khuselid Posted June 9, 2021 #26 Share Posted June 9, 2021 I believe in A cabins it’s standard now to get some freebies concerning having your laundry done. It does take 3 days to get it returned but with some planning it’s a pretty nice perk. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't like to do laundry on vacation unless there's no other option. Does O have a paid laundry service available? I'd only want it once or twice for PJs and bloomers. I save worn out unseen stuff that's ready to be tossed and don't bring it back home. After living in "loungewear" for the past year, I'm definitely well stocked for the next trip. Yes they have paid laundry or as stated if you are in Concierge or above you get 3 free bags of 20 items per bag I do not mind doing mine as it is done MY way the laundry room is free & they supply the soap 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goofysmom99 Posted June 9, 2021 Author #28 Share Posted June 9, 2021 Thank you for the laundry info. I even read the list of cabin benefits and it still didn't register. 🤓 Duh. Think/hope I'm all set now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare mauibabes Posted June 9, 2021 #29 Share Posted June 9, 2021 Absolutely do have laundry and pressing services available, as well as Free Launderette. One added perk of Concierge level is three Free bags of laundry (folded not pressed) during your cruise. Just a little thing but a necessity and appreciated. As a dutiful husband, I still make the trek to the laundry for the washing of the undergarments and quick need items. About 25 minutes to wash and 45 to dry and is now Free as they used to charge about $2 a load. I drop in and catch up on all the ship life scuttle but from the ladies and surprisingly large number of men there. Yes there is seating and a TV and liquid soap is provided, bring your own dryer sheets. Ciao, Gerry, dutiful husband of 50+ 4 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
p18750 Posted June 19, 2021 #30 Share Posted June 19, 2021 I am also considering Oceania after many Celebrity cruises. I was wondering how the Internet access worked. The description for a Veranda cabin says: Wireless Internet access and cellular service Can I conclude from this that internet service on the cruise is complimentary? thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I might not have the right daily rate, but I do remember it being quite pricey. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare mauibabes Posted June 19, 2021 #36 Share Posted June 19, 2021 If you are booked in Concierge or higher, you receive Free Laundry service, wash not pressed. Our last trip was 3 bags but we were on 30 days in a PH so it could be fewer bags. The Self service laundry is Free also for everyone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even 10 day cruises get the 3 bags ..20 items per bag I am surprised you only got 3 for 30 days Were there no segments ?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare mauibabes Posted June 19, 2021 #42 Share Posted June 19, 2021 You are correct, 14 and 16 day segments so there were 3 on each segment. Butler took care of everything. I just wanted to make the point that O does provide Laundry services at no cost in Concierge and Up level. Always check the Amenities List by Stateroom level to be sure what you qualify for. A LOT of Value is loaded into those increased Stateroom levels. Gerry 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What Gerry says is spot on in my two weeks on here, she and others have given me some great suggestions. I’ve a Regatta Alaska booked now. Also deciding to either do a waitlist for an amazing itinerary or just book one that has availability in the suite I really want. Decisions decisions… Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare mauibabes Posted June 19, 2021 #44 Share Posted June 19, 2021 @LGW59 VERY easy decision, DO BOTH. It is only a fully refundable Depo$it and then make a decision when the time is right. You/We have no idea about the movement of Waitlists and sometimes TA’s can even get you a Guaranteed Category Reservation and then Oceania will handle the rest prior to your sailing. If you are holding out for a specific stateroom, 🙏 because you normally can only pull that off when the itineraries are released. If your plan is to just get on the cruise and a stateroom level, book it then add a Waitlist request to move to different rooms or levels. We have done that many times. Hope that helps the “decisions, decisions”, decision? Gerry 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
