ajcathy Posted July 31, 2012 #26 Share Posted July 31, 2012 Just returned from 20 days on the Noordam and the laundry bags are now 30.00 each. I think the unlimited package was 240.00 which I know is higher than what I had read on these boards. We did the bag three times and were really pleased with the results. All the clothes were neatly pressed and DH's shirts looked as good as if we had sent them to the cleaners at home. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Noordam did that last year -- raised the price of the "bag" laundry to $30 for the European cruises. And then when they returned to the Caribbean -- the went back down to $20 a bag.

Typhoon1 Posted July 31, 2012 #28 Share Posted July 31, 2012 We used the $20 bag, it was great. You would be amazed how much you can stick in a bag :rolleyes:. Kirk Roll it tight and stuff that bag until it is full. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

serendipity1499 Posted August 1, 2012 #30 Share Posted August 1, 2012 (edited) Thanks, both of you. We will continue to take the unlimited package....really whatever the cost it is a part of our cruise as far as I am concerned. Oh I agree...Whatever the cost it's worth it! Sometimes, after we are back home from a cruise, I find myself making a face at DH when he reaches for a HAL pressed shirt. ( they iron so much better than I do that I tend to want to keep them pristine forever.) Jenny Guilty as charged Jenny.. .As a matter of fact I confess that I only iron DH's long sleeve dress shirts..His short sleeve wash & wear shirts are not pressed by me, but are beautifully pressed by HAL..;) Just returned from 20 days on the Noordam and the laundry bags are now 30.00 each.

Krazy Kruizers..Thanks for that info..It must have been your post back in May which I downloaded..Do you think they will go back to $20.00 a bag in the Caribbean this year? In any event IMO it's a bargain.. Cheers...:)Betty Edited August 1, 2012 by serendipity1499 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
babywewe Posted August 1, 2012 #31 Share Posted August 1, 2012 I just got off a 10 day cruise on the Noordam. It was 120 for the cruise. It was worth every penny. Especially since we had a pre and post stay in Rome. It was so hot we soaked through all of our clothes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BruceMuzz Posted August 1, 2012 #32 Share Posted August 1, 2012 Most ships in the Med have been forced to raise their laundry prices. With mostly European passengers, the ship's laundry prices are lower than the prices charged by European land-based laundries. Many European passengers were saving up all their dirty laundry at home and saving money by having it cleaned onboard. This was overwhelming the laundry plants on the ships.

Mary from Hawaii Posted August 7, 2012 #33 Share Posted August 7, 2012 Yes, I guess it was nice to have the laundry service. I was shown a paper that stated $120 EACH cruise...so for the two it said $240. I was not charged that much, thankfully. Yes the laundry came back within 18 hours and was either wrapped in tissue or hung...NOTHING was pressed. I did not expect it to be. You all are mostly saying laundry and pressing. Did I miss something? I STILL had to beg for laundry bags. They should return the laundry with a new bag.:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can you imagine lugging your dirty laundry on vacation with you to save a few euros? We've used European laundries quite often, the savings would be not be anywhere near worth the hassle.

RuthC Posted August 13, 2015 #38 Share Posted August 13, 2015 $7/bag if you pay for each day of the cruise. More accurately stated as $7 times the number of days in the cruise---regardless of how many bags you send---for unlimited. NOT "$7/bag". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Landlubber54 Posted August 13, 2015 #39 Share Posted August 13, 2015 Thank you all for your responses. I had already seen the menus posted by rogerjett-photography. Great information! Can't wait to board on the 22nd! :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
