airlink diva Posted February 11, 2020 #1 Share Posted February 11, 2020 Sailing on Equinox in August. Wasn't aware until this morning one of our party has a CPAP machine. Can we pre order distilled water to be in her cabin, wait until on board or purchased and walk on with it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bye-seaya Posted February 11, 2020 #2 Share Posted February 11, 2020 Hi - You can request distilled water in advance or after you get on board. They will also supply a long extension cord. All at no additional charge. Requests in advance can be done on-line thru Celebrity's website, by phone or thru your TA. We called Celebrity directly in advance. If the water and cord aren’t in our stateroom, we will just do a gentle request to our room steward. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cruzzzinma Posted February 11, 2020 #3 Share Posted February 11, 2020 Email special needs at special_needs@celebrity.com. if it is not there when he or she boards, just ask the stateroom attendant. They will also supply an extension cord, 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Banjo Posted February 11, 2020 #5 Share Posted February 11, 2020 If you let them know in advance a gallon of distilled water and extension cord is waiting in your cabin when you arrive. If not just mention it to the room steward, he or she will get it for you. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baron Barracuda Posted February 11, 2020 #6 Share Posted February 11, 2020 Agree with all above. Have always submitted special needs form. It's been 50/50 whether extension cord and water were actually in cabin at embarkation but quick word to cabin steward and easily rectified 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nijh Posted February 11, 2020 #7 Share Posted February 11, 2020 Unlike a certain European cruise line who initially suggest you take your own water and extension lead, even though they prohibit leads, much like airlines prohibit taking litre bottles of water from home. Then don’t have extension leads and want to charge you €10 per litre which you have to pick up yourself from their medical facility..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
liketraveling Posted February 11, 2020 #8 Share Posted February 11, 2020 Like others have said contact the special needs. Tell them you need an Extention cord and distilled water for the CPAP. I use a CPAP and Special needs got back to me and said that the Extention cord and distilled water would be in my cabin at no extra cost. I usually sail Hal and Hal charges anywhere from 2.95 to 4.95 for a gallon of distilled water. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wish I could use the smaller travel size. I have a bi-pap machine and they don’t make the travel machine in the bi-pap model. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
