jpd43 Posted June 5, 2021 #1 Share Posted June 5, 2021 What ever happened to roll call t-shirts? My first cruise you could get a roll call t-shirt that had the name and picture of the ship on the front and the itinerary map on the back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shipgeeks Posted June 6, 2021 #2 Share Posted June 6, 2021 Do you have a cruise coming up? Is there a roll call for it? If not, you can start a roll call, and you could suggest the t-shirts. You could even offer to have them made! However, personally, neither of us would choose to participate; we do not wear t-shirts. Perhaps others feel the same. I believe the shops on board will sell t-shirts with the ship picture and name, once you are aboard. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some shops on board do and some don't. But, it does pay "to shop". On one HAL cruise 3-4 years ago, there was a single T-shirt with a picture of Rotterdam V on its front with a nice background scene. It was even in my size! And, it was priced significantly less than the generic T-shirts that were being sold. Someone must have been cleaning a storeroom on the ship. Then, there is the T-shirt that I bought on a HAL ship that had on its front the phrase..."dam ships". I wore that shirt during a cardiac rehab session at a locally religiously affiliated hospital. When the staff saw the shirt, there were "eye brows" raised until they understood what "dam ships" was all about. The shirt listed all of the HAL ships in the fleet at that time.

I have a few cruise line t-shirts for Royal Caribbean, Celebrity, Carnival, Princess, NCL. I did have fun with my one t-shirt, it was during a cruise to Alaska and we were in the glacier areas and I was wearing my RMS Titanic t-shirt I had bought at a Titanic Exhibit. Some were asking seeing me wear it "are you trying to tell us something?", or 'Are we planning on hitting any glaciers?". 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Happy sails, Host Kat Is there any issue with creating a non-searchable Cafe Press store to distribute t-shirts? You can set the markup to zero and make a few different styles available. I do this for a choir I'm in and it works well. You can just give the URL to members of your group. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, I'm just a non-paid volunteer here. Would be best for you to send an email from your Cruise Critic email address mentioning your Cruise Critic user name to the Boss for an official okay.

norboy76 Posted November 3, 2021 #8 Share Posted November 3, 2021 I admit to wearing tshirts on my cruises, I try to wear tshirts for that line, including if the tshirt has a ship no longer in that fleet. I think the um most interesting tshirt I wore was when was in Alaska with all the Ice and Galciers around, and there's me walking around in a tshirt for the RMS Titanic. I had just grabbed tshirts at home making sure were for the line but didnt notice until got on the ship I had that in the pile lol, oops. Some passengers thought it was funny though and asked if my tshirt was a sign to watch out for icebergs. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
