How big are the in-room safes?

[Florida_chick]

Can someone please tell me how big the in-room safes are on Mariner of the Seas? Are they big enough to fit a laptop inside?

 

Thanks!!!

I was not on the Mariner, but on the Grandeur the safe was not large enough to hold a laptop.

I have never seen a safe on a ship that would be big enough to hold a laptop.

question about opening safes: On previous cruises our safe was always opened by a number combination that you set yourself--allowing anyone in your room to access it as long as they knew the code. I have read on other threads that some safes now use magnetic strips (found on credit cards) to open them. I'm not excited about that, since that means that only the person in possession of the card can access the safe. Does anyone know if the safes on the Grandeur have number combinations or magnetic strips to access them? (we are in a junior suite, if that makes a difference)

thanks for your help!

Your ship card/room key should work as well.

Does that mean that the of the room cards/seapasses/whatever will work on the safe in the room? I will be on the Mariner in a few weeks and have never used the safes, but I am thinking of doing so this time.

 

 

Thanks!

The Mariner safes use a code that you select.

For those of you who have taken laptops on the ship... what do you do with them while you are out of the room? Ever had any problems?

The Mariner safes use a code that you select.

 

The newer ships use the codes, the older ones use the cards.

I was on the Mariner in Feb. and my laptop fit in the safe.

I have left my laptop in the room in all hotels and (2) cruises I've taken and not had a problem. I usually tuck it into a drawer or something when gone for a while.

I feel much better about my laptop on the ship than a hotel room...I mean the only people with access to your room are the stewards, and they have nowhere to go with it if they were to consider taking it??

Not that I am insuating that they might take it, but I worry more about a random hotel employee more than any cruise ship staff.

 

I have NEVER seen a room safe large enough to accomodate a laptop.

Good luck!

Raysfun could I ask what size laptop you have?I`m planning on taking one with us for the first time.

 

Thank You.
