Yes, they will wash jeans, but I believe everything is washed in warm/hot water so you might want to bring an extra pair if you have the room to avoid fading.

SewMuch Posted August 15, 2019 #3 Share Posted August 15, 2019 Depending on your cruise line, they might also have self service laundries on board. And if you are doing a land tour, you can do laundry at the lodges Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You could get them dry cleaned if you are worried about fading/shrinkage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe that if you are paying the regular laundry prices (not using the wash 'n' fold stuff-it bag), you can specify how they launder your item(s). That would include saying "cold water for these jeans". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've read that everything is washed in hot water but that's probably just for the wash-n-fold bags as you stated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You may want to over it with the room steward to make sure. It makes packing simpler. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
