numberguy Posted March 24, 2016 #26 Share Posted March 24, 2016 After lots of cruises, I have never heard of this. Wouldn't want to utilize it with a bag with meds/camera/electronics, but interesting. gary I know they had this for my Norwegian/North Sea cruise on the Star in 2014. It was in the Asian restaurant, if I remember correctly. --Michael Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EleventyBangBang Posted March 24, 2016 #27 Share Posted March 24, 2016 (edited) My current plan is to check my case of water with a luggage tag taped to it, and walk on with my standard-sized rolling carry on. I do plan on going for a Vibe pass, so this means I will be toting my suitcase around for awhile until rooms are ready. I will go somewhere besides the buffet for that first lunch. (which I was going to do anyway.) I understand this would be a great time to hit Margaritaville, yes?

Barb Nahoumi Posted March 24, 2016 #28 Share Posted March 24, 2016 Yes, we keep the carry-ons with us, and have lunch at the MDR. The large suitcases go to the porters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare BirdTravels Posted March 24, 2016 #29 Share Posted March 24, 2016 so is checkin on a ship about the same as airport. im gathering so from this thread. metal detectors. all that good stuff. Metal detectors. Xrayed baggage (looking for both weapons and contraband - alcohol). Same will be true of your checked luggage. Weapons or alcohol will send your bags to the naughty room where you will have to collect it after sailing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slmorange Posted March 24, 2016 #30 Share Posted March 24, 2016 Are the bags that you check typically in your room when your room is ready? Or do they come later? Wondering if I need to keep a change of clothes for dinner the first night in my carton. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spidybabe Posted March 25, 2016 #31 Share Posted March 25, 2016 Some cabins will get them early, some later. Earliest we got was about muster time, mostly before dinner. Last cruise our luggage was damaged, so that arrived late (understandably) to our cabin. Safe sailing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Resort casual is the dress code so no need for anything too fancy but a clean shirt/top makes one feel better anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wondering if I need to keep a change of clothes for dinner the first night in my carton. On first night the tighter dress codes for dinner are not enforced because not all might get their bags before that. IIRC they will write down your report of a missing bag only if you haven't gotten it by 7pm, but is isn't that unusual for some bags only come later, between 5pm and 7pm. Generally we have received ours usually by 3pm to 5pm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
