Sox Fan Cruiser Posted November 29, 2006 #1 Share Posted November 29, 2006 For the life of me I can't remember if there's an iron in the room? I know there are irons and ironing boards in the laundry rooms. I guess I blocked out the thought of anything having to do with the laundry!

Pam in CA Posted November 29, 2006 #2 Share Posted November 29, 2006 No iron in the cabin and you cannot use an iron in your cabin, particularly after the Star fire. There are irons and ironing boards in the laundry rooms. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just because you pay doesn't mean you get good ironing all the time. You should see some of the horrors that come back from the laundry. And, there are certain items some women wouldn't trust to anyone but themselves. Arlene Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MaryPoppinz Posted November 29, 2006 #7 Share Posted November 29, 2006 The onboard announcement during the muster now says that appliances in the cabin are prohibited unless they are thermostatically controlled. The problem, then, is that the ironing boards are in the laundry room......were you thinking of bringing one for the cabin? :) I've never had any problems with the ship's laundry, but I definitely don't test any theories by giving them everything I bring. We've also had good luck with hanging garment bags. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheNewMrsGriffin Posted November 29, 2006 #8 Share Posted November 29, 2006 Are travel-sized steamers allowed, or do they fall under the "iron" category, as well? Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cruisin' Chick Posted November 30, 2006 #13 Share Posted November 30, 2006 My daughter developed a skin sensitivity to most regular laundry detergent so we use the allergin free detergents. On our last cruise, someone offered some detergent (they had bought a regular size bottle as they couldn't find a travel size) to my hubby who was starting a load. Of course, she developed a rash when she wore the newly washed clothes. The next load, we used the allergin free All I had packed. And when we got home, all of her clothes went into the washer even if it was clean to make sure all of it was regular detergent free. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
