Ted Kell Posted November 16, 2012 #1 Share Posted November 16, 2012 Can anybody tell me what the item is that seems to be on top of the bed on the first day of Carnival cruises. I have seen it in a lot of photos and it kind of looks like one of those bags you would carry a suit in. I see it in a lot of reviews so I am guessing it is something that comes with the room. Here is a photo http://pictures.cruisecritic.com/data/513/Cabin2314-595.jpg. Probably something bloody obvious but I can't work it out. Thanks Ted Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scifisteve Posted November 16, 2012 #2 Share Posted November 16, 2012 At a guess, a mat to unpack your suitcase on, protecting the sheets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

susie8862 Posted November 16, 2012 #4 Share Posted November 16, 2012 At a guess, a mat to unpack your suitcase on, protecting the sheets. Correct....and after you unpack, your room steward will remove it. On your last night on the ship (when everyone is packing) the steward will put it back on your bed.:o:o Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ted Kell Posted November 16, 2012 Author #5 Share Posted November 16, 2012 Well I will be buggered I would never have guessed that. I thought it was some type of storage pack for your hanging clothes. Ahh well mystery solved thanks for that. Cheers Ted Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Krazy Kruizers Posted November 16, 2012 #9 Share Posted November 16, 2012 A sad reminder that your cruise is almost over. Ah -- but remember at the beginning of the cruise those luggage mats welcome you to unpack your luggage and have a fun time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chipq Posted November 17, 2012 #11 Share Posted November 17, 2012 And it does save the bed covers from a mess. I received one of our bags that must ahve been under a bag that must have had a rum-runner malfunction. This bag was soaked from rum and after unpacking and organizing the clothes than needed laundry, the bag sat on the balcony to dry for the first two days. http://luv2cruise.blogspot.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Keith1010 Posted December 2, 2012 #13 Share Posted December 2, 2012 Just want to note that every cruise line we have sailed on uses them. Not only good for protection the bed spread/cover but also from a sanitary point of view makes sense. Keith Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
