ready2cruzagain Posted October 6, 2011 #2 Share Posted October 6, 2011 Bring your own clock there are none in the room. A nite lite will not work in the bathroom outlet I don't think...it will work in the only other outlet in the room. I take a plug adapter so I can plug in more than one device at a time.

Lefty Writer Posted October 6, 2011 #3 Share Posted October 6, 2011 There are no clocks, that I know of, at least on the Conquest class ships. We bring a small travel alarm clock for the times we need to be up for something specific. Yes, you can bring a night light for the bathroom, but I reccomend a small flashlight. It's more versitile than a night light. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
serene56 Posted October 6, 2011 #4 Share Posted October 6, 2011 you cannot bring a night lite for the bathroom- there is no place to plug it in. The outlet in the bathroom is for electric shavers only. (we use a small flashlight. or those tap lights) -- do not use your cell phone as a alarm clock- it will automatically change time to reflect any time changes on island time. The telephone has a wake up service that you program Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AWCHIEF Posted October 6, 2011 #5 Share Posted October 6, 2011 never mind serene beat me to it, about the cell phone. . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
okgirl Posted October 6, 2011 #6 Share Posted October 6, 2011 You can set a wakeup call on the phone, but the trouble with that is you have to get out of bed to answer it........I always travel with a battery powered alarm clock. We usually leave the bathroom light on so my sister can see her way to it. The time is also displayed on the television, which many times we leave on at night as well. I actually wear a watch when I'm on the ship because clocks are few and far between and I like knowing what time it is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
discjoker Posted October 6, 2011 #7 Share Posted October 6, 2011 Most cell phones allow you to disable the network auto-update as well as letting you manually set the clock. So if you do that, no problem using your cell phone as a clock/alarm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Room Service! Posted October 6, 2011 #8 Share Posted October 6, 2011 You can also just crack the bathroom door and leave the light on. Happy Sailin'! :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mel23 Posted October 6, 2011 #9 Share Posted October 6, 2011 never mind serene beat me to it. On my cruise last month we kept our phones (iPhones) on airplane mode - turned the function on when we were leaving port and off when we returned after 7 days. The majority of phones nowadays have this feature. The time can't change because it turns off all phone and data capabilities, but you can still use other functions such as non-internet/data based games. I recommend doing that and then you can use your phone as an alarm and stay on ship time without a hitch. No extra charges for roaming on the phone bills either. If you have a smart phone, you could also use it as a night light: turn off the feature that auto locks the screen and turn the brightness of the screen very low so it doesn't keep you awake, then leave the screen on all night. I'd say to keep the phone plugged in to its charger if you do this to prevent the battery from dying overnight. Happy sailing! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
serene56 Posted October 6, 2011 #10 Share Posted October 6, 2011 You can also just crack the bathroom door and leave the light on.Happy Sailin'! :) but if you hit some rough waters that door will move back and forth creating a lot of noise. to keep the door from slamming open and close-- fold a towel over the top of the door I wish they had a dimmer in the bathroom- coz turning that on in the middle of the night is blinding.

golfadj Posted October 6, 2011 #11 Share Posted October 6, 2011 We leave light on in bathroom and close the door. Works great as nightlite. I am an early riser so no alarm needed. Wear watch to tell time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
popeye0429 Posted October 6, 2011 Author #12 Share Posted October 6, 2011 :) Thanks for all the great posts ! We'll bring a small flashlite and battery operated clock. I tend to wake up a few times in the nite ... usually 4ish ... I don't want to "bother" my other half with toe stubbing and swearing ...... and thinking it's time to hit breakfast ... tho ..... Leaving the bathroom lite on and closing the door should work ... we do that in the hotels we visit. Yahooooo ... couple more days ... I can hear Pride calling us ! ! ! Happy Crusin to ALL ..!

crusinpsychRN Posted October 6, 2011 #13 Share Posted October 6, 2011 I take a small travel alarm clock. Got the thing in a Time magazine give away about 30 years ago. I've only changed the battery once and it still works! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
usrbphi Posted October 6, 2011 #14 Share Posted October 6, 2011 You can buy battery powered night lights at any store that sells outdoor gear. That is what we have. Works great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rosefloater Posted October 7, 2011 #16 Share Posted October 7, 2011 We leave light on in bathroom and close the door. Works great as nightlite. This is what we do. There is space between the bottom of the door and the floor, so you can see some light. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colorado Kat Posted October 7, 2011 #17 Share Posted October 7, 2011 Outside your cabin, the only reliable spot I have seen clocks are in the stairwells, at each floor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
