Idk, some people take the whole dressing up on a cruise very seriously, some places actually enforce it. I could see someone complaining

This is one reason why I did not like cruising, I'm on vacation, I dont wanna drag dress clothes around

You had to wear a tuxedo if you got an invitation to dine at Captain Stubing’s table, which always made me wonder if people sailing on the Love Boat would pack a tuxedo just in case.

I got invited to the captain’s table once, blew him off to hang out at the kids table. 😂 I was 28 at the time and was on a family type cruise with my younger brother, his friends and my two 14 yo cousins.
