spleenstomper Posted September 2, 2022 #1 Share Posted September 2, 2022 Hi, everyone, I’m in a starboard aft veranda cabin on Westerdam and have a Cpap. About how many feet of extension cord do you think I need from the outlet to the bed? Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FOPMan Posted September 2, 2022 #2 Share Posted September 2, 2022 If you put it beside, none. There should be a plug right there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Laxer Posted September 3, 2022 #5 Share Posted September 3, 2022 It depends on the Class of ship as to where the plugs are located. On the Oosterdam (I think same class as Westerdam) the plug is at the Desk/Vanity so an extension cored is needed and needs to run across the cabin floor to the night table. Pinnacle class ships there is a plug at the night tables, no cord needed. I take a 10 ft cord with my Cpap but I'm sure an 8 ft cord would work. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WA Bubbles Posted September 3, 2022 #6 Share Posted September 3, 2022 We were in a Veranda on the Westerdam in June, there are no outlets for a CPAP machine near the bed. You need at least a 10ft extension cord or more (tripping hazard). Best is to ask your room steward for the outlet and extension cord. On a past cruise, we had a steward tape down the cord, not that lucky on our June cruise. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spleenstomper Posted September 3, 2022 Author #7 Share Posted September 3, 2022 Ok, thanks everybody. I’ll have to buy a 10 foot cord. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JCP3 Posted September 3, 2022 #8 Share Posted September 3, 2022 If you need an extension cord your steward will supply it for you and install it. They are use to dealing with this issue on ships that require it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I put a beach towel on the floor over the cord at night to help with the tripping issue. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Gail & Marty sailing away Posted September 3, 2022 #11 Share Posted September 3, 2022 Ask the ship for a cord in advance 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HELENPSL Posted September 3, 2022 #12 Share Posted September 3, 2022 We always call ship services (1-800-541-1576) and tell them we need a long extension cord to go across the room for a C-pap. Sometimes it's already in the cabin when we get there. We then get the cabin steward to run it across the floor, under the bed to the outlet. At that point, they tape the cord to the carpet so I don't kill myself. Hope this helps. Helen 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SusieKIslandGirl Posted September 3, 2022 #13 Share Posted September 3, 2022 We have often found an outlet behind the bed although you might have to give up a bedside light. You will need a European adapter plug. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
