zippyjet Posted May 21, 2022 #1 Share Posted May 21, 2022 I just submitted a review for my Freedom of The Seas cruise. And, I have to say the toilet paper doubles as heavy-duty marine sandpaper. So, now you know you won't be surprised at the sandpaper shortages at your home improvement center. Carnival also uses sandpaper quality toilet paper. So, please be advised. If your crack back there (dark side of the moon) is sensitive bring hemorrhoid goo or another relief cream. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MommaBear55 Posted May 21, 2022 #2 Share Posted May 21, 2022 It's true, it's not soft fluffy double ply. It's marine grade TP for marine toilets. If that's your biggest complaint, your cruise must have been amazing. You can always bring personal wipes, just don't flush them. 3 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare orville99 Posted May 21, 2022 #4 Share Posted May 21, 2022 Definitely not the same softness as at home. It wears on you a bit😵 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jimbo Posted May 21, 2022 #6 Share Posted May 21, 2022 (edited) That alone would keep me from ever doing a World Tour Cruise..............Can you imagine what the people will walk like when getting off the ship on the final day? Most will have to be carried off. 😲 Edited May 21, 2022 by Jimbo 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GWP-OKC Posted May 21, 2022 #13 Share Posted May 21, 2022 Sandpaper is an improvement. I think the old supplier was the same company that makes the first grade Big Chief writing tablets. Remember those- still had chunks of wood in them. At least with the current supplier you don't get splinters!! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HicksRA Posted May 21, 2022 #16 Share Posted May 21, 2022 (edited) Toilet paper?? Isn’t that what those little square wash rags next to the sink are for?? 😆 Maybe that’s why I get those dirty looks from the steward….

Rare Oceansaway17 Posted May 21, 2022 #19 Share Posted May 21, 2022 gee until I saw this posts I did not even notice what type of toilet paper it was. Guess a lot of places in USA stores use the same type or not fluffy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Compared to what was available locally back then, today's ship🧻 paper is like silk. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FamilyCruiserUK Posted May 21, 2022 #22 Share Posted May 21, 2022 A lot of it depends on how easy the toilet paper is to flush, esp when people use handfulls of the stuff. After all the toilet system on a ship, like an airline can only handle the correct type of toilet paper which i assume the cruise companies use, obviously the cheapest version. Speaking of toilets i find the american toilet bowls huge, like dropping a stone in a lake!!! ) Lol 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

grandgeezer Posted May 21, 2022 #24 Share Posted May 21, 2022 Keep an eye out for a toilet paper package soon. The premium package will probably include Charmin no package would probably use Sharmin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
