NCL Ironing Question

[Veronica Beaverhausen]

Hello. Does anyone know who has stayed in a suite if the Butler will press our clothes and is there an additional charge per item?

 

Thanks :)

The butler will take your clothes to the laundry to be pressed. And yes, there is a charge per item.

Am I aloud to bring on board my own travel steamer that I add water to and Plug in to get the wrinkles out of my clothes?

I requested an iron and ironing board and received one pretty darn fast, used it, then called to have them picked up. Worked great.

A travel steamer yes, but an iron shouldn't be carried aboard. If you ask your stewards to bring an iron and ironing board they will. The Fire Prevention Act of 1974 more or less prevents using irons without ironing boards in the hotel/motel industry, cruise lines being apart of the hospitality industry. At that time many nations worldwide passed such legislation, including the US. While many of us may pack an iron aboard, not many of us pack or bring an ironing board too... And that is the problem... the lack of an ironing board... Safety first!

will you be charged for this requested iron and board?

When we were in a A3 suite, the butlerr handled getting the laundry done. On the Jewel, the suite customers laundry gets fast tracked and is usually back the same day.

There is no charge.... However, I would leave a small tip for the steward...

Thank you Don!

generally on the first night on the ship, they have a $1 per item pressing special....first night only....and not all the time...

On our most recent cruise (Gem 2/20/10) the ironing "special" price had doubled to $2 per item.
