Cpap's are not a problem. My DH uses one and has not had any problems. We hand carry it on board to avoid damage. On some ships there is no electrical receptacle near the bed and our room attendant runs an extension cord under the bed. You can order a gallon of distilled water prior to your cruise or request one after boarding. Enjoy your cruise! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skurvish Posted October 31, 2022 #3 Share Posted October 31, 2022 Ditto what Cajuntraveler said. I bring my own extension cord. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SusieKIslandGirl Posted October 31, 2022 #5 Share Posted October 31, 2022 We've found that on some ships you can find an outlet behind the bed. It often has a bedside table lamp plugged into it so we have a European adapter that has a couple of plug-ins. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fusion927 Posted November 3, 2022 #6 Share Posted November 3, 2022 Depending on the ship, there might be power beside the bed. The Pinnacle ships have that, don't remember if the Signature or Vista ships do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Might I recommend you fill out the Special Requirements form? It's located Right Here. You'll need your booking number and last name. From there, under the section "Respiratory needs" you can let them know he will be bringing a CPAP, and you can even request distilled water. This may help prepare the staff a little better so that they can provide an extension cord as necesary. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Urban trekker Posted November 5, 2022 #8 Share Posted November 5, 2022 On the Koningsdam there are bedside outlets - was able to use my CPAP machine without the need for an extension cord although I brought one just in case. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
