trippintex Posted November 22, 2019 #1 Share Posted November 22, 2019 Has anyone had problems with RCCL making them take door decorations down , if so what ship? We just got off the Brilliance and was told to take them down. WE also talked to others on the ship and there decorations where removed and placed on there bed with a note saying it was not allowed. I have read the policy and it is subjective. We have done it many times and this is a first for me. After 377 days at sea with RCCL this has never happened before.

Tony O Posted November 22, 2019 #4 Share Posted November 22, 2019 We were on the Symphony October cruise this year and many doors were decorated for Halloween. In fact many were left up for the President's cruise the following week 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is a thread on the Celebrity board with the same topic. Someone posted that NCL doesn't allow them either. Maybe Royal is following the policy.

bala1130 Posted November 22, 2019 #10 Share Posted November 22, 2019 Maybe a fire hazard if it's made of paper or other flammable materials? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All it takes is one minor instance of something catching fire or just smoldering and it becomes fleet-wide policy. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trippintex Posted November 22, 2019 Author #13 Share Posted November 22, 2019 That looks like the NCL policy we looked up. RCCL sells door decorations and the policy we found placing materials anywhere on the interior of the ship which may be deemed by ship management as inappropriate including stateroom doors.

Gaynors Posted November 22, 2019 #18 Share Posted November 22, 2019 We have always decorated our door for different celebrations and never had a problem (and that's been on RCI, Celebrity and Princess) We are getting ready to head out on Thanksgiving sailing tomorrow and have the door decorations all packed. We usually bring some blank paper and crayons/markers/colored pencils etc.. and the night before Thanksgiving all the kids (and some adults 😉) make hand turkeys and put we them on the door. It is lots of fun. It would be sad if they wouldn't allow it any more.. even though the kids are teens now we still enjoy putting our decorations on our door. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, that's got to be the ultimate RCI money making scam. Selling door decorations that can not be hung on a door. What next? Specialty restaurants where you are not allowed to eat but just look at the food? 1 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope so, we sailed on the Brilliance for Thanksgiving many years ago and decorated our doors. That's when the kids were still real young and it helped them figure out which room was ours (the one with the fold out turkey on the door 😊).

Often times, late at night, I need other peoples door decorations to guide me to my own cabin. Let's see, I'm 3 doors down from the people celebrating their 25th wedding anniversary but if I walk past the Krazy Kruisers Klub Kabin then I've gone to far. And if I don't recognize any of the decorations, then I'm on the wrong deck 😲 5 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On the last night of the cruise we took everything down and packed it in our luggage. Our grandson couldn't find the cabin when he came back from the kids club We found him wandering the hallway looking for it. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Last thing you'd want is your grandson banging on someone else's door looking for you! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
