My sister and I are planning on doing the Panama Canal cruise next year. We have questions regarding formal dining nights. How many formal nights do they normally do on a 14 day cruise? Any special tips for this cruise? Thanks!!

Hands down this is the best sailing they offer. Typically, there will be two formal nights and one semi-formal. I would say more people paid attention to what they wore several years ago compared to more recent trips where there was very little dress-up. I've seen Armani tuxedos to tuxedo t-shirts and most everything in-between. NOT going whole hog and having to carry an extra suitcase just for formal clothes is just fine.

This is our dream cruise
You didn't specify the cruise line (Disney?) but we took the Celebrity version (preferred the itinerary) and it was great! This is one of the best "long" duration cruises. The dining question has already been answered, but I'll add that "formal" ain't what it used to be on cruises anymore; men don't need suits and women don't need dresses.
Going through the Panama Canal is wonderful but feels like going through a sweat bath , extremely hot and humid.

We've booked on Royal Caribbean for a 2024 Canal cruise. Tampa to LA. Looking forward to it.

Which Royal ship is on that itinerary?

Radiance, which I've never been on. Not even for a day tour. My father-in-law is the Royal loyalist in our family, and that's the one he wanted to do.
