Black Tie is optional. Swing, Military and other period attire is encouraged. 18) Will the ship be heated? Yes, there will be heating aboard ship.

We recommend that you bring a jacket or light sweater to enjoy the evening stars as the Flight Deck will be open, weather permitting. 19) How many people attend these dances? We sell 800-1,000 tickets for each dance. We have one of the largest dance floors in the Bay Area and are able to accommodate up to 1,500 guests. Reserved tickets usually sell out one week before the dance. 20) Is this just for couples or can singles come too? Both singles and couples are welcome at our dances. 21) Are children allowed? Teens are welcome to enjoy the dancing, but children under 12 are not allowed. Keep in mind this is a nightclub atmosphere -- there are no special activities planned for children and there are no ticket discounts
