reedy8 Posted February 9, 2016 #1 Share Posted February 9, 2016 Hello I know from recent experience that Explorer now has electric kettles in each cabin but am now thinking about booking a Voyager cruise. Can any recent passengers advise if they now have kettles in all cabin classes? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sfr1959 Posted February 9, 2016 #2 Share Posted February 9, 2016 Yes we were on Voyager on Nov 15 and they do have kettles with tea and coffee . No fresh milk but powdered, we just when up to the windjammer and got a glass of fresh milk and cream and kept in our fridge [emoji106][emoji106] Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
qualifiedcruiseologist Posted February 9, 2016 #3 Share Posted February 9, 2016 We just came off the voyager today . We had a virtual balcony inside cabin and it sure did have little black kettle with two mugs.😊 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
reedy8 Posted February 15, 2016 Author #4 Share Posted February 15, 2016 Thank you, Explorer hand little UHT boxes we could take to our room, I'm the type who would spill a glass of milk in the lift or some other public place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare MicCanberra Posted February 15, 2016 #5 Share Posted February 15, 2016 Yes, kettles are available in the rooms, just ask the steward for extra coffee or tea bags if required.:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paulette3028 Posted February 15, 2016 #6 Share Posted February 15, 2016 Kettles are nice to have, I am just surprised that Royal has added this. I hope they add it to other ships, since I personally will enjoy it. Is it a kettle that only makes hot water for tea or hot cocoa, or is it something that will brew individual cups of coffee also? I would appreciate knowing who the Activity Manager is on a current sailing on Voyager. Cuddy Cudworth was expected to join the ship in mid February and I am wondering if he has or if that assignment has changed. We had Cuddy on Navigator this past November and he was a lot of fun.

The kettle will only boil water , it is just a $10 cheap kettle from kmart Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare MicCanberra Posted February 15, 2016 #8 Share Posted February 15, 2016 Along with the kettle, there was also a coffee maker in the suites.:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DiamondSuiteCruiser Posted February 15, 2016 #9 Share Posted February 15, 2016 Along with the kettle, there was also a coffee maker in the suites.:D What kind of coffee maker, or is it a French press? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare MicCanberra Posted February 15, 2016 #10 Share Posted February 15, 2016 What kind of coffee maker, or is it a French press? I am not sure as I didn't us e it but I saw it there and it looked like the ones where you put the sachet of coffee into a little draw at the top and the water would then drip through it to fill your cup with the coffee. They seem to be common in the US hotels. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cb at sea Posted February 16, 2016 #15 Share Posted February 16, 2016 We never had any....room service is easy and less messy! They will bring what you want, when you want it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paulette3028 Posted February 28, 2016 #16 Share Posted February 28, 2016 (edited) You're correct, it's a drip coffee maker, supplied with coffee packages that don't fit properly. What I learned from my recent cruise on Her Majesty is that there are two different drip coffee pots. If you get the one where the coffee package does not fit properly into the sleeve then just ask for the other pot. I learned the lesson the hard way, by making a mess using the miss fitting coffee package and our room attendant was very helpful afterwards in providing me with the right one....be aware it still makes a very very strong cup of coffee. PS -- can anyone who has sailed on Voyager in February 2016 tell me if Cuddy Cudworth was your Activity Manager, if not who was?

springaussie Posted February 28, 2016 #18 Share Posted February 28, 2016 Any kettles on the Radiance? Not in my superior ocean view room or my mates balcony earlier this month. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clarea Posted February 28, 2016 #19 Share Posted February 28, 2016 Not in my superior ocean view room or my mates balcony earlier this month. Kettles are probably in JS or better categories. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
