Hole punch for sail and sign

Recommended Posts

I am wanting to put a hole in the sail and sign cards and clip on a reel lanyard, it will be easier for the kids to keep the keys safe. Just wondering if they punch a hole on your sail and sign? Say in the gift shop? I know when i worked on royal they did that for passengers. Just wondering if not I'll get a cheap one at the dollar store. Thanks!

If you do it yourself just check front and back of the card before you punch. don't want to mess up the bar code for the key access or the magnetic strip on the back for purchases. I had quest services do it and SHE messed it up twice. So she had to keep giving me new cards.

The casino attendants usually won't punch a hole if the card belongs to a kid.

 

had all 3 of ours punched at the casino. our son is 8. they didnt even look at the names or who they belonged to. i asked for them to be hole punched and they were done with no problems

Last time GS punched the wrong side of the card. The side that has to slide into the door. We were aft so had to walk the whole way back to GS to have them repunch them. Also they have two sizes of hole punch. The regular size, and a teeny one that is barely big enough for your lanyard ring (depending upon it's size), so look carefully before you step away from the window.

I go to the casino, but ONE time they looked at their screen and said they couldn't do the kid keys.

Thanks everyone for the reply. I may just get a cheap hole punch from he dollar store so I don't have to leave with everyone's keys, just do it once we get to the cabin! :)

 

Maybe stand by the entrance and charge a few people a quarter to recoup your investment. :D

We've had casino workers refusing to punch DDs cards because they had the Kid's Club sticker on it.

Does carnival provide lanyards or is it bring your own?

We got ours in the casino when they punched our cards. In fact, I will be taking them back with us our next cruise. Handy dandy.

the casino will give you a free black stretchy one. But you can buy the cloth ones that say CARNIVAL in the gift shop.

The casino has ones that remind me of old fashioned telephone cords. I am not a fan since they tangle easily and are so long. We have some from Busch Gardens that we use. We have also bought some ship specific ones on Celebrity.

 

If you fill out the credit card offer onboard, you will get a little goodie bad which has a lanyard in it as well.

We did a behind the fun tour on our Pride cruise and they gave us lanyards at the end, along with a couple of other things. We saved the lanyards and now use them when we cruise. We got sick of those coilly from the casino, they always seem to get tangled and sometimes it was like pulling teeth to get them. You had to be sitting at a machine and actually spinning the reels for them to give you one. I don't blame them, they are worth, what about $20 ea. at least :rolleyes:

 

So yeah we take our own lanyards, but I did see some *pretty* *blingy* lanyards in the gift shop. Not that expensive, like 5-10 range? I saw silver and red bling for sure. There's another option.

Same happened to me, all I needed was a hole punched. Not the nuclear war codes. I guess rules are rules though.

I go to the cashier and ask for a hole punch and they put it on a lanyard every time without me asking. I have also seen workers on the floor walking around with lanyards looking to punch holes for people. One time they punched holes in the kid's cards but said they couldn't give them a casino lanyard.

 

On the premier cruises, they give out black and red cloth lanyards that say Players Club instead of the usual Carnival plastic coils.
