Brisbanelionsfan Posted September 18, 2012 #1 Share Posted September 18, 2012 I am sailing on the Solstice in November and I have Australian three point plugs on my hairdryer and straightner, what sort of outlets do the ship have? I will buy an adaptor before we go if needed. Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lsimon Posted September 18, 2012 #2 Share Posted September 18, 2012 This ships have both 110V North American style outlets and 220V European style outlets. The Solstice S class ships have two 110V outlets and one of the 220v outlets, M class have two of each. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The straightener should be dual voltage so hopefully will be ok. mummsie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BrusselsGirl07 Posted September 19, 2012 #6 Share Posted September 19, 2012 Most small appliances are multi-voltage, but I just took the Australian to European adaptor and plugged my hairdryer into the European socket to be safe. But we also take Australian to US adaptors for charging phones, cameras and ipads as well. Just take both kinds of adaptors and then check out the voltage your appliance needs before deciding which to use. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
