mit429 Posted February 18, 2017 #1 Share Posted February 18, 2017 We just upgraded to an S1 for our cruise in March and we are very excited to give Suite Class a try. I've been watching a few YouTube room tours and have noticed that all of the suites, including Sky Suites, seem to have an iPad docking station. I hadn't seen this noted in any marketing material and I don't recall ever having seen it or read about it previously. I'm wondering if anyone can shed any light on the iPad dock in the Suites; Is there definitely a dock in every room? Does it have speakers? Does it connect to the TV or something?

WonderMan3 Posted February 18, 2017 #2 Share Posted February 18, 2017 We were just in the Penthouse on Eclipse two weeks ago and there was a Bluetooth speaker not an IPod dock. I'm not sure if other suites had that change too. Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mit429 Posted February 18, 2017 Author #3 Share Posted February 18, 2017 Was it the Bose sound dock type thing? I saw that in the Penthouse and Reflection Suite tours. I followed along with your review of the Eclipse - I loved it - great job! And I'm very sorry to hear about your mother-in-law.

cynbar Posted February 18, 2017 #4 Share Posted February 18, 2017 I was in an S1 on Silhouette a couple weeks ago. I don't remember seeing an iPod docking station, but I wasn't looking so it may have been there. Nowadays, we bring our Bose Sound Link with us when we travel--- it was not provided in this level of suite. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TeeRick Posted February 18, 2017 #5 Share Posted February 18, 2017 We were recently in an S1 on Silhouette and no iPAD dock but there were bluetooth speakers in the room. We never tried them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nowadays, we bring our Bose Sound Link with us when we travel--- it was not provided in this level of suite. We usually do the same, just curious as to if we could skip that step this time. I'm always trying to cut down on my overpacking, probably just to overpack something new, haha. Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The speaker wasn't a sound dock, not sure if it was even a Bose. It was pretty small. I didn't look at it too closely as I had brought my own JBL bluetooth speaker with me.

jules815 Posted February 18, 2017 #10 Share Posted February 18, 2017 Does anyone know about the Sky Suites on Reflection? Docking station or blue tooth speaker? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LPCKG Posted February 18, 2017 #11 Share Posted February 18, 2017 We've taken a two year break from cruising, last sailing on Celebrity in 2014 and, also also, 2013. On both occasions we sailed in a Sky suite back then both had an iPad docking station. We were unable to make use on the docking station on our second cruise in 2014 as we'd upgraded our iPad and iPhone. Maybe these have been removed in general due to changing technology.

NCHPcruiser Posted February 19, 2017 #12 Share Posted February 19, 2017 There was not an IPad dock in our S1 on the Equinox last October or the previous year on the Silhouette. I'll be boarding the Reflection next Saturday and will try to remember to report back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrendaJ Posted February 19, 2017 #13 Share Posted February 19, 2017 On the Reflection last month, there was one in our Sky Suite but it was the 30 pin king rather than lightning, so it didn't do us any good. Sent from my iPad using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cruising in mn Posted February 20, 2017 #15 Share Posted February 20, 2017 We were in a Sky Suite on the Connie last May. It did say somewhere there were docking stations, so I was wondering if they were the old 31 pin, or the new lightning kind.. We got there, and yep there was a docking station, however no cords. So we asked our Butler and he said, yeah, it doesnt work... so he removed it. I said oh do you have a back up, or one from another room they arent using? And he said they were getting rid of them. So, I'd say, you've got a 50/50 shot of getting one.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
