jdvmd Posted September 4, 2011 #26 Share Posted September 4, 2011 Robes have been on the personalizer for quite some time, but I have never seen a mattress topper listed to be requested in that section. Since it was only 3 years ago and I check out that section before each cruise, I can't see how I could have missed it. I have had to fax my request for years, which started back when they changed to the new and 'improved' mattresses. ;) Same with me -- only robes.

Mozo9 Posted September 4, 2011 #27 Share Posted September 4, 2011 The European cruise personaliser does not allow pre booking of anything, it relates to medical and dietary requirements only. Not everyone uses bathrobes, I find a bathrobe essential, but my DH does not. So, it makes sense to ask if you require one. As for the egg crate topping, I think I'll wait till I've tried out the bed for comfort, I can always complain to Stewart if we find it too uncomfortable, however, this hasn't happened yet and we've been on most of the popular cruise lines.

englishbird Posted September 4, 2011 #28 Share Posted September 4, 2011 Hi Holey. As usual, us here in the UK are treated differently to US passengers. We can not pre book bath robes or mattress toppers. Just ask your steward when he introduces him/her self. The robes may not appear until the 2nd day, as they will be being laundered. They are more than happy to help:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Holey Posted September 4, 2011 Author #29 Share Posted September 4, 2011 Thankyou all for your comments. Much appreciated.:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toto2Kansas Posted September 4, 2011 #30 Share Posted September 4, 2011 I just checked my cruise personalizer today for my upcoming and the robes were requested but there was not a option to request a mattress topper. That said, one of the first things I do when I get on board is request one. I wonder if I could get one for my side of the bed only? Mr.QT LOVES the Princess beds as is. They have both twin and queen mattress toppers. Just request a topper in a twin size for YOUR side of the bed. Shouldn't be a problem at all. ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Feelin' Nauti' Posted September 7, 2011 #32 Share Posted September 7, 2011 Isn't it strange how so many room stewards are named "stewart?" Actually in the world of the politically correct, it's not "steward" either....cabin attendant is more PC. ;) Unless his name is Stuart. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jagoffee Posted September 7, 2011 #33 Share Posted September 7, 2011 On our cruise on the Emerald they ran out of the egg crates. We sent a fax and I received a call from Princess saying that they did not have any more. It was the first cruise after a TA, so apparently they were very popular with those on the TA. I thought it was nice that they call to apologize. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trolley Dollie or Cart Tart might work for the female attendants. What do you call the males? (I'm almost afraid to hear the answer) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

repo-cruiser Posted September 8, 2011 #39 Share Posted September 8, 2011 Isn't it strange how so many room stewards are named "stewart?" Not suppose to make spelling comments. Isn't also how funny people make excuses for people from different countries for their rudeness unless there americans.:eek: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fuzzyape Posted September 8, 2011 #40 Share Posted September 8, 2011 Holey, As I'm sure you've surmised from most of the comments, enjoy the cruise, ask your steward (stuart, stewert, or whatever spelling folks want to use) for whatever you need. If they can't get it, they'll let you know. But I've always had luck in having my wishes fulfilled. Good luck, and have a great time! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
