hirobmay Posted June 28, 2014 #1 Share Posted June 28, 2014 Last year on our lovely Princess cruise we got a free blue beach bag with the Princess cruise logo on it. Albeit rather cheap these were a smash hit with all cruisers and my Missus love it. Can we expect similar from 'X'? For me, I like stuff like the dailes & a free bag as the best sort of souvenirs. Rob.:rolleyes: (told you it was lame!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WestLakeGirl Posted June 28, 2014 #2 Share Posted June 28, 2014 There is a celebrity bag in each stateroom. More expensive rooms get better quality bags Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

royalcruz Posted June 28, 2014 #4 Share Posted June 28, 2014 I'm not sure which bags Princess is giving away these days but I remember them being pretty decent. The ones Celebrity gives you in regular staterooms are really cheap (weightless), but good if you forgot to bring a beach bag. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OCruisers Posted June 28, 2014 #5 Share Posted June 28, 2014 Love those big weightless beach bags from Celebrity! It's big enough for two beach towels and water shoes ... not so weightless at that point. :D DH carries that one and I take our regular beach bag.

boogs Posted June 28, 2014 #6 Share Posted June 28, 2014 (edited) There is a celebrity bag in each stateroom. More expensive rooms get better quality bags Depending on stateroom category, you will either receive a cloth bag, or a nicer, heavier duty canvas like bag. I believe all categories from Concierge Class and above receive the nicer bag. Here is a recent post from another thread that has a small photo of these bags. http://boards.cruisecritic.com/showpost.php?p=42590256&postcount=20 Amusingly, I have seen these free tote bags being sold on eBay. The nicer ones were listed at $16.99. I guess they are trying to recoup some of the cost of their cruise? :D Edited June 28, 2014 by boogs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pushka Posted June 29, 2014 #8 Share Posted June 29, 2014 I think I'd prefer the lighter cloth ones so all good. I didn't even know we would get one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cruisnpat Posted June 29, 2014 #9 Share Posted June 29, 2014 I would love it if RC would give out bags like that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neverbeenhere Posted June 29, 2014 #10 Share Posted June 29, 2014 Once in a while, you may not have a bag in your stateroom. Ask your stateroom attendant and he or she will get you one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Cruise Raider Posted June 29, 2014 #11 Share Posted June 29, 2014 The Celebrity bags in all categories less than the concierge level are the same fabric that are used on Princess. The Princess bag is a tad larger and the seams are a little more heavy duty, though....but basically the same type of bag. The ones on Princess are a bright blue and on Celebrity, navy blue in color with their logo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neverbeenhere Posted June 29, 2014 #12 Share Posted June 29, 2014 why do the Celebrity bags have the Princess logo on them?:p:p Sorry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Project_gal Posted June 29, 2014 #13 Share Posted June 29, 2014 Depending on stateroom category, you will either receive a cloth bag, or a nicer, heavier duty canvas like bag. I believe all categories from Concierge Class and above receive the nicer bag. ALL categories receive the light-weight clot bags. The nicer bags in the higher categories are in addition to the cloth bags. The design of the "nicer" bags change regularly. We have quite a selection.

Zedjp3 Posted June 29, 2014 #14 Share Posted June 29, 2014 Just realize that using the bags at the cruise ports marks you as a cruise tourist (shopper) to all of the merchants! Lisa Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
