regnig Posted August 28, 2014 #1351 Share Posted August 28, 2014 Taking DD on much needed break on Fantasy 9/29. I've read through the last couple of years' posts on this thread and still need answers to a couple of questions. Exactly what are the amenities in the bathroom? Is there a regular plug at the desk area where I can plug in a power strip? Have I understood correctly - we will get both a "room key thing" AND a cruise and sail card? If so, is the "room key thing" just another card or is it a regular key. Can the cards be punched? Appreciate any and all help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As for room key - it is ur sign and sail card. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent from my XT907 using Forums mobile app Simple way to remember - Left and Port have 4 letters... Port is Left Starboard must be right because it's more than 4 letters.....:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sometimes there are trial size samples of items in the bathrooms, but not always... the shower has dispensers of shampoo and liquid soap... bars of soap by the sink. Yes, you can plug in a power strip, but make sure it is new or almost, because they will confiscate if not. Your sign and sail card is your room key and it can be hole punched to put on a lanyard... guest services or the casino will hole punch it for you and the casino will give you a lanyard if you need one. I believe that the designated smoking areas are noted in your fun times. Have fun on the Fantasy... it's a great ship! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
regnig Posted August 29, 2014 #1358 Share Posted August 29, 2014 So there is shampoo in the shower but no conditioner, another thing to pack. Thanks to all who have answered my questions. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

michelle1836 Posted September 1, 2014 #1361 Share Posted September 1, 2014 Might work better if I actually post the answer Smoking is allowed on starboard side. And the bar by the casino. But just a small part of it Sent from my TARDIS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

regnig Posted September 1, 2014 #1363 Share Posted September 1, 2014 Okay I'm going to try again with pretty much the same questions now that we have moved to a GS (:eek:) on the Fantasy. Will there be a hairdryer in the GS? Will the bathroom amenities be any better in the GS vice our original OV? Also I'm assuming the mini-bar is one of those darn "pay as you use" things, am I correct? Thanks again! :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

beckjp9 Posted September 5, 2014 #1365 Share Posted September 5, 2014 Going on our first cruise on Fantasy in a few weeks and I am curious as to how late we could show up at the port via taxi and have plenty of time to board. We live in Charleston so I would like to go work a few hours the morning of departure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NCTribeFan Posted February 18, 2015 Author #1374 Share Posted February 18, 2015 I can't believe people are letting this wonderful, helpful, informative thread languish. And I'm not just saying that because I started it several years ago. No really! :p Anyway, I recently booked another cruise on Fantasy but it isn't for well over a year from now. For those who want to know what the cabin configurations are like, whether there's a sofa, or a fridge, or other such things, I go to cruisedeckplans dot com. You can do some browsing and find a page that will take you to cabins by deck. Select your deck, and you can then see exactly what is in your particular cabin. It's a very useful site. I also like their page where you can drag decks to see if your cabin is above a club or under the galley or the Lido pool - any place where there might be noise that could be bothersome when trying to sleep. In reality, I'm semi-hoping that Fantasy will be replaced by another ship in Charleston by the time I sail from there again. I love the old gal, but wouldn't be too upset if she were replaced. I haven't sailed her since Risa left. I typically don't notice CDs unless they're really annoying, but I liked her. Will be interesting to see how things have changed under a different CD.

Dizzneefan Posted February 19, 2015 #1375 Share Posted February 19, 2015 This is not a response with shops or things to do on the Fantady, but just about our special memories of it. We went on Fantasy for our first cruise in 1992 when she was still new. Years later when she sailed out of Mobile I booked the same cabin for our 25th anniversary and we renewed our vows. We've been on many cruises, but Fantasy will ALWAYS be special to us. It's a great ship and I hope we sail her again! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
