stvntra Posted August 19 #1 Share Posted August 19 Okay, I know this sounds like a really dumb question (and given, it probably is), but I've never had a King size bed on a cruise ship before so here it goes.... am I right to "assume" that the size of the pillows on the King bed are actually King size as well, or are they Queens? I have looked the cabin number up on their website, as well as Google and none of the photos show a good clear photo of them. Also, are they down or hard, etc.? Thanks in advance for the help! 🙂 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare WrittenOnYourHeart Posted August 19 #4 Share Posted August 19 Considering the "King" is made by pushing 2 twins together, having King pillows wouldn't really work for those times the beds are separated. I've found that usually there are 2 that are a little firmer and 2 that are a little softer. Not sure if they're down or not - either not or they are hypoallergenic since they don't bother me and down pillows can do that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you - I wasn't sure if they were actually 2 twins pushed together in the concierge category or true Kings. I knew they were 2 twins pushed together in other categories, so again, I wasn't sure. I will plan for them to be Queens then. Also, thanks for the information on the Hypoallergenic - that was the other word I was looking for other than "down". 🙂 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare keesar Posted August 19 #6 Share Posted August 19 Not down pillows. They are queen size. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Northern Aurora Posted August 20 #7 Share Posted August 20 There are a variety of pillows available. If you are not satisfied with what is initially on the bed just ask your stateroom attendant for something else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks in advance for the help! 🙂 Nominally, as noted by others, we usually find 2 fluffier and 2 less fluffy ones come 'standard'. Am guessing that's actually a pair of the last two on the list below. Here's their 'pillow' menu that they offer to Concierge and 'above' cabin classes: Pillow Menu: Body Pillow – The feather and down body pillow provides full body comfort and is ideal for guest with body aches. Hypo Allergenic Pillow – Much like natural down feathers, this pillow provides ultimate comfort and support for all sleeping positions. Swedish Isotonic Pillow – Isotonic reacts to your body temperature and physique to provide true, customized relaxation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good to know I can get feather / down pillows or hypo allergenic pillows. I've never heard of Swedish Isotonic pillows though - those could be interesting. Again, I appreciate the help!

They had two types. The down and the hypo-allergenic pillows were the choices. I remember the days when there were at least 4 choices on the pillow menus left in the room.

I guess I was never aware of all the choices on our cruises for pillows. We just always used what we had! LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
