sminfiddle Posted February 20, 2016 #2 Share Posted February 20, 2016 There are some cabins that have the UK two-pin sockets in addition to some US two-blade plugs. It would help to know what type of cabin you'll have as they differ. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would help to know what type of cabin you'll have as they differ. I believe what you are referring to is European 220 volt outlets. There will also be US 115v outlets. This is standard on US oriented cruise ships, which Princess's are. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would help to know what type of cabin you'll have as they differ. Those are only on the Royal or Regal and it has nothing to do with what type of cabin you have. Not to mention that all US 110 outlets are 3-prong, not two blade. There's a 220/110 outlet in all bathrooms but they are rated only for razors. At the desk of most Princess ships in all cabins: In the bathroom: On the Royal/Regal: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
floridalover5623 Posted February 20, 2016 #5 Share Posted February 20, 2016 This outlet will also charge phones, tablets and cameras. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Montrealais Posted February 20, 2016 #6 Share Posted February 20, 2016 A power bar will come in handy for multiple uses. There are small ones... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
diane.in.ny Posted February 20, 2016 #7 Share Posted February 20, 2016 I would suggest bringing one UK to US adapter and a small power strip. Then you'll be covered. Plus, if memory serves me correctly, with going from 220 to 110 you may find your devices charging slower than you are used to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MandD Posted February 21, 2016 #8 Share Posted February 21, 2016 On most ships there are a couple of US outlets behind the TV and a 220v outlet under the bed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pam in CA Posted February 21, 2016 #9 Share Posted February 21, 2016 I never bring a power strip and am always amazed at so many people concerned about luggage weight bringing one. :) Most electronics now come with a cord with USB so I just bring an adapter with four USB ports. So much easier, lighter and far more convenient. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kuldalai Posted February 21, 2016 #10 Share Posted February 21, 2016 For UK residents you need to bring a US to UK adapter. NB: The previous pictures are of US plugs, and the recessed plug is the European plug,. For that you need a three pin European to UK plug .

kayelbee Posted February 21, 2016 #11 Share Posted February 21, 2016 Hi, if you are thinking of charging mobile phones, cameras and any USB lead items then can I suggest buying a multi USB plug with a US plug (if that makes sense) I have one that I can plug 4 USB leads into and has a interchangeable UK/USB/Euro plug. If you are charging/using items that require a normal UK plug then I use a UK multi socket extention lead and a US adapter plug. I never leave items charging when I am out of the cabin.
