? re: Equinox onboard shopping for those RECENTLY on ship

[kruisinkris]

Does the Equinox offer Sunscreen & Aloe Vera for sell in their shops? 

We cruise in just over a week and I'm trying to keep the weight down in our luggage.

Picking them up in Ft L isn't an option because of taxi/uber cost & covid concerns.

Thanks

It seems I saw sun screen on Equinox last week. Have no idea about aloe vera, but that would probably be in the make up sales area if available.

They do have it in limited supply.  
 

one thing I learned from a passenger on Equinox was they removed Excedrin and Tylenol.   They don’t want passengers self medicating to reduce temperatures

 X usually has some items in the liquor shop..limited..or cosmetic shop or spa..

Does this ship have the little shop with sun glasses and sun products on the pool deck??

 

We  always bring some small sizes just in case  not available on board and supplement  in port...

Walgreens or was it CVS? Very close to port entrance….possible get taxi or Uber to pit stop…

Thanks. We have a lot of onboard credit, so this will really help.

By the way, the sundries on the Equinox are hidden.  If you go into the liquor section, along the back wall (on the right if you enter from the hallway by the casino) there are two closed cabinets.  All the sundries are there.  They aren't locked so you can open them up and buy what you need.  

 

Maybe this is something everyone knows.   I didn't.

There is also a particularly small selection on Equinox, although the requested items are there.  If you have to fly, its better to buy there anyway.  Otherwise only small amounts are pernitted in the carry-ons.

Was on EQ last month and I just thought that the sundries were very sparse. I did not know about the hidden cabinet. Now I know. Thanks abbydancer.

Yeah, my first time on Equinox, I went looking for Bonine....asked the nice lady in the store, she took me into the liquor section, opened those 2 doors..BAM...who knew?  Lots of stuff packed in there.
