Does anybody take their own pillows?

I was wondering if anybody every brings their own pillows. If the pillows are good, I won't worry about it. I just don't want to have neck cramps all week.

Yes every cruise. It is not because I feel that the ones on the cruise are dirty i just sleep on my own better. .

Same here! I took my own because I have been having to use the memory foam pillows!

On my Mariner cruise in October, my daughter is driving to the port (I fly in from CA) and she has the same type of latex foam pillow in her guest room that I have at home. I've already asked her to bring one for me on the cruise. I've never had any problems with the pillows on the ship but I sleep better on this type.

I'm taking my own on my Sept trip cause I get to drive to the port here.

Never! It's sad that the cruise pillows are WAYYY more comfortable than my own! lol :p

I alway take my little travel pillow with me when I travel. It is about half the size of a standard pillow and scrunches real small so easy to pack. I know some folks have asked their cabin stewards for different pillows and they always accommodate their requests. One line we cruised on actually asked us in a pre cruise questionaire what type of pillows we wanted and bed duvet or standard spread.

We take our pillows!

I always bring a small pillow roll. If I need the extra height on the cruise ship pillow I will sleep on it, but usually the pillows are just fine. I then use it as my "huggie" pillow :) .

Have never taken a pillow, as we fly to port! I can manage on their pillows for 1 week!

I had surgery on my neck and sleep on a certain kind of pillow. It just makes the trip so much more enjoyable than walking around with a sore neck!

I don't leave home without my "huggie" pillow! Wherever I sleep....it sleeps! :D

Hi All,

Never had a problem with pillows, but I do take my own pillowcases from home. They are softer and just make me feel more comfortable.

When I travel by car I take my pillows but traveling by air makes that so much harder these days.

However, having said that, I will be hitting the local store in San Juan this weekend before I board to get a pillow. I've had too many pillows with lumps and bumps in them before and then there's the allergies too.

Yes, I take my own pillow and have for years. I have neck issues so my own pillow really helps out. The pillow is the last thing that goes into the suitcase.

We've found the pillows to be good on board.

Amazing!!!!!

Never even considered dragging my own pillows anywhere.....

I'm agape!!!:eek: :eek:

I've traveled all over the world and I don't leave home without my pillow. I always find a way to make room for it.

I've been told though that on our cruise in three weeks that there is a pillow menu to select from. We are staying in a GS. I still think I will take my own :D

This is interesting, never thought about taking our own, but then really hadn't had a problem sleeping on ships Pillows. My question how do you pack your pillow or do you carry it aboard. Thinking of a standard size pillow

I always take my own pillow. I don't have any problem with the ship's pillows, I just like my own.

I have a standard size pillow and either make room for it in my checked luggage, or if there is no room there I have simply tied it to my carry-on and go through airport security. I have never been asked to find room inside the carry-on and have never had anyone even say anything about it.

It is amazing if you look around airports and see how many people carry their own pillow.
