Hi all, my October 2020 cruise was recently cancelled :(  After much consideration I decided to request a full refund.  After I completed my online refund request a new screen came up which said "We received your submission. Please allow time for processing. Thank you for your patience and understanding".  Then within 5 minutes I also received an email confirmation from Carnival titled "Online Submission received"  with the following text "Thank for you making your online selection. This email acknowledgment confirms that your request has been submitted.....".  I read a previous post where someone said they did not receive any sort of confirmation from Carnival so thought it would be helpful to post my recent experience.  I am hoping to receive my full refund within a couple weeks. I look forward to cruising again soon hopefully in 2021.  

Yes, the 3 outlet tap inserted into the 110 volt US outlet would block access to the 220 volt Euro outlet. I was just pointing out that using a 3 outlet tap will increase your outlet usage from one to three. In the event someone forgot to pack their 3 outlet tap etc they could use the 110 volt US outlet AND the 220 volt Euro outlet at the same time thus increasing their outlet usage from one to two devices :) Just be sure the device plugged into the 220 volt Euro outlet is multi voltage.

Hello cruisers, I just returned from a 7 day cruise on the Carnival Miracle and wanted to share some information regarding electric outlets in the cabin. There is only 1 outlet in the cabin located above the dresser. The outlet has one Euro style 220 volt outlet and one US style 120 volt outlet (see picture 1). If you need more outlets for your electronics you can bring a simple 3 outlet tap (see picture 2). I got this outlet tap from home improvement store for about $3. You could bring an outlet strip or extension cord as well. Outlet taps and outlet strips must be non surge protected per Carnival rules.. There is one more electric outlet in the bathroom but it is marked for shavers only.

Also, in case you forget an outlet tap etc. and need one more outlet you can use the Euro 220 volt outlet provided your electronic device is multi voltage (ex.100 to to 240 volt - 50/60Hz). Most cell phone chargers, ebook chargers, laptops, are multi voltage compatible but check your device's charger to confirm. I have read some posts that say you need a Euro to US outlet adapter to use the Euro outlet, this is not the case with the particular outlet on the Miracle. If you look closely at the Euro 220 volt outlet it actually has a US style two prong plug slot vertically within the outlet. It is located directly beneath the "USA-2P" lettering within the outlet (see picture 1). Just turn your US style 2 prong plug vertical and you can then insert your US plug into the Euro style outlet. I tested this with my US style phone charger and it worked fine. Again, just confirm your device is multi voltage compatible.
