Sarahgraci Posted September 22, 2010 #1 Share Posted September 22, 2010 This is probably going to go down as the lamest CC thread, but I have a question and I'm sure someone knows the answer :) I'm boarding Freedom of the Seas on Sunday and want to know if they have straws in Windjammer for the lemonade, water, and tea. I really don't remember from my LOS trip last year. I tend to drink more when I have a straw, and I need to be especially sure to stay hydrated on this trip. I can grab a box and take some with me if they aren't available. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bmarchal Posted September 22, 2010 #5 Share Posted September 22, 2010 Straws are everywhere. Since you have a special need, if you don't see them, ask for some. Don't be shy. Enjoy your cruise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sanitary since they never touch the actual straw and the top bit is covered until you drink from it. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shellito1012 Posted September 23, 2010 #16 Share Posted September 23, 2010 I think it is a great question, lol. I have a toddler who doesn't use a sippy cup - only straws. I was going to pack some but now it appears I don't have to. I never thought to even ask that question here! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sanitary since they never touch the actual straw and the top bit is covered until you drink from it. :D And for similar reasons they always ask the guest to remove the lid of the Souvenir Coke Cups before refilling them. They really are pretty conscientious about sanitary practices [at least in public]. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
