RaiderCruiser1971 Posted January 22, 2016 #1 Share Posted January 22, 2016 OK, I'm getting really excited for our upcoming Jewel of the Seas Southern Caribbean cruise, but I have a couple of questions. 1. What kind of toiletries do they have? Don't know if it makes a difference, but we'll be staying in an inside cabin. I imagine they'll have bars of soap and/or soap dispenser, but what about shampoo, lotion, etc.? 2. With the ship sailing at 8:30 PM and the muster drill between 7:00 and 8:30, how do they do dinner that evening? Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At a minimum, you will get two bars of soap and a dispenser of combo shampoo/conditioner in the shower. If you want more, ask your stateroom attendant, they have been known to provide the amenities that the suites normally get.

Hoopster95 Posted January 22, 2016 #3 Share Posted January 22, 2016 2. With the ship sailing at 8:30 PM and the muster drill between 7:00 and 8:30, how do they do dinner that evening? Thanks. Muster for my sailing last month was at 7:30. They will not allow you to book specialty dinner for 7pm seating for example.. you either have to book early or 8pm and later. Early seating at the Main dining room they will have you out on time as well for muster, and then the normal 8pm seating on the first night.

You will get bar soap in your cabin with the infamous "all purpose" gel in the shower. You can ask your cabin attendant for the small bottles of shampoo/lotion/conditioner. Muster drill was at 8:00 with our 8:30 departure. All venues were closed at 7:45 and then reopened at the conclusion of the drill. If you have traditional early seating at 6PM, you would be done. If you have late seating at 8:30 you won't be affected. MTD closes at 7:45 and then reopens at the conclusion of the drill. Muster for my sailing last month was at 7:30. They will not allow you to book specialty dinner for 7pm seating for example.. you either have to book early or 8pm and later. Early seating at the Main dining room they will have you out on time as well for muster, and then the normal 8pm seating on the first night. We did a b2b2b on Jewel beginning December 20th and on all 3 cruises Muster Drill was at 8PM. Main Seating was 6:00 and Late was 8:30. MTD began at 5:30.

foxgoodrich Posted January 22, 2016 #5 Share Posted January 22, 2016 Definitely bring your own lotion, shampoo, & conditioner. And don't forget your sunscreen! I forgot ours once and ended up paying 3 times what I should have for some sunscreen in the shop onboard. Judy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hoopster95 Posted January 22, 2016 #8 Share Posted January 22, 2016 (edited) No problem. We all know how times can change from one cruise to the next.:D Agreed:) ... but you're right on this one. Rethinking my first night we went to Chop's at 6:30 and were told we needed to be out before muster (muster could not have been 7:30 if we were seatet at 6:30!).
