back massager

[StormySeas]

I want to bring my new back massager to use on our cruise but the more I think about it, the more I am worried that it will not be allowed. it is a shiatsu massager with heat. I don't use the heat function but the massage helps my neck and lower back pain. will it be taken to the "naughty room"?

It might be, but it might not get caught. You just never know if they will see it. If it is caught you will get it back at the end of the cruise.

Truthfully, such things are really hit or miss. If it were me, I would probably risk it--worst case scenario, you're no worse off than if you had left it at home. 🙂

Sometimes you should just leave stuff at home.

And sometimes you shouldn't.  Sounds like that's what the OP is attempting to determine.

Technically, it falls into a prohibited item.

• Candles, Incense, Coffee Makers, Clothes Irons, Travel Steamers & Hot Plates. (Items that generate heat or produce an open flame. This includes heating pads, clothing irons, hotplates, candles, incense and any other item that may create a fire hazard. NOTE: The only exception to this policy are curling irons and hair straighteners. Matches and normal lighteners are allowed onboard. However ""torch lighters"" and novelty lighters that look like guns are not allowed onboard. Torch lighters emit a powerful concentrated flame, and therefore are prohibited.

I wouldn't consider that as a heating pad though.

Why ask here? Wouldn't it be better to call your TA or RCI for an answer?

Doesn't really matter what you think though.  It matters what RCI's representative thinks.  

 

Basically the choice is simple... are you willing to go through the minor hassle if you get called down to the naughty room?  Worst case, they hold the item until the end of the cruise, best case you have to lug your suitcase from the naughty room back to your cabin.

 

How important is having the item?  More than likely, you'll be able to have it on board.
