Jessicalou Posted August 9, 2012 #1 Share Posted August 9, 2012 Hi all, I'm travelling on the Sun this weekend and wondered if I will be able to use my UK plugs on the ship or do I need some sort of adaptor? Any ideas would be gratefully received :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Clay Clayton Posted August 9, 2012 #2 Share Posted August 9, 2012 I know there are two types of sockets one of which is the US standard but unfortunately I don't know the difference between a UK socket and a European one. Unless I am mistaken, the only sockets are located on the desk and I believe there is only one of each. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PorkChopKid Posted August 9, 2012 #3 Share Posted August 9, 2012 On every NCL ship we've been on there are TWO outlets at the desk. One is US standard and voltage. The other is for 220v but usually lacks the adapter. In this picture, the outlet on the LEFT is the 220v and just happened to have an adapter in it. I suspect the room steward can get you the adapter if its missing....

Jessicalou Posted August 9, 2012 Author #4 Share Posted August 9, 2012 Thank you both :) It might be worth taking my own adapter then... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PorkChopKid Posted August 9, 2012 #5 Share Posted August 9, 2012 Found this thread with a picture of what the 220v outlet looks like without the adapter. Not sure how readily available these adapters are. I did see a name for these but was unable to find it. http://boards.cruisecritic.com/showthread.php?t=1242376&highlight=220v+outlet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OceanDreaming2 Posted August 9, 2012 #6 Share Posted August 9, 2012 We travel with an adapter when cruising. It gives us an additional outlet. Sometimes a coffee maker is plugged into the European outlet which we ask to have removed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
