Tante1231 Posted August 14, 2022 #1 Share Posted August 14, 2022 We have several cruises coming up - one on Nieuw Amsterdam, Oosterdam and Volendam. Are the in room safes large enough for us to lock up our laptop? My Ipad should fit in the safe but we may need to bring the lap top as well. Thanks in advance.

crystalspin Posted August 14, 2022 #2 Share Posted August 14, 2022 Probably not. Just put it in a drawer. Or leave it on the desk. The stewards are not interested in your computer! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare VMax1700 Posted August 14, 2022 #3 Share Posted August 14, 2022 My Dell 15" would not fit into the safe. I just put it into a drawer so that it would be out of sight and tidy! I agree with @crystalspin, the stewards on not interested in it. They do not want to risk losing their livelihood over a missing laptop, and they probably have a better one themselves. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare ski ww Posted August 14, 2022 #4 Share Posted August 14, 2022 I agree I leave mine on the desk along with my camera, have never had a problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
donh1 Posted August 14, 2022 #5 Share Posted August 14, 2022 I never worry about things left in my cabin. The cruise line has near complete control over their employees and for one of them to steal a large item such as a laptop is ridiculous. Cash, a watch or piece of jewelry would be tempting but definitely not a computer. They would be fired and flown home at their expense at the first opportunity….

mjdenn Posted August 14, 2022 #6 Share Posted August 14, 2022 If your unconfutable see if you can use a computer lock. There are plenty of photos and videos on youtube. But I agree with the others just put it in a draw. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Mary229 Posted August 14, 2022 #7 Share Posted August 14, 2022 If you have proprietary or classified information on that computer I would suggest you not bring it. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Essiesmom Posted August 14, 2022 #8 Share Posted August 14, 2022 Lock it in your empty suitcase under the bed. EM 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MAVIP Posted August 14, 2022 #10 Share Posted August 14, 2022 Good advise! and I seriously hope someone with classified information on a laptop or other advise knows better than to bring it on a holiday (crossing borders etc). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There was one famous breach when an employee took his laptop on a cruise ship. I will have to research it to recall the incident. Most of the large US federal government data breaches were instigated by accessing employee computers not by hacking the central computers Edited August 14, 2022 by Mary229 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SilvertoGold Posted August 14, 2022 #14 Share Posted August 14, 2022 Agree that the cabin stewards aren't interested.
