Rare coldinerie Posted May 29, 2022 #1 Share Posted May 29, 2022 We will turn platinum this upcoming cruise. There are two of us in the cabin, both platinum, does that mean we both get the benefit of laundry award? We are on a 7 day with 3 bags of wash and fold, do we get 6 bags??? As you can see, laundry is very important to me (or should I say NOT doing laundry is very important to me), lol! 😅 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You may have to pick them up at different places on the ship. Don't forget to get your $25.00 credit at the casino, they will add slot play to your S & S card or give you chips.

Rare coldinerie Posted May 29, 2022 Author #4 Share Posted May 29, 2022 Thanks folks!!! NO laundry for me for 7 days, one bag a day (well, almost, lol). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bostwick girl Posted May 29, 2022 #5 Share Posted May 29, 2022 Guess I just don’t understand the fascination with laundry! I’d hate to know I couldn’t go on a 7 day cruise without doing laundry, lol. We made Diamond in January and I could count on both hands the number of times I’ve sent laundry out. But to each his own! 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since you live in Florida you're probably able to drive to the port and can pack whatever you need for your cruise. Those of us who fly have to pack light. It's much easier to pack maybe two or three outfits for a week and just have them washed as needed. My wife and I both share a carryon sized piece of luggage when we fly. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest BasicSailor Posted May 29, 2022 #7 Share Posted May 29, 2022 Just don't put anything delicate in those bags. I usually see at least one red faced person in line at guest services with a shrunken dress or shirt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Mike Dante Posted May 29, 2022 #8 Share Posted May 29, 2022 For the free water bottle, we used to just take them from the room. I found out this week that you need to get your free one from a bar. I asked guest services why couldn’t I just do that and replace the ones in my room to reverse the charge and she was like no you cant do that. Lol. It is only $3.95 so I didn’t wanna get frustrated over it. I was just inquiring while applying a gift card to my statement. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For me, it’s primarily shirts and underwear. We don’t always do laundry but it’s nice having them do it without having to cringe at paying for it. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My wife is platinum (I will be very soon) and we rely on the laundry benefit to make it possible. In fairness we usually each carry on a backpack (or as Spirit/Frontier call it, a "personal item") but those usually only have important medication and documents, electronics, etc in them. All the clothes are in the carryon luggage. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sharing a large suitcase isn't quite the same as 2 ppl sharing a bag that would qualify as a carryon on major us airlines. I much prefer not checking a bag at the airport. I also carry/wheel that spinner on and off the ship myself. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But, I send things to laundry even though I live close. Dress shirts - They can press it for you to be nice and spiffy for elegant night, I love it! I also don't wanna come home and do laundry 🤣 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare momin05 Posted May 30, 2022 #16 Share Posted May 30, 2022 How long does it take to get laundry back? Is it same day or overnight? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jsglow Posted May 30, 2022 #17 Share Posted May 30, 2022 It is most typically 24 hour turnaround. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even though the bottle in the room and the free one you get from a bar look identical, the contents are different. I understand that the free one is actually diluted and watered down. 😁 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

First, I don’t fly, and second, I use space bags to get all our clothes in the suitcase so it’s heavy! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
