sissy2000 Posted August 15, 2022 #1 Share Posted August 15, 2022 We will be on the Ocean Navigator for a Great Lakes cruise this fall and I cannot find anywhere that says if laundry is available on the Ocean Navigator. If so, does anyone have an idea on the pricing? Thanks for any help! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LDVinNC Posted August 16, 2022 #2 Share Posted August 16, 2022 I almost booked a 16 day trip from Boston to Nassau on the Navigator but the lack of laundry - either self service or send-out, stopped me from booking. Could not possibly go that long without laundry. But check with the line, it may have changed or I may have been misinformed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They said there is paid laundry service but would not give me an idea of pricing. Would still love to hear from someone who has seen the pricing.

Tn gal Posted August 16, 2022 #4 Share Posted August 16, 2022 (edited) My husband and I cruised on Ocean Navigator this spring and used the laundry service. Men’s undershirts and shorts were about $1 to $2 each if I remember correctly. Polo shirts about $3 and Bermuda shorts around $3.50. Pajamas were $3.50 to $4. These are approximations. Service was quick and the clothes were hung on hangers. I consider laundry service charges just a very small part of cruising expenses. By the way, we were on a two week Great Lakes cruise, concentrating on Lake Superior. We had a wonderful cruise and highly recommend American Queen Voyages.

LDVinNC Posted August 16, 2022 #5 Share Posted August 16, 2022 Glad to hear that there IS laundry service, Maybe I will look into that cruise again! Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LDVinNC Posted August 16, 2022 #6 Share Posted August 16, 2022 OOPS! That trip is on the Voyager not the Navigator. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bob brown Posted August 18, 2022 #7 Share Posted August 18, 2022 Interesting. I was just on the American Queen riverboat, and they had complimentary self service laundries on board, including the soap pods... I am taking the Ocean Voyager 11 day voyage in 2024, so would hope they offer similar... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tn gal Posted August 18, 2022 #8 Share Posted August 18, 2022 (edited) Bob Brown, if the Ocean Voyager is like the Ocean Navigator and I think it is, then you won’t find a self serve laundry. These boats are not paddle wheelers but a totally different design. The send out laundry service worked well for us on a 16 day Great Lakes cruise. Garments are priced individually. See my comment above. Edited August 18, 2022 by Tn gal Added comment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

See my comment above. Thanks for that info. In that case, hopefully our SSOA Saphire loyalty level will give us complimentary laundry service.🙂 Edited August 19, 2022 by bob brown Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That helps a great deal with our packing. We are doing the 2 week Great Lakes cruise this fall and are really looking forward to it. We have sailed the river boats with American Queen and have really enjoyed them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
