Octavias Posted March 3 #1 Share Posted March 3 We are preparing for our first cruise ever this May on Celebrity Edge. My husband thinks he read somewhere (on the Celebrity site) that you can only bring toiletries that fit in a quart sized ziplock. are there limits to the sizes you can bring on a cruise ship like there are for airplanes? We are driving to the port so won’t be flying in. Also, can we bring an aerosol bug spray? He thinks he saw somewhere that you can’t have that either. thank you!

No limit, as long as you can carry it. They do supply shampoo, body wash and lotion in each suite though. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NanaPam00 Posted March 3 #3 Share Posted March 3 No limit on size - we bring full size all the time. We have also brought bug spray, especially on Alaska sailings 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is reading restrictions that have to do with flying and the TSA limitations. The cruise ships have no such limitations for size or the type of spray you can bring. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Northern Aurora Posted March 3 #5 Share Posted March 3 While there will be shampoo, soap and such in your stateroom, many folks bring their preferred brands on board. You can bring what ever size you want to lug around. Also, if you run out of the Celebrity supplied toiletries your stateroom attendant will resupply. You can also bring aerosol bug spray, but personally I find the pre-moistened intellect repellant wipes to be much easier. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From the behaviors I have seen on board, especially when people are using elevators, I think that your intellect repellent might be working🤔 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GatorMomInNC Posted March 4 #8 Share Posted March 4 do they provide body wash for certain? I don't like using bar soap and I will bring my own body wash if not a standard amenity in a non-suite cabin (on the Eclipse). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We do not like the shampoo or body wash that is provided. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All cabins are provided, I know it's Bigelow in the suites on Summit and Edge but not sure if the same brand or not on Eclipse. Luckily I can use any brand and not botherd, it's great not having to pack it. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kaysha2004 Posted March 4 #11 Share Posted March 4 Bring as much of your personal toiletries in any size you wish on board. Celebrity has diluted the quality of their bath products in the recent past, so the products are cheap and watered down. Being a bit snarky here, I wonder if they use the same product for all liquid toiletries regardless of shampoo, hand soap, or body wash. There's no restriction on any kind of aerosol, like insect repellent. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare markeb Posted March 4 #14 Share Posted March 4 Size isn't really an issue. We find the products on board to generally be fine. I think DW tends to bring her own conditioner. I'm all but bald, so not really an issue. Neither of us find the products on board watered down or sub par. Admittedly our last cruises have been in the retreat. The body wash and shampoo are on par with a high end Marriott/Hilton hotel. I wear contacts, so I normally hit a CVS/Walgreens or if I'm lucky a Target the night before boarding to grab full sized contact lens products. Never had an issue. With a little luck, you'll find a Willamette Pinot Noir and/or Chardonnay on Edge and feel at home. Unfortunately, you'll probably have to pay full price for them 😱! And I agree, have a wonderful cruise! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare cruisetonowhere10 Posted March 4 #16 Share Posted March 4 Do they have conditioner in the bathrooms as well? And, is the hand soap a bar or a pump dispenser variety? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In AQ Class on Ascent it was all CO Bigelow pump btls but we asked for extra bar soaps to use in the shower. The products provided were shampoo, conditioner, body wash and body lotion. I bring my own trvl size hair products. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hand soap for the lavatories in the cabin are bar soap. Bodywash for shower. You can ask for as many bars of soap as you need. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
