AmyD102 Posted August 24, 2012 #1 Share Posted August 24, 2012 I am leaving on the Dawn 9/7/12. My sister is cruising with her 2 year old son and was wondering if the mini-suites have a dvd player in the room. She wasn't sure if she should pack a few dvds to keep a fussy two year old at bay..lol. I tried the NCL website and searching the threads but couldn't find anything. Thanks!

PCHENG Posted August 24, 2012 #2 Share Posted August 24, 2012 I am in the exact same situation as your sister, minisuite on the Dawn with a 2 year old in tow. NCL rep. advised me there is no DVD player in the minisuite. Once you move to a true suite, there will be a large TV with DVD player and even a movie library. Anything minisuite and lower, you must play it on your laptop or tablet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AmyD102 Posted August 24, 2012 Author #3 Share Posted August 24, 2012 Thank you for the fast response! I wonder if I can bring a small dvd player I have at home. It was $20 and i keep it as a backup. Do you know if the tv's have the hookups to connect the dvd players? Thanks again! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jdvmd Posted August 24, 2012 #4 Share Posted August 24, 2012 Thank you for the fast response! I wonder if I can bring a small dvd player I have at home. It was $20 and i keep it as a backup. Do you know if the tv's have the hookups to connect the dvd players? Thanks again! I bought one just for this purpose on our Dawn cruise at the end of July and we were unable to use it. Has to do with the some setting that couldn't be changed. My husband could explain it better but whatever that needed to be changed was blocked by NCL.

rvsullivan Posted August 24, 2012 #5 Share Posted August 24, 2012 The TV's in staterooms will not allow hookups. Bring a laptop or dvd player with it's own screen if you want DVD's. Full suites do in fact, have DVD players and a library. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bakerintn Posted August 25, 2012 #6 Share Posted August 25, 2012 For the most part NCL keeps you from changing the source of input to the TVs....so even if there are available input jacks, it won't result in a picture or sound. The older CRT TVs seemed to work,but when they upgraded to the flat panel, digital TVs, the remotes do not allow you to change the input source. You can buy DVD players with 9" screens for about $50 at discount places. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
