Rare JamieLogical Posted October 18, 2023 #1 Share Posted October 18, 2023 (edited) After my first (and hopefully only!) encounter with a cruise ship bathroom shower curtain on the Emerald Princess last year, I refuse to go on any more ships with shower curtains instead of shower doors. Because of that, I decided to put together a list of MSC ships that have shower curtains so I can know which ships to avoid when booking future cruises. I figured I might as well share it here in case anyone else has a similar aversion to shower curtains.

davy jones Posted October 18, 2023 #2 Share Posted October 18, 2023 Thanks for the information. Most, including me, prefer shower doors over showers, but it has never been a deciding factor for us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, after I formed a deep and intimate life partnership with the shower curtain in my cabin on the Emerald Princess, it would feel like cheating to ever be in another cruise ship cabin with a shower curtain. 😋 1 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Two Wheels Only Posted October 18, 2023 #5 Share Posted October 18, 2023 (edited) Does MSC get half credit or full credit when there is a 1/2 door? ...or no actual door?😉 Edited October 18, 2023 by Two Wheels Only Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a tub/shower curtain combo at home. The challenge comes when the "shower" is 2'x2' and it is impossible to avoid constant clinging of the shower curtain to one's body. I should have included in my OP that I am only looking at standard balcony cabin bathrooms, as that is the cabin type that I usually book on any ship.

davy jones Posted October 19, 2023 #9 Share Posted October 19, 2023 We are sailing Mera so we will have a shower door. I may bump up against the door, but water does not spill onto the floor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tierun Posted October 19, 2023 #10 Share Posted October 19, 2023 I remember when discovery princess came out and I was flabbergasted when I saw shower curtains. Who would do that to a modern vessel? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They basically haven't changed their cabin designs since the 90's. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rebeccac Posted October 19, 2023 #13 Share Posted October 19, 2023 Two things: 1. The Sun Princess will finally have shower doors. 2. If you are on a ship with shower curtains, bring binder clips and clip them to the bottom of the curtain. Solves the issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am not sure it would solve the issue for me as the showers are so tiny and I think I would still have issues with parts of my body rubbing up against and sticking to the shower curtain. I am a very wide person. It's not as bad with a solid surface like a door or a wall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
miched Posted October 21, 2023 #15 Share Posted October 21, 2023 Old joke, and daddy joke to pull on anyone. Do you know the difference between a shower curtain and toilet paper? Answer: No. So you are the one that been using our shower curtain. 😱 Happy cruising 🌊🚢🇺🇸🌅 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
