Heard of some still going out today. I think it largely depends on how quickly your local DFR can process them as to when they go out. Fingers crossed for you!

Fashion trumping reading in a few instances then because the joining instructions clearly spell out smart casual as collared shirt and slacks.

Yeah you only need smart casual for your arrival and for breakfast the day you leave. Flight suits are the go all other times.
