murphy4 Posted February 4, 2018 #1 Share Posted February 4, 2018 Does anyone know if Oasis class will punch a hole in the seapass card to enable putting in on a lanyard? or would taking a lanyard with a plastic holder work best? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They still punch a hole on Oasis. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rolady68 Posted February 4, 2018 #3 Share Posted February 4, 2018 On the anthem of a lot of people had those plastic lanyards to slide the seat passes into I didn't see many that poked holes in them Sent from my SM-T377V using Forums mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wrh2016 Posted February 4, 2018 #4 Share Posted February 4, 2018 Not sure about Oasis specifically, but on other RC class ships, either will work. Agents at check-in will do it for you and so will guest relations agents on the ship. I have done both, hole punch and lanyard case. I prefer the hole punch. IMO It is just easier not having to take the card out of the slip all the time to get in your cabin. ;). Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clarea Posted February 4, 2018 #6 Share Posted February 4, 2018 On the anthem of a lot of people had those plastic lanyards to slide the seat passes into I didn't see many that poked holes in them Anthem uses the RFID SeaPass cards, which can be damaged with a hole punched in the wrong place. I believe only Quantum class and Harmony are using the RFID cards right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wrh2016 Posted February 4, 2018 #8 Share Posted February 4, 2018 I have seen kiosks with lanyards for sale at the check-in counter. May depend on your port. I haven’t checked onboard, but I’m sure they have something. Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elationismyship Posted February 4, 2018 #9 Share Posted February 4, 2018 Just off Oasis of the Seas in December, they had a hole punch right at check in for us (usually had to go to Guest Services to get hole punch).

nanwel Posted February 4, 2018 #10 Share Posted February 4, 2018 What is RFID? and does that mean I cannot get a hole punched in our cards on Harmony?? I usually do that on all cruises, makes in so much easier to keep track of . I did a plastic holder a couple of times. Found that awkward at times, digging card out. I ended up adding stuff to the plastic container (should not have done that) ie tickets etc when going to a show. So, now I just get cards punched asap getting on ship. never think to ask when I check in if they can do that for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They will not punch a hole in your Seapass on Harmony. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radio-frequency_identification Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nanwel Posted February 4, 2018 #12 Share Posted February 4, 2018 Thanks I just took 5 lanyards out of my packed bag. will get ones with a plastic sleeve instead - do not want to lug useless junk, I try to travel light. (haha)f Dollar store here I come. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
griffy116 Posted February 4, 2018 #13 Share Posted February 4, 2018 We have some really nice lanyards with the clear front. Gives me enough room to slide a little money behind my Seapass card for "emergency" tips. When I go off the ship, I slide it under my shirt and I put my ID, Seapass and a couple of $20's for an emergency. Should my purse get stolen or lost, I can still get a cab to the ship and still have my ID safe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jasukkie Posted February 4, 2018 #14 Share Posted February 4, 2018 My best pre-cruise purchase was a super snazzy lanyard from Target for $7.99. It had the plastic pocket for sea pass card and zippered pocket for a little cash and ID/credit cards. I didn't have to take the sea pass card out of it to use it by the way. The lanyards they sell onboard cost more and aren't as solidly built. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cuervosar Posted February 4, 2018 #16 Share Posted February 4, 2018 Does anyone know if Oasis class will punch a hole in the seapass card to enable putting in on a lanyard? or would taking a lanyard with a plastic holder work best? Best bet is short sleeve dress shirt / pocket protector / and then plastic sleeve. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think its risky, try punching a little closer to the middle. But then lanyard might not fit. A zipper pull might work. This one opened my cabin, but would not work at muster check in. Muster leader was pissed. I didnt try to use it to get off the ship Edited June 29, 2019 by John&LaLa Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dpostman Posted June 30, 2019 #24 Share Posted June 30, 2019 If someone wants to punch a hole in their RFID seapass card, it is best to avoid the antenna. I ran my Anthem RFID card through an X-Ray to see where it runs. Proceed at your own risk 😉 It seems to me that punching a hole in the exact circle of the WiFi symbol would be safe, but card stock might change and have slight variations. dp 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
