Crossing my i's and dotting my t's - ready to sail last minute questions

[Cruzmama]

Leaving on the Veendam next week.  I have my boarding pass, passport, credit card and drivers license.  Is that all the documentation l need to check in?  We have an oceanview and I believe I read that there is only one outlet (besides bathroom).  I know we can't bring on a surge protector, so what is the best thing to bring on?

We’re also on the Veendam next week. I either ask the cabin steward or the Front Desk for an extension cord. (That’s what they call the power bars)

looking forward to meet you.  We are Barbara and David from Newmarket Ontario

We have a small strip the on the box states it is not surge protected.   It goes in the suitcase in the original box.  Think it has 3 plug ‘spots’.

You are correct, it can’t be surge protected.

Check on eBay or Amazon for a 'cruise ship power strip'---- can't find mine right now but it has Cruise Ship in the title & it's not surge protected.

If you're in a pinch for time, just go to hardware store (even some drug/grocery store) and get a slim 3-outlet lightweight extension cord. Not a strip at all. It won't be surge-protected and will provide enough power to charge electronics (which are mostly low demand trickle-charge). If you have a CPAP/oxy machine that might require more power, go with the ship's extension cord/splitter.
