Cruise ship fan Posted December 18, 2012 #2 Share Posted December 18, 2012 Americans have a three pin and a two pin both work in the same slots. They are basically the same as ours. Although unlike our sockets which at always made for three pin, not all Us sockets have 3 holes. I would say the Voyager has 3 pin sockets. The safest would be to get a two pin though. The pins should both be vertical unlike ours which are on the side. Another option you have is the European plug. Its two round pins, but they sit further into the wall. Much of the appliances used on cruises ships use the European socket, so there are plenty of them in the room and are the only ones that you can find around public areas of the ship.

Mikey22 Posted December 18, 2012 #3 Share Posted December 18, 2012 There are two Euro and one USA plug on voyager. The Euro plug is a better option as things like Hair Straightners prefer the higher Voltage and Europe is only slightly less than Oz Voltage. Be care though we bought some cheap Euro adaptors online and they only worked in the bathroom outlet as the main plug in the cabin has a round area on the plug that actually recesses into the socket and our cheapie had a flat face. the Ones that luggage shops sell Korjo work fine, they look like this. http://campingmegastore.com.au/bluecart/store/products/products_1036_1_large.jpg They sell a combo plug on the Ship for $35 :eek: The Korjo ones are about $10-15 combined with a small power pack you are in business.

They work well and are cheap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
