Can I get distilled water on the ship? I need it for my CPAP machine. TIA...

We always send a request to fleet medical after final payment date to request it. You can fax the request to 661-753-0121

We've always just asked our room steward or called room service. It arrived in minutes - an entire gallon container. But if you are worried, then a fax to fleet medical like Toto suggested would be a good idea. It's never been necessary for us though.

the ship's water is distilled. The first time I was taking my CPAP, I asked the medical

supply I got it from, and they said use the ship's water out of the tap. So that's what

I've done since, no problem.

Yes the ship's water is distilled, but they do add chlorine to it prior to it going into the system as to avoid contamination within the pipes. So not completely chemical free if you are worried about resiude on your humidifier chamber.

 

As for regular distilled water, we just contacted the ship's dietary coordinator prior to sailing, they have the gallon ordered, and then we called room service when we got on board and they delivered it to our room. They mentioned to us that there may be a nominal charge for the water, but we never received a charge on any of our Princess sailings.

I usually just ask our room steward when get get settled for it, and it's in my room a while later...

To de-salinate the water, I think it has to be distilled right from the ocean to the tap (I think that was shown on the "behind the scenes" tour?). Don't the ships sometimes get water from the ports we stop @ though?, if so, it probably isn't distilled.
