Airrace Posted January 28, 2018 #1 Share Posted January 28, 2018 Has anyone used streamers on their debarment cruise? I was thinking of purchasing a few of them to bring back old memories. Sent from my iPad using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
colocop004 Posted January 28, 2018 #2 Share Posted January 28, 2018 I am pretty sure they are not allowed any more......... Sent from my iPad using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ECCruise Posted January 28, 2018 #4 Share Posted January 28, 2018 Nothing can be thrown off the side of a ship. Leave streamers at home. Sent from my KFDOWI using Forums mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Airrace Posted January 28, 2018 Author #7 Share Posted January 28, 2018 Yes for me it was about reliving memories. I found some that are eco friendly, no harm to the ocean or animals. I going to try and pop one off and spend the rest time enjoying the memory. If only now I could figure out a way to let family and friends on board for a pre party. Nice to have good memories!

twodjs Posted January 28, 2018 #10 Share Posted January 28, 2018 Airrace - This REALLY upsets me. What part of NOTHING don't you understand? If I were next to you, I'd wrestle you to the ground and have you confined to the brig the entire cruise. I'm very serious. Relive your memory by using them inside your cabin. Streamers over the edge are off limits, period!:mad::mad: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare mom says Posted January 28, 2018 #14 Share Posted January 28, 2018 You really think violence is the key to handing this question, just shows how un stable you are! Get a life and do something constructive. Sent from my iPad using Forums Physical violence certainly not an acceptable response to the execrable action you are threatening. Perhaps having security confine you to your quarters or have you thrown off the ship would be preferable. If only now I could figure out a way to let family and friends on board for a pre party. This is not permitted, but I think you're already well aware of this. Another example of your disregard for the rules and policies? Has anyone ever told you that you have a self entitlement problem?

Lineaway Posted January 28, 2018 #15 Share Posted January 28, 2018 Airrace mentions they are going to "pop one off," .... may even have more than one. I am getting the impression these streamers may be what I remember as a small plastic bottle with a string on the end. They have a tiny explosive charge (like what would go in a kids cap gun) that when you pull the string it blasts streamers out the end of a plastic bottle, after the small explosion. I have several suggestions for you. First, when the TSA Doggie sits next to you in line and looks up, that does not mean it wants to be pet. Don't touch. Please allot extra time at the airport for this. Second, if you don't fly you may get to see the inside of the "other" Naughty room in the ship. Never been to that one. Perhaps you should consider second seating on the first day. Please submit a trip report. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fouremco Posted January 28, 2018 #16 Share Posted January 28, 2018 Just to add a different perspective to this discussion, you can buy "no mess" streamers today from Amazon and party supply outlets that are spring loaded (this time, the TSA dog DOES just want to be petted!) and don't detach from the launch tube. The streamers are only about 10' long, and as the launcher and its streamers never leave your hand, you aren't throwing anything overboard. As for friends and family, it's simple to get them aboard: book them passage on the same cruise.:halo: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

neverbeenhere Posted January 28, 2018 #22 Share Posted January 28, 2018 Last organized streamers off the side of the ship, we've seen, was in 1993 or 94. Every fight I've ever seen on a ship ended with all participants "locked up" or removed for the balance of the cruise. Try something else and start a new tradition! Might I suggest, Tequila!!!

twodjs Posted January 28, 2018 #23 Share Posted January 28, 2018 Streamers that do not detach from a hand-held device would be acceptable to me. Mentioning that in your initial post (not just eco-friendly, which really means nothing) would have saved lots of irate responses. I am very passionate about our environment, and anyone who would deliberately toss streamers overboard (my perception from your post - since you wanted to relive a past memory) certainly got my attention!
