we're currently on the new Staten Dam and uh it's a Mediterranean Cruise um so it's hot weather

on the formal nights for gentlemen it would be trousers most people just wore trousers shirt and a jacket

This is our short video on what to pack in your case and the dress code for Holland America Line Cruise Lines. We've been on Oosterdam for 7 weeks and Nieuw Statendam for a month, and the dress code applied to both, so this video will apply to all ships in the Holland fleet. Hope it helps!
