NakedBeancounter Posted March 15, 2011 #3 Share Posted March 15, 2011 It IS Uk style 3-pin plugs on board...but if you have a travel adapter then I recommend you take it with you. There is good reason for this...I just came back from a cruise on Ventura two weeks ago, and because of a problem with the plane we were stuck in Barbados for two days after leaving the ship...we had our travel adapter with us, and were pleased we did, as many people had phones that they couldn't charge, and struggled to get messages home. We lent our adapter out to a couple of people as they needed to get messages home urgently, as the hotel's phones were having problems dialling International. So, if you have adapters take them with you, but you won't need them on the ship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

andyc567 Posted March 15, 2011 #5 Share Posted March 15, 2011 We are just back off Ventura and we had both UK and I think they were US style plugs in our cabin on Deck 9. There is a double UK socket on the dressing table by the ben and a single UK socket by the tea making bits and pieces. Hope this helps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scorpio41 Posted March 15, 2011 #6 Share Posted March 15, 2011 I take a short extension lead as there is little clearance under the socket to get my camera charger plugged in and I can charge more than one item at once. :) . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NakedBeancounter Posted March 16, 2011 #7 Share Posted March 16, 2011 We always take a 4-socket extension lead on holiday (which you can use to charge up many devices at the same time) and this is a handy tip if you are abroad, as you only need the one mains adapter to charge multiple appliances.
