Texas Stalker Posted November 29, 2009 #1 Share Posted November 29, 2009 With formal night and having to wear button up shirts to dinner, are there irons in the rooms? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NCTribeFan Posted November 29, 2009 #2 Share Posted November 29, 2009 No, and please don't bring one with you. As a new cruiser, you may want to read through some of Carnival's FAQ. It is often easier to find answers there than to post here and wait for answers, which will either all say the same thing or will all tell you something different! :p http://www.carnival.com/CMS/FAQs/FAQLanding.aspx Go down to "laundry service" to see the question about self-serve laundry (which is where the iron and ironing board are located). To find the location of the laundry rooms, try this site... http://www.cruisedeckplans.com/DP/Main/home1.php# Go to the Carnival section and select your ship. Under the little profile pic of the ship you should see the word "extras" to the right of the page. Click that, and above it you will see "Cabin Details by Deck." Select your deck. A new window will open. At the top, you'll see the info for locations of laundry and any vending. It's a very useful site. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nebr.cruiser Posted November 29, 2009 #3 Share Posted November 29, 2009 No irons allowed, but you can bring steamers. I never bother, just live with a few wrinkles (our clothes don't seem to wrinkle all that much in the suitcases), but some people do bring them.

Rare silentbob007 Posted November 29, 2009 #4 Share Posted November 29, 2009 There tend to be wash/iron rooms on every other floor (or something like that) with Carnival ... you can't bring your own, but at least they are available if you truly want one (unlike some other lines). Don't forget, your bathroom with shower on "hot" is also a good steamer .... ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
serene56 Posted November 29, 2009 #5 Share Posted November 29, 2009 You also dont want to wait til formal night to iron the clothes either- there will be a line most of the day Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chigirlcruzin Posted November 29, 2009 #6 Share Posted November 29, 2009 You also dont want to wait til formal night to iron the clothes either- there will be a line most of the day I always read this on here, but I've never had an issue. At most there was one person ahead of me. Still not bad advice...get it over with when you first unpack. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cruiserbryce Posted November 30, 2009 #7 Share Posted November 30, 2009 part of the reason we unpack as fast as possible is to prevent as much wrinkling as we can. Typically by the time formal night comes on the second night if we have packed them ok and put them in the bathroom with a steamy shower running all is well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beachbum6264 Posted December 1, 2009 #8 Share Posted December 1, 2009 I am on vacation, I don't iron! We send dh's suit out if need be(room steward can take this) - it's half the price of cleaning to have it pressed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
serene56 Posted December 1, 2009 #9 Share Posted December 1, 2009 Packing using dry cleaner bags work wonders. If not available try the large kitchen trash bags and layer your clothes in the suitcases Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cb at sea Posted January 3, 2010 #11 Share Posted January 3, 2010 Many of the Carnival ships have laundry rooms for the guests to use, with irons! Check the deck plans for your ship! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
