Are the medallions waterproof

[Porsche Girl]

Just wondering how folks go in the pools and spas with the medallions.  Are they waterproof?  Can you keep it in your pocket or does it have to be visible when drinks are delivered?

Thanks!

I've gotten mine wet while washing my hands and haven't had a problem but I don't know about submerging it in the pool.  I'm guessing it'd be okay or they'd warn you about it.  IME, they have tapped or waved over my Medallion when delivering stuff.

Had it my pocket when I went in the pool and had no problem afterwards.

Good question.

 

They do not need to see your Medallion to find you:  The ship steers them to near your Medallion, and shows them your photo on their tablet.

 

You may need to take the Medallion out of your pocket to pay.  In the shops, you "tap" your Medallion on a point-of-sale sensor, but I dunno what the bars or runners need.

In August bar waiters in Crooners had difficulty determining who we were when we ordered a drink. They had to take our medallion or they asked for our cabin number.

Yes, they are sealed.
