Thread: Ameninities on ship?

Irons and candles are a no no on cruise ships. I think there might be an iron in the self-sevice laundry areas on some ships. Not all ships have them...


B T W...Becky uses '' Downy Wrinkle Releaser. ''

Irons are not allowed on cruise ships, but i know people who take travel irons, use them without incident and hide them because they go out of their way to be very careful with them.

I'm not very good at breaking rules. Makes me uncomfortable.

I either use the wrinkle releaser spray, or send things for pressing, shich is VERY affordable.

I take a small travel iron (not allowed),but I am super super careful with it.

The face basin and faucet was swanky(cool) & very modern. I have seen them in Home Depot since that cruise.

And the pictures!

I always take travel size items with me along with the standard over the counter meds for every situation. Carnival had a large dispenser in the shower with shampoo and body wash. On the bathroom counter there was a basket filled with soap, lotion, disposable razors and a packet of orange power drink that was similiar to Tang. This stuff was really good, so I asked my steward for a few extra packs. He placed two packs in the basket everyday, which I believe was supposed to be a one shot deal. He was very happy on the last day. Here's a bad shot of the bathroom with the amenities basket. I think this was after I took out some items for use or put some in the medicine cabinet.

What is really interesting is the differences between the Carnival and the Celebrity bathroom! (Now ours was a suite, but still....)
