BurgerBits Posted November 26, 2008 #2 Share Posted November 26, 2008 There's another thread with this same topic somewhere... In any event, FOR SURE, no. There are no irons or clothing steamers available on Solstice for passenger use. There are also no passenger laundry rooms (washer/dryer facilities).

dkjretired Posted November 26, 2008 #3 Share Posted November 26, 2008 Don't want to pack the steamer if there are irons to use. Anyone know FOR SURE. Both Irons and Steamers are not permitted on board Celebrity ships. Are steamers allowed onboard? Subject: Ship and Stateroom Details Steamers or irons are not allowed onboard. However, there is a full laundry and dry-cleaning service available onboard for a reasonable rate. http://www.celebritycruises.com/beforeyourcruise/faq/home.do;jsessionid=0000zHZhS6yNFu5-SwLQ5T5kLkf:12h3rnd1c?faqSubjectName=Ship+and+Stateroom+Details&faqId=3183&pagename=faq_answers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

THey expect everyone to dress up and then they don't have an ironing room. You would think they could have splurged for a $50 iron and and ironing board.

Try bringing the Downy Wrinkle Release. It actually works great. Just spray it on the garment and hang it in the bathroom while you shower. Between the Downy and the steam you should be wrinkle free. Keep in mind that we are all in the same boat...so to speak.:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The prices are the same or cheaper than I pay at home. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cruiseyguy Posted November 26, 2008 #7 Share Posted November 26, 2008 It is not a matter of "cost"--it is a serious fire hazard. No cruise ship allows irons in passenger cabins. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KY Deb Posted November 26, 2008 #8 Share Posted November 26, 2008 There is a new product out being advertised called SWASH. You spray it on your wrinkled clothes, smooth them out, no more wrinkles. Has anyone tried it? Sounds like a solution to our cruise wrinkle problems. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TRadle Posted November 26, 2008 #9 Share Posted November 26, 2008 I hadn't heard of that and looked it up. It seems to be Tide's version of Downy Wrinkle Release. I like how it is not a pump sprayer. It looks like it will give better coverage of the garment. Thanks for the tip!:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cruiseyguy Posted November 26, 2008 #10 Share Posted November 26, 2008 fancymeetingyouhere-You may want to find another cruise line. Celebrity does not, and never has had, self-service laundry rooms onboard (although its upscale Azamara line does). Plus, you may want to check out the new smoking rules--very few areas for smokers onboard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tricia28 Posted November 26, 2008 #11 Share Posted November 26, 2008 Do steamers really pose more of a fire threat than a lit cigarette or a curling iron left on in a cabin? I am curious because (don't flame me) Princess has always had laundry rooms with irons and ironing boards and their big fire on board was caused by a cigarette on the balcony. Downey wrinkle release as well as hanging garments in the bathroom while you take a hot shower usually helps. My husband has actually pressed his sleeves with my daughter's flat iron for her hair! I just hate sending clothes out to be pressed beacuse the cruise line assumes no liability if something happens to the garment in most cases.

gofeo Posted November 27, 2008 #16 Share Posted November 27, 2008 NCL has laundry and irons for guests. I was wondering how to smooth out my white shirt for formal nights. Guess will have to send them out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guess will have to send them out. That's what we always do. I don't bother pressing things that are easily creased and budget about $10 to have it all done onboard. It's about a dollar for a shirt to be pressed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lizardrex Posted November 27, 2008 #21 Share Posted November 27, 2008 Is there a charge to putt on the lawn? This was posted on another thread: 2. There was no charge to putt the lawn club, although it was only open at certain times throughout the day (other times the lawn was 'resting') and there were only 3 clubs available to be shared. There was a nice seating area along-side of this you could relax or watch people putt. __________________ Steve :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
