Donh44 Posted August 26, 2018 #26 Share Posted August 26, 2018 That is a surge protector and not allowed. Here’s another option that I use: https://www.amazon.com/360-Electrical-36053-Protector-Rotating/dp/B00C0QEUCG/ref=mp_s_a_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1535237920&sr=8-3&pi=AC_SX236_SY340_QL65&keywords=360+electrical&dpPl=1&dpID=31g0B5-M8YL&ref=plSrch Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrrom92 Posted August 26, 2018 #27 Share Posted August 26, 2018 Want an outlet close to your bed so you can use your phone while plugged in and lay down at the same time, or have your phone on your nightstand? The lamps are plugged into Euro style plugs behind the bed. Get an international travel adaptor. There are lots of good ones, some even have several USB ports built in - meaning you don’t even have to plug an additional usb charger into the adaptor. You can even plug the lamp back in with the adaptor “in the middle” and continue to have light! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NLinSC Posted August 26, 2018 #28 Share Posted August 26, 2018 Great idea! I traveled often + lived in France: have bags of adapters. Thanks Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PhillyFan33579 Posted August 26, 2018 #29 Share Posted August 26, 2018 A small fan. We always bring one with us. We like the cabin to be on the cool side, and a fan makes a big difference, especially at night for sleeping. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NLinSC Posted August 26, 2018 #30 Share Posted August 26, 2018 This is one that I bought for our last cruise. Very pleased with it. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01DW1TQU8?ref=yo_pop_ma_swf Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ciship Posted August 26, 2018 #33 Share Posted August 26, 2018 A small fan. We always bring one with us. We like the cabin to be on the cool side, and a fan makes a big difference, especially at night for sleeping. On our last cruise in 2015, we asked for both our cabins to have fans in them. The cabin attendant supplied them to us. The cabin would have been WAY too hot without them. Do they still provide them at your request? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
summersigh Posted August 26, 2018 #34 Share Posted August 26, 2018 A few of the LED votive candles from the dollar store. They’ll make a nice ambiance in the cabin since it’s a delayed honeymoon. we have some like this that are motion activated battery activated - we always have one in the bathroom so we don't have to turn on the light if we need to get up and potty in the night.

Shocker4 Posted September 2, 2018 #39 Share Posted September 2, 2018 1. Bring more hangers 2. Create more outlets 3. Plastic bins to use in bathroom 4. Sanitizing wipes to clean room before your cruise begins 5. If you have a balcony room, a way to clean the balcony and sliding glass door, after splashes and rain (I use microfiber on a handle for car glass cleaning). 6. The trifecta of a good nights sleep (ear plugs, eye mask, & sleeping pills) for good measure add a fan or white noise app (we think neighboring ship doors slam terrifically loud and wonder why we are the only ones that hold them until they shut softly.)

crazycatlady82 Posted September 2, 2018 #40 Share Posted September 2, 2018 Not sure if this has been suggested yet, but I love to bring battery operated tea lights. Great to have in the evenings and small enough you can bring them outside on the balcony! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great to have in the evenings and small enough you can bring them outside on the balcony! We always use those in the bathroom at night time. No blinding yourself or your cabin mates since the switch is outside the door. I like to bring nicely scented hand sanitizer. Bath and Body Works has many and they also sell little rubbery holders you can you to attach them to a beach bag or what have you. Very handy when out on excursions.

I'll be using my CPAP machine for the first time on a cruise and was wondering how to plug it in. Only remember seeing the one outlet on the main counter and was trying to figure out how to stretch it over to the bed! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

simplelife Posted September 5, 2018 #44 Share Posted September 5, 2018 We have been on many cruises and have never seen the need for most of the cabin hacks ( overdoor organizer, command hooks, magnets,etc.).Stick with things for use outside the cabin (the yeti/tumbler, towel hooks, luggage tags, lanyard,etc ) Whatever you get, put it in a colorful foldable tote ( TJ Maxx and JoAnns have them for a dollar).

Gold Mine Gal Posted September 5, 2018 #47 Share Posted September 5, 2018 My favourite is my little convertible tote bag. I attach it to my purse and carry it everywhere off the ship. I think it would be a perfect little gift.
