Totally disagree with the statement that the room steward would NEVER take anything. The safe is there for a reason and once, on a Celebrity cruise, I left my tanzanite and diamond dinner ring on the desk. It was a few days before I noticed it was gone, admitted it was my fault for not putting it in the safe, and asked the room steward to do a thorough search in case it had fallen behind something. No luck. Security got involved and the cabin was searched top to bottom. The ring was found inside a Bernard Passman bag. However, that bag was only brought onto the ship DAYS AFTER the ring went missing. We assume he stashed it once he realized an official investigation was going to take place.
