STAR / 7 nt / Laundry question

[imwmn913]

I am aware of the fill the bag for $20. that NCL offers. Has anyone recently off the 7 Night STAR used this and what day was it offered?

 

Thanks!

Not off the STAR recently - but the norm here is hump day of the cruise - day number 4.

Standard practice in by 9 am day 4 returned day 5 late in the day.

Thanks!  This will work... as we will be in Venice for a few days prior and after the cruise. And the fill the bag is a great option for less packing.

Bring tape, our bag ripped because we stuffed it.

On a 7-night, it is offered on Day 4. It is two day service returning on the night of Day 6. Of the laundry is not busy, it can come back faster, but the guarantee is two day.

Just ask your steward for an extra pillowcase and put that in the bag first... then fill the bag it won't be so fragile.

@bssc... great idea!

We normally pack tape, bubble wrap and plastic baggies to use if we buy breakable or any thing that may leak.

I'll make sure we have sturdy tape for the laundry.

We were on the Star two years ago on a 14 day cruise.  It was offered twice on Day#4 & Day#10.  Just check your Freestyle Daily or ask your room steward or at Reception.

 

We're Latitudes Platinum so we get one free bag each every 7 days.  We stuff them bulging full & usually end up "double-bagging" just like at the grocery store so the bags don't break!...lol

 

@Sauer-kraut That is a GREAT idea!!!  We'll try that next time instead of double-bagging & "chopping down another tree in the rainforest"...lol
