Personal small fan

I keep looking and the newest thread I can find is 2011. I have always taken a small personal fan when I cruise. Has is anyone cruised within the last year on Royal Caribbean that brought one? I brought a battery operated one year and it wasn’t strong enough so that’s not an option for me. I sure hope they allow it. My husband has a CPAP machine and he radiates heat from using the machine and I get so hot I can’t sleep.

You mentioned the battery powered fan that was not strong enough. There are some that only take 2 batteries and really are pretty worthless, but look for one that takes 4 batteries - these do move quite a bit of air. I think I found mine at Bed Bath & Beyond, but Amazon probably has them also. With a battery-powered one you can put it where you want and not worry about extension cords.

I have one that works on 2 C batteries that is excellent.It is small enough to fit in my hand.

I bring a 5 inch electric desk fan with extension cord (no surge suppressor). A battery operated fan will not last for 7 nights, on all night long, and that's what I must have, due to major hot flashes while I'm sleeping. A "hand held" would mean waking up fully and that's a big NO!

 

Yes...bring it along!
