Carol28 Posted November 20, 2013 #1 Share Posted November 20, 2013 I'm sailing on the Westerdam in an SA suite. Does it have a corkscrew or should I bring one? Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sail7seas Posted November 20, 2013 #2 Share Posted November 20, 2013 (edited) More often than not there is a corkscrew in the mirrored shelving area above the buffet. I always have one of the inexpensive travel ones in my suitcase if we should ever want it...... Go to any decent liquor store and get one of the inexpensive pull apart plastic corkscrews so you'll have it if you want it. Why wait for steward to get one if your cabin doesn't have one?

Carol28 Posted November 20, 2013 Author #3 Share Posted November 20, 2013 I have lost more corkscrews going through the airport security, not thinking about putting it in my suitcase. One time I had to search throughout Quebec City for one that I was willing to buy. This time we are taxiing to port so I'm good to go. I no longer have a low class plastic one, so I'll try to find one at a drug store tomorrow. Thanks for the advice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aliaschief Posted November 20, 2013 #4 Share Posted November 20, 2013 A corkscrew has been available in our SA booked suites. If not just ask the concierge. Your paying a lot of money;so just ask them and they usually take care of all your needs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
innlady1 Posted November 20, 2013 #5 Share Posted November 20, 2013 I'm sailing on the Westerdam in an SA suite. Does it have a corkscrew or should I bring one? Thanks! I have a really small and very cool one by Screwpull. Works like a charm. I just leave it with my cruise gear so it's at the ready. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare kazu Posted November 20, 2013 #6 Share Posted November 20, 2013 I have a really small and very cool one by Screwpull. Works like a charm. I just leave it with my cruise gear so it's at the ready. We always have one with us as we normally stay precruise or post cruise or both ;) so we may need it. Boarding if in a Neptune Suite - we have always had one but one time. I was very glad I had ours. Yes, I did request it so we could put it away, but in the meantime, we could have our bottle of wine for sail a way :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
summersigh Posted November 20, 2013 #7 Share Posted November 20, 2013 You might want to check in the wine department of your grocery - mine had a selection of 2 or 3 different ones - all reasonable. I keep one in the travel bag so it's always ready to go :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have gotten in the habit of packing a cork screw in with odds and ends like shampoo, hand soap, etc. I have computer lists as to what I need to pack in each suitcase -- thus it helps to remember little things like packing the cork screw in the luggage.

taxmantoo Posted November 21, 2013 #9 Share Posted November 21, 2013 I don't really know why but I always seem to have 3 or 4 in my toiletries bag. Just keep throwing them in there without looking from my collection of hundreds ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WebExec Posted November 21, 2013 #11 Share Posted November 21, 2013 I bought a $4 one in port but then found one next to wine glasses in the cabin. Interior room on Eurodam last week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
