Rare uktog Posted July 9, 2019 #1 Share Posted July 9, 2019 I try and avoid thinking about domestic chores, but does the American Queen have a self service laundry onboard. We will be holidaying for another two weeks after our cruise hopping from hotel to hotel so laundry logistics do kick in. If it does, what’s the cost, how busy and how well equipped is it.

califsealion Posted July 11, 2019 #2 Share Posted July 11, 2019 I don't totally know the answer to your question as I've only been on the Empress and the Duchess which don't have laundry facilities. I looked at the deck plan of the American Queen and did see there is a little tiny room labelled laundry, I believe it was on deck 4. I'm hoping someone else has more information for you!

Rare uktog Posted July 11, 2019 Author #3 Share Posted July 11, 2019 Great thanks that helps I just need to know is it a guest laundry and what’s the score re powder or capsules I can easily bring a few if needed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lady Meer Posted July 11, 2019 #4 Share Posted July 11, 2019 Yes, there is a guest laundry. I didn’t use it but am sure it’s free. Sorry, don’t know about the soap but we think it was included. I don’t know if you’ve been on the AQSC website, but there’s an Essential Travel Guide (under the heading Your Voyage) you can download which has some useful information. We had a great time - I hope you do too. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LDVinNC Posted July 16, 2019 #7 Share Posted July 16, 2019 Yes, the laundry is free but there are only 2 washers and dryers. They do offer a service at $20 for a bag; it is nicely done and folded upon return. You can get a LOT in the bag they provide. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LDVinNC Posted July 17, 2019 #9 Share Posted July 17, 2019 Forgot to mention that every time we sent the laundry out, it was back later the same day. We sent it out 3 times as it was a 3 week trip. Much more pleasant than running back and forth to see if a machine was free, to switch the laundry over to the dryer, etc. Worth $20 to me! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare uktog Posted July 17, 2019 Author #10 Share Posted July 17, 2019 If it is that price or near it when we are onboard that is certainly the way we will go. Time is precious on special holidays Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is that service provided on every cruise or just the Mighty Mississippi ones? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LDVinNC Posted July 17, 2019 #12 Share Posted July 17, 2019 To the best of my knowledge, it is offered on all trips. But you might want to check with AQSC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carollouise Posted July 17, 2019 #13 Share Posted July 17, 2019 We are going on the American Queen Duchess from New Orleans to Memphis. I have been trying to find out online if there is laundry on it. Have not made a call to the company yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You just made my wife very happy. Who wants to do laundry while on vacation? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There isn't a laundry room on the Duchess, but I can't remember if you can send your laundry out for them to do or not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
