Pontius Navigator Posted March 4, 2010 #1 Share Posted March 4, 2010 I guess the answer will be no kettles on Adventurer of the Seas; can anyone confirm or deny? What power sockets are there in the cabin? US 110v I would guess but what or UK or European sockets and 220-240v? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrChuckFL Posted March 4, 2010 #2 Share Posted March 4, 2010 There are both 110v and 220/240v sockets. (The 2 prong type) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare silentbob007 Posted March 4, 2010 #3 Share Posted March 4, 2010 No kettles on that particular ship I believe but both types of power sockets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
capnlars Posted March 4, 2010 #4 Share Posted March 4, 2010 We have had "kettles" on the last four or five cruises, but all have been in full suites. At first there was also a french press to make coffee, then those went away and we had real coffee makers, but still had the device to heat water.

Pontius Navigator Posted March 4, 2010 Author #5 Share Posted March 4, 2010 Super quick, thanks a lot. And for non-Brits, the reason we asked is that we NEED boiling water on to tea bags to make tea. None of your tepid water to which you add a tea bag. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like was mentioned, suites have the electric kettles.........after I had one in a suite,I went home and bought one................LOVE IT..

dixieva Posted March 4, 2010 #7 Share Posted March 4, 2010 Junior suites and above are supposed to have the kettles for hot water and a coffee maker on all ships. If you don't have one ask your room steward to find you one. It is advertised as a "perk" of the JS and above category rooms. Have a great cruise!

dixieva Posted March 4, 2010 #9 Share Posted March 4, 2010 The JS does not have all of the full suite perks but it does now have the coffee/tea service. Check out post number 4 of this thread on the same subject: http://boards.cruisecritic.com/showthread.php?t=1155895 Perks of JS listed directly from the RCCL web site. I've been in a JS with the service and it is very nice to have. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

None of your tepid water to which you add a tea bag. I thought that was your reason for asking, paired with your question about power outlets, I´m assuming you might think about bringing your own kettle. If that´s what you plan I just want to let you know that it´s against the rules to bring your own. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrChuckFL Posted March 4, 2010 #12 Share Posted March 4, 2010 We were on the Navigator in Dec in Junior Suite and it had a 4 cup coffee maker in the room. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JS don't get most of the full suite perks, but the hot water kettle and coffeemaker are mentioned as JS perks, too. Along with that special silver Seapass.:rolleyes: Radiance still doesn't have the coffeemakers in the JS cabins, either, at she didn't as of November. But Rhapsody did.

critterchick Posted March 4, 2010 #15 Share Posted March 4, 2010 Different ships,different ways of doing things...........so what else is new?:p True, but most of the things we've found to be different from ship to ship aren't advertised on the website as available on all ships. When I cruised Mariner last April the coffeemakers had not yet arrived and my cabin steward insisted that they weren't a JS item. By September they were onboard. I do wonder why they just can't make sure that each ship has them... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gas1208 Posted March 5, 2010 #16 Share Posted March 5, 2010 we were on AOS in Oct and had a room overlooking Promenade..no kettle i Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dixieva Posted March 5, 2010 #17 Share Posted March 5, 2010 I don't think those rooms are Junior Suites so that's why you didn't have a kettle or coffee service. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm a little tired of mopping up after I brew a pot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
