Was behind a Indian Large family held up by security , there was a heated exchange about how his wife will not be able to iron her Sarie's and how could she be seen in public after they were trying to take away there iron ...if you thought that was funny security also confiscated a rice cooker 🤣🤣🤣

One cruise we saw a hibachi grill, a slow cooker,  and a toaster oven..
It really makes me wonder about some people!

I would not classify this as an extension cord.  This is not much different than the magsafe plug for the older macbooks.

If you were a security screener, you would not consider a plug, 6’ cord and head with multiple outlets an extension cord?  Seriously???

 What no microwave? Even back in the day of set seating and limited food offers (no buffets except at midnight) You could alway find something to eat. If you have to walk to the buffet for a bagel or bread just have it toasted there.

Actually I have been carrying something similar to this cord; plus I have carried an extension cord too.  Security has never taken them from me;  so on my next cruise I will be taking my new usb hub.  I understand what you're saying;  but with everyone plugged in today with their phones, camera, ipads, kindles, laptops, etc;  the cruise lines do not provide enough outlets in cabins.  Yes I know some people go on vacation to unplug;  but others want all their tech stuff with them.

Just Luck, my last few Cruises looks like were grabbing ext cords inc any with reg plugs like this. Didn't matter if has surge or not. USB only has better chance getting through. At least newer ships have more plugs, but they are never going put more then a couple with another USB
