Aussie Gal Posted November 27, 2011 #5 Share Posted November 27, 2011 It certainly does fit into a safe though I have always left mine out on the desk as the room stewards are so trustworthy. I am sure that taking a netpad from a cabin would mean instant dismissal which wouldn't be worth the risk. Jennie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jrzebird Posted November 27, 2011 #6 Share Posted November 27, 2011 It certainly does fit into a safe though I have always left mine out on the desk as the room stewards are so trustworthy. I am sure that taking a netpad from a cabin would mean instant dismissal which wouldn't be worth the risk. Jennie That's most probably true, but my cabin steward on my last cruise told me that he is not the only one in and out of the room and that I should not leave valuables lying around. I have a cable lock for my laptop so I do leave that out. Money, passports, cell phone, and other true valuables, get locked up. In addition, if the steward has to run back to his supply room to get something and leaves your door open, or even if he's in the bathroom cleaning, they leave the cabin door propped open and anyone could take things out in clear sight.

Rare Woobstr112G Posted November 27, 2011 #7 Share Posted November 27, 2011 DW usually wants to put so much other stuff in he safe that there isn't any room for my I-Pad.....:):D:) Bob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sailingpeace Posted November 27, 2011 #8 Share Posted November 27, 2011 Than you for putting the question up on the boards. I wonder if the safes are all the same size on all the ships. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
desamparaditos Posted November 27, 2011 #9 Share Posted November 27, 2011 Just wondering if anyone has taken one and what your findings were. TIA Bill Just got off the Emerald Princess last week. There was plenty of room for IPad, camera and other "stuff". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigBit Posted November 27, 2011 #10 Share Posted November 27, 2011 Off the Sapphire yesterday. Safe had room for two iPads, cell phones, jewelry and cash. I tethered my laptop to the TV stand with a locking cable. Easy peezy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HomelessBear Posted November 27, 2011 #11 Share Posted November 27, 2011 I have often walked past cabins when the steward has been cleaning, which have the door propped open. If the steward is on the balcony or in the bathroom, it gives the opportunist access to anything that is left around in the cabin. I trust stewards, but although I would like to think that all passengers are honest, I wouldn't to risk it and so put all valuables in the safe. When we were leaving our last cruise, we did a check under the bed just in case anything had rolled under, and we found a case, half opened with no labels on. It looked as though it had been "rifled through" and then dumped! You just never know! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2pbears Posted November 27, 2011 #12 Share Posted November 27, 2011 There was room in the safe on the Star for the ipad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carefreebee Posted November 27, 2011 #13 Share Posted November 27, 2011 Just wondering if anyone has taken one and what your findings were. TIA Bill I couldn't get my ipad to fit in the safe when we were on the Caribbean Princess last month. When we were away I just kept it in it's carry case that I put in my travel bag.

Pam in CA Posted November 27, 2011 #14 Share Posted November 27, 2011 One nice thing about Princess cabins is that there are three good-sized drawers in the desk so it's easy to slip your netbook or iPad into the drawer and out of sight when not in use. Some cruiselines, like HAL and Celebrity, have no drawers or room in the desk for even a comb and brush much less an iPad. I've never put mine in the safe nor felt the need to.

Canadianknight Posted November 27, 2011 #15 Share Posted November 27, 2011 Left my iPad on the desk on our last cruise on the Sapphire... no issues, and it was never even touched. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Shelly97060 Posted November 27, 2011 #16 Share Posted November 27, 2011 Fit fine in Sapphire safe. I slipped it in first at a diagonal angle then it laid perfectly inside on bottom of safe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rockymountainsparky Posted November 27, 2011 #17 Share Posted November 27, 2011 Yes, plenty of room. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ldyandrea Posted November 28, 2011 #18 Share Posted November 28, 2011 Since there have been multiple answers re: iPad, I figured I'd also mention that my netbook computer (Acer) has always fit quite nicely into the safe if needed as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
generichandle Posted November 29, 2011 #19 Share Posted November 29, 2011 My Kindle Fire is so small I can carry it in my pocket. Still, if I don't intend to use it, it will likely go into the safe. Doug Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gubby Posted November 29, 2011 #20 Share Posted November 29, 2011 I kept my IPad in the safe on the Ruby last month. Lots of room for other stuff as weel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same here with my 11.6" Acer netbook, it fit just nicely. Any netbook larger than that most likely won't fit. (The ship I was on was the Emerald.)

bbq Posted November 30, 2011 #22 Share Posted November 30, 2011 My IPAD did not fit in the safe on the Grand. I had two different cabins on the T/A ending 11/19 and left the IPAD on the desk(s) all 29 days. Never had an issue with valuables on Princess Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
