They had no problem with our two power strips. And … the butler brought us an extension cord. — Don I am going on a Disney cruise next weekend and we were told they are not allowed. Yes, If the Butler brings you an extension cord then it’s OK and you will be allowed to use it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sure would simplify things!!!! Who has time to research and find the hundreds of them? Stock changes constantly. It's very simple. No extension cords or multi plugs. Single plug and multi usb are allowed. Edited Monday at 04:46 PM by BND 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we cant bring this now will the cabin steward provide one ? We bring a small all plastic USB fan. I got it a long time ago on Amazon. It’s tiny but has 3 speeds and works great!

Single plug and multi usb are allowed.” It is very simple. I think that some might think it is confusing or complicated because what they have been using which they thought was allowed is now specifically prohibited. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Their vagueness is why this thread is 7 pages long so far. There is nothing vague about it. RCI’s verbiage is crystal clear. The reason for so many comments is this is a significant change. A lot of cruisers, including myself, have brought on multi plug adapters for years on RCI ships. Per RCI’s clear guidance, these adapters are no longer allowed.

Yes, I was onboard for 7 weeks before World Cruise, they had 25-30 Contractors on my Cruises staying even longer. Watched them replacing the Fridge/Coolers, running all new lines, Electrical and Internet, on all Passenger Decks. Not something they can do in a usual 10-14day Dry Dock. I was on 3 Radiance Class post Dry Docks, 2 were little longer then usual and they still did most Maintenance while Ship was back in service with Passengers onboard. Painting all the Ship White(on Port stops), remove/sand/stain/replace all railings, one week they are gone, next week they are back and they move to next 20 Cabins. Seen them replace Mattresses multiple times one Deck at a time on turn around day at home Port, next week they do another Floor. Same with Balcony Furniture, one deck at a time. This all these done after multiple Ships Dry Docks 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your cabin attendant is not likely to be the one who is going to enforce the rules. Where it would be confiscated would be at security if the catch it. Also since the change is only a few days old I expect enforcement to take some time to be consistent. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mickey-mouse Posted Thursday at 02:26 PM #160 Share Posted Thursday at 02:26 PM Just to clarify. Multi usb chargers are allowed, but only if it plugs in directly and doesn't have a cord? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I read the RCCL document and did not see this phrase. Multi USB ports are not multi plugs or outlets. USB chargers have ports not AC outlets or AC plugs. A lot of folks want to complicate this because they don't understand the difference beteen a USB ports on a charger and AC outlets. USB chargers take AC from the mains and convert it form AC to the DC that devices like for example smartphones, tablets. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They could say that on their page and maybe they will because of the people who over complicate it but what RCCL says on their page is clear enough. Probably if they add that on their page there will be people who will find some other way to over complicate it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare vadersprincess12 Posted 4 hours ago #172 Share Posted 4 hours ago (edited) I don't think it will. I just ordered two usb only chargers but neither are marked with the US/Europe marking they mention. Guess I have to start looking for something different. EDIT ~ just researched this and this is what you need to see on the usb charger. Edited 4 hours ago by vadersprincess12 Researched the image and posted it.

Rare vadersprincess12 Posted 4 hours ago #173 Share Posted 4 hours ago Hi everyone ~ thought this would be helpful since this has been a hot topic. I did the research and your usb charger block (no additional electrical plugs) must have this symbol stamped on it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The US marking is UL usually in a circle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare vadersprincess12 Posted 2 hours ago #175 Share Posted 2 hours ago Charles4515 ~ thanks for your input. All of the chargers I am seeing show the CE symbol which is the European symbol; having a hard time finding anything with the UL symbol. Royal's website says they must be stamped with US/European conformance marking. So if people cannot find the UL, they are still okay with the CE symbol. Hopefully that helps clarify.
