seapals2 Posted July 14, 2015 #1 Share Posted July 14, 2015 I think I have read somewhere that on sailings from England Celebrity ships have a kettle in the cabin. Can anyone confirm. Sailing on Eclipse in August. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ClaudiaB Posted July 14, 2015 #2 Share Posted July 14, 2015 Well three years ago on Eclipse they were. We had one in our cabin and we asked the butler to remove it because we didn't need it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Suzy Smith Posted July 14, 2015 #3 Share Posted July 14, 2015 Yes, kettles are provided in the cabin on sailings from Southampton. There will also be little sachets containing coffee, sugar, teabags, etc. - the kind of set-up you get in UK hotel rooms. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Velvetwater Posted July 15, 2015 #4 Share Posted July 15, 2015 Wish they did this for our Equinox Med cruise in 2 weeks... Hubby would be made up! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TeaBag Posted July 15, 2015 #5 Share Posted July 15, 2015 Yes, we had a kettle one month ago. Never used it though! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
QueenGlassHalfFull Posted July 15, 2015 #6 Share Posted July 15, 2015 We just departed the Eclipse this past Saturday. The cabins had kettles with tea bags and instant coffee packets. There was also a nice selection of sugars and sweeteners along with sealed containers of cream. There is a larger selection of tea bags in the Cafe.

Suzy Smith Posted July 15, 2015 #7 Share Posted July 15, 2015 Yes, we had a kettle one month ago. Never used it though! That's OK - it's not compulsory;):) but we really appreciate this nice little amenity on Southampton sailings! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barnsley Belle Posted July 15, 2015 #8 Share Posted July 15, 2015 (edited) Suggest you pick up a small carton of milk from the cafe at breakfast & keep it in your fridge Edited July 15, 2015 by Barnsley Belle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dkjretired Posted July 15, 2015 #9 Share Posted July 15, 2015 Just an FYI, as soon as the ship finishes the Southhampton season, they are removed from the cabins even on the TA although you can ask your steward for one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cadburysmom Posted July 15, 2015 #10 Share Posted July 15, 2015 Just an FYI, as soon as the ship finishes the Southhampton season, they are removed from the cabins even on the TA although you can ask your steward for one.This is true. I was able to get one via request on my 2014 eastbound Eclipse transatlantic ending in Southampton. Very convenient. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm on the TA in November so will be asking for one. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Katgoesonholiday Posted July 16, 2015 #12 Share Posted July 16, 2015 Awesome! I am not human till I have had my cup of tea in the morning and have already trained two of my kids to bring me tea in bed. :p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wendychloecruiser Posted July 16, 2015 #13 Share Posted July 16, 2015 Make sure you bring your own teabags. Possibly the ship will have a different supplier than when in florida so this might not be necessary. Also, the small "fridges" in the staterooms never get cold enough to be called a fridge...cooler box maybe. Nothing gets cold nor keeps cold in them.

harz99 Posted July 16, 2015 #14 Share Posted July 16, 2015 I know you really should use freshly boiled (not re boiled) water to make tea, but on UK sailings we order tea and milk etc. for two from room service and simply reboil the water for both my tea and wife's preferred brand of instant coffee which we bring from home. Saves a lot of faffing about getting milk from buffets etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
