missypriss19 Posted January 22, 2014 #14 Share Posted January 22, 2014 I read on another blog from a person who was on the ship and on the same floor. The smoke was from some stupid passenger stuffing a towel in a vent to make the room hotter with the heat on. This caused the system to overheat and smoke. People thought there was a fire due to water seen in the corridor but it was an unrelated event of a shower in one of the cabins backing up.

Thereby proving that very oftenthe most dangerous thing on your cruise ship is idiot passengers doing dumb things like not washing their hands/properly -and stuffing towels into heating vents!! .

Lace Posted January 22, 2014 #16 Share Posted January 22, 2014 The OP doesnt sail Carnival but likes to stir the pot:rolleyes: I believe I read that the Cruise Critic editor editor advises people not to cruise Carnival. Is there a correlation there too? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How would it make the room hotter by stuffing a towel in the vent? With the heat on.. That would block the heat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caddyrag Posted January 22, 2014 #20 Share Posted January 22, 2014 How would it make the room hotter by stuffing a towel in the vent? With the heat on.. That would block the heat I"m glad you asked that question, I was thinking the same thing but didn't want to speak up in case I was missing something that was probably very obvious.

billie5 Posted January 22, 2014 #23 Share Posted January 22, 2014 (edited) Or it is possible that someone idiotic enough to stuff a vent might have felt cool air coming out during a brief heat-off interval and decided to eliminate the draft by stuffing the vent. It is unlikely that stuffing an outgoing vent (if there were any) would cause heat buildup beyond what a sensor could tolerate. It is also possible that he/she felt their room was too warm!
