Creator's Key Takeaways

Don't worry if you're thinking, 'Oh, I've got to spend a ton of money on a formal outfit.' Get down your charity shop. You'll pick up a right bargain.

I think Ambassador doing a creme brulee. By far the best cruise line we've been on.

The service in the Britannia restaurant on Kunard is awful compared to the service ambassador.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Shop at charity shops for formal wear to save money.
If you haven't bought a drinks package, attend the captain's bubbly reception for free sparkling wine.
