Princess UK sailings question

[Moby Jones]

Just a quick question. I've booked a Princess cruise for our extended family and a couple of them have a query. I strongly suspect the answer to be a no but thought I'd ask anyway. 

Do you have tea and coffee making facilities in your cabin onboard on Princess ships sailing from the UK? I ask as I know Celebrity X do on their sailings from Southampton but not from other ports. 

I know you can order tea and coffee from room service and get them in cafes onboard etc. :)

Not normally.

That wasn’t something available on our princess ship out of South Hampton.

i suggest bringing insulated/reusable cups from  home (if allowed post Covid) makes it easy to keep hot drinks in your cabin.

They have done before on the Sapphire Princess, 2019.

I think it the ship is based out of Southampton there is a good chance there will be tea /coffee / kettle in the cabin, but hopefully there they will do it again but it's anybody's guess at the moment.

and size of ship too, that's A LOT of kettles on the SKY/Regal...a cost that Princess could do without..

I never saw any of these items in my 3 cruises out of Southampton. Crown, Caribbean & Sapphire Princess over last 8 years

They did have them on the Sapphire Transatlantic in 2019. It was lovely sailing into Manhattan at 4am with a mug of coffee on my balcony.

They had small kettles onboard Sapphire for our last 14 day med cruise.

I think kettles might just be Sapphire-specific when it comes to the ships that have operated from Southampton in the past (as shown here and from what I've read before). Post-pandemic cleanliness recommendations/regulations may also prevent the usage of kettles in rooms, but that's just my speculation. 

 

Anyways, I recall seeing your post about choosing between Sky Princess and Celebrity Silhouette for your Europe cruise and I'm thrilled to see you have chosen Princess. I wish you happy planning and hope you have an amazing cruise with the family!

On our June 2019 cruise from Southampton to Norway on Sapphire Princess we had tea and coffee making facilities in our cabin. On our June 2017 cruise from Southampton to the Baltics on Crown Princess we did not.

I was on the Sapphire in October 2019 and there were no tea/coffee facilities in my cabin.  Ship was also sailing to Norway from Southampton.  It will be a wait and see situation once cruises start up again.  I would lean towards probably not, plan on no and if there is, be pleasantly surprised! 🙂
