ERNLYN Posted August 15, 2011 #1 Share Posted August 15, 2011 Can we bring on board the Pride a travel iron? I know Carnival offers a self-service laundry room but is there a cost to use their iron and ironing board? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joepeka Posted August 15, 2011 #2 Share Posted August 15, 2011 Travel irons are not allowed. The laundrette's on each deck have iron's and ironing boards that are free of charge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
westview1 Posted August 15, 2011 #3 Share Posted August 15, 2011 There is no cost to use the iron/ironing board. you can find them in the laundry rooms. I always bring on the wrinkle release spray and it works great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Isa65 Posted August 15, 2011 #11 Share Posted August 15, 2011 One of my last sights upon debarkation from the Victory is an older lady standing in the lounge, looking lost with an iron in her hand. It has just been returned to her and by the look on her face I can imagine her thinking: "Why did I bring this piece of junk anyway...?" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
