Gatorfan01 Posted October 25, 2014 #1 Share Posted October 25, 2014 This may seem like a silly question, but I'll be alone in my cabin (when I'm in there) so how do I prevent my steward from coming in there while I'm in there? :o Do we have "Do Not Disturb" things for the door? I could never remember to hang it or take it off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wwcruisers Posted October 25, 2014 #2 Share Posted October 25, 2014 Haven't been on Carnival in decades, but I believe that all of the major cruiselines have some sort of "Do Not Disturb" notification, for passenger cabins. My absolute favorite is Royal Caribbean. They have cards that fit into the door slot, with "Do Not Disturb" on one side, and "Please Make Up My Room" on the other. Even the best room stewards have a hard time predicting passenger schedules, and knowing when the room will be available for cleaning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cb at sea Posted October 25, 2014 #3 Share Posted October 25, 2014 There is a lock on the door that you should use whenever you're in your cabin....it overrides the attendant's key. When you're out of the cabin, you can't engage that lock, so the attendant may come in and clean. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Keith1010 Posted October 25, 2014 #4 Share Posted October 25, 2014 Each ship is different. But on all of them you can lock the door. Keith Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
celebrity Posted October 25, 2014 #5 Share Posted October 25, 2014 As far as I am aware, every cruise line has a Do Not Disturb sign for the door. The stewards always knock first before entering so you should be safe from unexpected visits. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JimAOk1945 Posted October 25, 2014 #6 Share Posted October 25, 2014 We always put the "Do Not Disturb" sign in the pass card slot in addition to locking the door. It works! :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elaine5715 Posted October 25, 2014 #7 Share Posted October 25, 2014 Use the door lock and put the Snoozing sign out. I always cruise solo and I have never had a problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KARTI1955 Posted October 25, 2014 #8 Share Posted October 25, 2014 Carnival has a hang tag that says"cruisin" on one side (When you are not in the room, the steward will know it's ok to go in) and "snoozing" on the other side (steward won't enter). That being said, there is also a turn lock that you should engage when you are in the room. There is also a turn lock in the bathroom that you can use, just in case the door tag falls off or some jokester turns it over. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
