A few Dream questions

[Ticketty Boo]

Hi All,

 

Could anyone who has recently been on the Dream tell me if the electricity is the British 3 prong plug type ?

Also are there hairdryers in the cabins ?

And do they still supply free shampoo, shower gel etc ?

And are the washing machines fed with wash powder ?

 

 

 

Thanks

you need two pin plugs for the cabins

hairdryers are in the cabin

shampoo and shower gel are free

i dont think there is a laundry

 

been on all the thomson ships and the dream is the best

Bring your own shower gel, it's not very good quality

[stevedeccaman]

If you are not on AI take on some duty free

Is it totally allowed to bring on duty free? Can you buy wine when in port and take it back on etc?

[Greece loving girl]

Yes, you bring back on board any drink you have bought, we used to bring back bottled water as well to put in the fridge

[lesley74]

Is there a fridge in every cabin on the Dream?

 

Good to hear they're still ok about this. I remember on the Topaz it was fine, can't remember with the Destiny. We went on a Carnival Cruise and they're one of the more relaxed in that you can take one bottle of wine on per person at the start of the cruise, but nothing after that.

 

I'm wondering if we did this cruise, maybe we could pop back off the boat at Santa Cruz and get a few bits and pieces before departure (usually midnight). This might make all inclusive a bit less attractive.

 

Still swithering anyway because of the price of the cruise being so high too.

We were in an outside plus and my son was in standard outside, both had fridges

Does anyoneknow what laundry prices are like on Dream? Does anyone have any experience of an "all you can fit in a bag" laundry special?

Thanks

Is there a kettle with tea/coffee making facilities in the cabins on Dream? Have to have my caffeine fix before I get going! :)

I love you guys, you really make me laugh :D

 

But no coffee in the mornings ............ oh no! :eek:

[lesley74]

The sockets - are they round 2 pin european style (rather than the flat pinned American ones)?

 

Also, is the hairdrier ok on the Dream, or should I take a travel one?

 

Iron's I don't think are allowed, is there a room where you can iron a few things? Also, are there plenty of hangers?

Oh dear those staff don't look too happy, or is that passengers? :p

Hairdrier is excellent and powerful

 

Before I used it

 

 

 

 

And after I used it

 

 

Personal irons not permitted in cabins and to my knowledge no seperate room for ironing a few things.Only option is to use the ships laundry/ironing service which isn`t particularly cheap I don`t think....Hang your clothes up in the shower room in cabin,that`ll take the creases out.

 

Plenty hangers,if not ask your cabin steward and he`ll sort you out with more.

Thanks, looks like I'll get more than I expect from the hairdrier.

 

One a serious note though, does it actually work ok, or best take my own?

 

Glad to hear the Euro is ok-ish. I think we'll just get them from a cashline somewhere over there - we've got about €90 for starters.
