Christmas lights in cabin.

[topnole]

Can I bring a string of lights (led) to decorate the cabin or would they be confiscated?

Battery operated, wouldn't be a problem. I don't know for sure, but I think they don't like things that plug in.

I have a little USB Christmas Tree and Christmas lights that have never been confiscated.

Thanks.  I’ve seen folks with strings of lights before.  Not sure the type.   I figured plug in might be an issue.  Probably easier to just drop the idea.

I always take a tiny tree from the dollar store that has a string of mini plug-in lights.

We have taken those many years...never an issue.  Several years we decorated our CP balcony

They have no problems with it. We always brought it on winter holiday cruises. 3 lines, no problems

No issues at all. Various devices, lights aren’t issue.

Plug in lights

Had an attendant give us a warning when we put up our string of lights.  As soon as I showed her they were LED lights, and had her touch them, she let us keep them.

 

It's not the plug in that is the problem, it's the heat of the old style lights.  LED Christmas lights don't get hot.  

 

Have mine packed already (battery style) for our cruise on Saturday.  🙂

Carry on or do you risk checking them and having your luggage not show up?   I have a new box of Led lights.  They were very cheap, so I don’t care if they get confiscated.  I’m gonna try to bring them because the kids will love them in the cabin.

I put them in the carry on bag for two reasons....the electrical wire string could attract attention and being able to decorate while waiting for our luggage to arrive....perhaps while sipping on a welcome aboard glass of wine.  😉
