skioncruises Posted June 27, 2012 #2 Share Posted June 27, 2012 Hi All Going on the Celebration in September (24th), can anyone please tell me if the power sockets are normal 3 pin type or round continental or flat pin type. How many usable power points in cabins. Also any Wifi on board. Any help will be appreciated. Thanks to all Hi Max011 From memory, apart from shaver socket in bathroom, I think there was only one outlet in the cabin and it was two pin round but we also take a flat pin as a precaution. We also take a four socket extension lead with a short (1 metre) cable as this is sufficient to charge a few things at once and sits comfortably on the dressing table. A hairdryer is hardwired into the top drawer in the dressing table. Sorry can't help with onboard wifi but do know that the crew all head on shore to the nearest cafes/bars. Follow them if you need to seek out an outlet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clive and anne Posted June 28, 2012 #3 Share Posted June 28, 2012 There also seemed to be another socket on the dressing table but as we only needed the one 2 pin round. socket I didnt look at its configuration. On the WIFI there is a service but our experience was that we paid £6 for 30 minutes (other choices available) and it was very slow and I guess we only got 20 mins of normal service. We were with the crew and took our laptop ashore to the local cafe and got thru for the price of a cup of coffee. It doesnt seem to matter whether they provide the computer or you use your own. Hope this helps Clive Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grez Posted June 28, 2012 #4 Share Posted June 28, 2012 I think the other socket is a 110v American style socket. If you take a european adaptor, and a short 4 socket extension you will be fine. As the sockets are quite close to the dressing table, you may find that some chargers won't fit directly into the socket, so the extension can come in handy. Most products these days work with different voltage, but just check on the side of them that they will work with 220v. As mentioned, use wi-fi ashore.

joeholiday2 Posted June 28, 2012 #6 Share Posted June 28, 2012 Plan for the European round pin type, but the refurbed cabins have a 13amp 3 pin UK socket ready for the kettle when they go Platinum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
