kelkel2 Posted November 13, 2015 #1 Share Posted November 13, 2015 We will be on the Carnival Breeze in aft extended cabin 7465 in January. Can anyone tell my if there is an outlet next to the bed on either side or is there only one at the desk? My husband will need to plug in his c-pap and I was trying to decide what we will need to bring along in order to get it to plug in. If it can only be plugged in at the desk, can we bring an extension cord, or what about a surge protector with multiple outlets? Will they confiscate that? I would tell him to pack it in his carry on with his machine so if they tried to take it we could tell what it was for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sly9377 Posted November 13, 2015 #2 Share Posted November 13, 2015 Hi there, Just got back from the Breeze on 11/1. We have learned to always bring a surge protector and extension cord, they come in SO handy. We have never had a problem. My friends husband uses an C-pap and brought his extension cord, he had no issues. We were in 8267 & 8269 and the closest outlet to the bed was on the desk in the far corner by the phone, so definitely bring am extension cord. Hope this helps, enjoy!

BenjiRodney Posted November 13, 2015 #3 Share Posted November 13, 2015 We were in 10228 in October, you will need an extension cord to reach the outlet that is on the desk. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I always keep a surge protector and extension cord in my Cpap bag (they come in handy in hotels, too). It has never been an issue and, in fact, necessary. You can contact the special needs department and request that they place an extension cord in your cabin for this. This has worked sometimes for me, sometimes not. I think that it depends on availability. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kelkel2 Posted November 13, 2015 Author #5 Share Posted November 13, 2015 Thanks guys! Any idea how long of an extension cord I should buy? I know some people said carnival would provide one, but I'd rather just have one in his c-pap case for traveling, because we do travel relatively often.

wrcjr98 Posted November 13, 2015 #6 Share Posted November 13, 2015 (edited) Thanks guys! Any idea how long of an extension cord I should buy? I know some people said carnival would provide one, but I'd rather just have one in his c-pap case for traveling, because we do travel relatively often. We were on the Breeze in September. I let the cabin steward know that my husband had a C-Pap, and he brought in an extension cord, and set it up on my husband's side of the bed for us. We didn't take anything extra, they did it for us! That being said, I don't know how long it was though! (Sorry!) Edited November 13, 2015 by wrcjr98 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jaluvma Posted February 9, 2016 #8 Share Posted February 9, 2016 yes you are not allowed to take surge protectors anymore they will take them away because they can cause a fire. You will need to take a regular power strip without surge protection. be sure to take an extension cord I do with mine Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flagmom Posted February 9, 2016 #9 Share Posted February 9, 2016 How long of an extension cord is needed? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaluvma Posted February 9, 2016 #10 Share Posted February 9, 2016 good question hopefully someone can tell us looking at room diagram looks like plug unless one behing bed is on opposite wall so I bet at least 9ft if that is the case Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jordanaire Posted February 10, 2016 #11 Share Posted February 10, 2016 I use a 15-ft extension cord for my CPAP machine and it's more than long enough. Better to be too long than to be too short, right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaluvma Posted February 10, 2016 #12 Share Posted February 10, 2016 I just swapped my 9' out for a 12' cord I should be ok now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kelkel2 Posted February 11, 2016 Author #13 Share Posted February 11, 2016 We brought a 12" cord, but before we could even unpack it, our room steward, who was amazing was offering us one. We told him we didn't need it. We didn't want to use theirs, especially if someone else on board really would need it. But that just goes to show you that they really are available if you need them once you get on the ship! Also getting the distilled water was so easy. Right after getting into the room I called room service and they just wanted to make sure we would be there waiting for the delivery as it can take a bit. We told them we would wait, they maybe took 10 minutes? Super easy!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
