Dragonfly2girls Posted July 13, 2011 #1 Share Posted July 13, 2011 Does anyone have a picture of what the BACK of the sail & sign card looks like? I am traveling in a group, and I want to make a sticker to go on the back of the card so that everyone knows what room everyone else is in (too many to remember). I just want to make sure I dont make a sticker that will cover any mag stripes, or other information that may be needed. A description is great, a photo is awesome!

agc291 Posted July 13, 2011 #2 Share Posted July 13, 2011 The reason there are no room #s on these cards is so that in case you lose them, someone doesnt pick them up and steal from your room. I wouldnt recommend that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dragonfly2girls Posted July 13, 2011 Author #3 Share Posted July 13, 2011 Good point about the room numbers, not a good idea. We have half a dozen pre-teens and I know they wont remember their room numbers. Hmm...perhaps I can do it code like - make sure that everyone remembers a special number - not on the sticker - and they have to simply add that number to the number on the sticker to get the right room number.

platinum.wannabe Posted July 13, 2011 #4 Share Posted July 13, 2011 I wouldn't do that either but it's pretty much the same as a credit card... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alliezona09 Posted July 13, 2011 #5 Share Posted July 13, 2011 Not sure I'd want to put room numbers on the backs of my room key? As long as it's not the room number to that key card it might be okay, I guess... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nicki61 Posted July 13, 2011 #6 Share Posted July 13, 2011 I don't think the poster wanted to put the room number of THAT card on the back. Just a list of the "other" rooms that the group is occupying. That isn't a bad idea...since the card WON'T be that rooms card. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gazingm42 Posted July 13, 2011 #7 Share Posted July 13, 2011 Remember the barcodes are used as well. So what ever you decide to do make sure you don't cover that barcodes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alabamaprincess Posted July 13, 2011 #8 Share Posted July 13, 2011 Why not put door signs on each door with the occupants name? I always have a decoration on our door (flag with a flamingo on it) so I can recognize my door. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That would be a lot of work to make several unique stickers for each card. When traveling with a group I make stickers up with everyone's cabin and stick them to old business cards.

brooklynfc Posted July 13, 2011 #10 Share Posted July 13, 2011 They should learn their room numbers b/c they will have to know what floor they are on and the first part of the room number is the floor. Tell them each to figure out a way to remember the number. Like......for me (fake room number here) 8128........I can remember the majority of those numbers b/c the deck would be "8" and I will be 28 years old on my next cruise. Although with pre-teens you might not want them knowing their room number, they might tell pre-teen boys, lol. Good Luck.......you are crazy :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alliezona09 Posted July 13, 2011 #11 Share Posted July 13, 2011 Since they're pre-teens why don't you buy them laynards with the plastic holder and you can attach the room numbers to that or on a business card, as previous stated, and slip it in the pouch? At least that way they would be seperate from the s&s card~ unless they lost the whole thing~lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brighton Line Posted July 13, 2011 #12 Share Posted July 13, 2011 Don't pre teens get a wristband during the muster drill? What's on that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brooklynfc Posted July 13, 2011 #13 Share Posted July 13, 2011 Don't pre teens get a wristband during the muster drill? What's on that? They get wristbands to show what muster station they belong to. I think they are just colored wristbands. You could write the cabin number on those since they have to keep them on. Of course I'm not sure the age range......isn't it the younger kids who have to wear the bands? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kujobie Posted July 13, 2011 #15 Share Posted July 13, 2011 how old are these kids that can't remember a 4 or 5 digit number? She wants members in the group to be able to find or call each others cabins, not just their own. Can you remember 8 different cabin numbers?

Can you remember 8 different cabin numbers? Actually I was going off this little tidbit of information. We have half a dozen pre-teens and I know they wont remember their room numbers. I took this to mean that the kids couldn't remember their own rooms. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gmros Posted July 13, 2011 #17 Share Posted July 13, 2011 I took this to mean that the kids couldn't remember their own rooms. I was thinking the same thing, why wouldn't they be able to remember their 4 to 5-digit room numbers? How do they remember their classroom numbers when they go to school? My 8-year old cousin remembered her cabin#, probably more than her parents! :p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I always have a decoration on our door (flag with a flamingo on it) so I can recognize my door. This is what I was about to recommend. If I remember correctly, you can put magnets on the doors, so it might be fun for them to bring something that they can put on their doors, not only to remember their room but fun decorations, too. ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wiskt Posted July 13, 2011 #21 Share Posted July 13, 2011 I would just print a list of names and room numbers that they can keep INSIDE the room next to the phone. They most likely will not be calling each other while around the ship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So as a refresher, in post 1, the OP speaks of many people remembering many room numbers but in post 3, the OP speaks of pre-teens not remembering their rooms. While i agree with you that in post 1 it may be difficult to remember multiple room numbers, my question around post 3 is the same as before...How old are these pre-teens that they can't remember a 4 or 5 digit number?

Brighton Line Posted July 14, 2011 #23 Share Posted July 14, 2011 12 and under or under 12 (can't remember) get the wristbands. That would still be the definition of "pre-teen" ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AXiDMonica Posted July 14, 2011 #24 Share Posted July 14, 2011 I NEVER reply to ANYTHING... been lurking on the boards for YEARS but never wanted to post. Today, I just had to... Why does everyone offer advice on what OP should and shouldn't do!?!? OP wanted a picture of the back of the S&S card. Just post the picture if you have it and move on. Anyone else feel this way? Or is it just me?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scoobysnacks70 Posted July 14, 2011 #25 Share Posted July 14, 2011 Make them each their own wristbands--you could even use the rubber ones--write the number on there with a sharpie...and just print up a sheet to give them for each room Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
