daiB Posted September 23, 2016 #101 Share Posted September 23, 2016 The only problem John is that the Ligurian launderette would have to be equipped with top of the range machines otherwise it may not get much use!:D It's always interesting to see those with enough money to cruise many times a year, often in the most expensive suites, wanting perks and freebies that those of us who are not so fortunate have to pay for. :rolleyes: I will now take shelter from the flak coming my way:) Can I just say, thank you.

jeanlyon Posted September 23, 2016 #103 Share Posted September 23, 2016 I have to agree with you. For me the free laundry I receive on Princess makes my holiday.I hate having to queue for a machine, queue for a drier and then queue for an iron. A holiday without having to do laundry is indeed wonderful:):):):) Oh God, I don't do laundry on holiday. Quite happy to take it home with me and yes that includes a 30 day cruise. I might have washed out my underwear but that's it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On Princess I do send non-delicate / inexpensive things to the laundry on board because it is free but otherwise I bring it home. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scriv Posted September 23, 2016 #105 Share Posted September 23, 2016 I also never do it on holiday, heaven forbid. There's plenty of time for that once back home :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeanlyon Posted September 23, 2016 #106 Share Posted September 23, 2016 (edited) Thought I was going to be on my own there! for next week, once I have counted out 19 pairs of knickers, I will be happy! LOL I am always amazed when I walk by the laundry and there are loads of people in there. Nope, tried it once in my early days, never again. What a lot of bitchy people!

Scriv Posted September 23, 2016 #107 Share Posted September 23, 2016 My first and last experience was popping in there to see what was there after a week in the Fjords - saw a couple both busy ironing. They had spent the entire last day doing all their washing and ironing and had it all on hangers ready to take home and put away in the wardrobe. They were really pleased with themselves, whereas to me, that was a total waste of my last day's holiday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeanlyon Posted September 23, 2016 #108 Share Posted September 23, 2016 When I went in there, all the machines were being used except one that said "Out of Order". While I chatted to a lady doing her ironing, a another lady arrived, removed the Out of Order sign, put her washing in, set it in motion and left with the sign.!!

I might have washed out my underwear but that's it. Well surely that's the attraction of free laundry! Just pop it all in a bag, hand it to the steward and it comes back the following day on hangers all clean and pressed ready for packing! no need to spend time in the launderette and no need to spend days washing and ironing after the cruise.:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

weylady Posted September 24, 2016 #111 Share Posted September 24, 2016 I must admit I take 2hours doing my laundry on the last day as I am back to work the next day and it is usually raining and I don't want it hanging around the house plus my live at home adult kids boys and a lazy daughter in law have forgotten how to use the washing machine.

jeanlyon Posted September 24, 2016 #112 Share Posted September 24, 2016 Your fault for not teaching them! Damned if I would do it for them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Florry Posted September 24, 2016 #113 Share Posted September 24, 2016 Since we were last on Arcadia all of the machines have been replaced so they are super quick (still effective) and there is better aircon in there. I went in to wash a few items this week and there were no fights!!! Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jeanlyon Posted September 25, 2016 #116 Share Posted September 25, 2016 I should have also said, of course if it was free, would get it all done, just can't be doing with the laundry room! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
