pirate makeovers in BBB is the day that Pirate night is.

I'd suggest making a best guess reservation, and, if it's not right, you can visit the Palo dining changes desk once onboard to see about changing it.

sorry, the first night is leaving miami. Its a 5 night cruise. looks like from past 5 night cruises its the 3rd night. So rotational/rotational/pirate/rotational/til we meet again.

We have the same itinerary on the Magic out of Miami on 1/27. Our Pirate night is on CC day.

Have you signed into the DCL app? Go to my plans & itinerary, it should be listed there.

My Sept 2020 just shows sail away party, guests ashore and guests onboard. No pirate night or formal night info (yet).

Have you double checked your itinerary in your online account? My last Caribbean cruise it was noted on the My Plans page.

The DCL navigator app? Or is there a different DCL app? On my navigator app under plans and itinerary it just lists the guest ashore/aboard time for each port or says “sea day.” I don’t see anything about pirate night.

Thanks for the tip about the pirate makeover in BBB.

On the DCL app - My plans & itinerary. I just checked my future cruises too and it is there for one but not the other so maybe they haven't determined the date for yours yet.

We are doing the Panama Canal cruise in a few days and I called guest services. She went through the schedule and told me all of the dates for formal nights, pirate night and frozen night. I am not sure how early they have all of that info available but it was really helpful so I didn't have to guess. FWIW, I was 4 for 5 based on the days I thought they would be so they are fairly predictable if you look at old navigators.

The problem is the itinerary is changed from previous years - same 3 ports but different order and different sea day.

Thanks all. I’ll keep checking the app and website.
