Bringing fan aboard oasis class

[Cruisegirl6]

Hello,

 

We like a cool cabin and found the Oasis class ships cabins to be too warm, over 74 degrees especially during the night...we will be on the Harmony next month, my question is, has anybody brought a portable fan with them and did you find any issues or problems in bringing a fan with the airlines and Royal Caribbean?

The cruise line sometimes confiscates fans with an electric cord. Better to bring a battery operated fan.

 

Or, maybe a cruise to Alaska would solve multiple problems?

[Cruisegirl6]

That makes sense, but then again I would have to bring a load of batteries so I guess this idea is null and void :rolleyes:

We always bring a fan that's battery / optional electric cord.

can't speak to the Oasis issue, but I can tell you I packed a plug in tabletop fan in my checked baggage last summer. They didn't seem to care, no extra notes in my bag about it being searched.

I always bring fans with me, new in the box. I can't sleep without the white noise going. I also found the room left in my bag going home is helpful for shopping :D I don't bring the fans home with me. I figure they probably end up in the staff lounges, doubt they get thrown out so I don't feel bad about abandoning them.

4/9 on Allure someone had checked a big box fan, I watched it roll onto the ship in the big luggage carts from our balcony. I wouldn't have thought that would have made it through but it did.

I'm​ guessing they have policies in place regarding items left in rooms, and it's not finders keepers.

I have friends that request one once onboard from your cabin steward. I am going to do that next time.

Our fan can run on batteries and has a power transformer that disconnects from the fan. We just pack the power supply separately from the fan. it is a slim line fan so it fits in our luggage easily.

Maxwell- I found it on amazon and ordered it, thank you!

We requested (2) fans on our last cruise on the Allure, and cabin stewart had them in our rooms when we arrived. (we were staying in a suite, and made the request through our Royal Genie, so not sure if that helped or not? but I do know they do have some on board)

[Cruisegirl6]

Somebody told me they didn't provide fans, glad to hear thanks for the info!

I need air flow ON me at night....so I bring a small desk fan...about 5 inches....and an extension cord, so it can be on the table next to the bed.

[Cruisegirl6]

I purchased the fan LMaxell has, I will bring that and probably asked RC for another should the one I have not be strong enough but at least I have something.

I always bring a table top fan for cruises and hotels.

Thanks for the link to the fan above.

I ordered one!

We always bring a battery / electric fan and at the end of the cruise ask our cabin steward if they want it. If so we write a note saying were giving it to them. (also helps make room in suitcase for souvenirs )
