You'll need to try it and let us know if it actually works and they do deliver. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare moposh Posted October 27, 2022 #7 Share Posted October 27, 2022 They had that option when I was on Enchantment in August. I didn't try it as I already had towels. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mum2Mercury Posted October 27, 2022 #9 Share Posted October 27, 2022 Seems like useless work for the crew. I get two towels on the first day, and I never turn them in -- until the end of the cruise, obviously. I just "exchange" for fresh towels and take them back to my room. This means I always have fresh towels first thing in the morning or late at night. Fewer times in and out of the system = fewer opportunities for mistakes. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clskinsfan Posted October 27, 2022 #10 Share Posted October 27, 2022 Hmmm. Every morning when I get up there are hundreds of towels laying on chairs ready for me to take. 🙂 4 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I spot a chair hog nest on the way to breakfast and if it's still there an hour later, it's mine. Sometimes the free towels even come with complimentary reading materials.😁 1 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Preziosa Posted October 27, 2022 #17 Share Posted October 27, 2022 We had it on Brilliance in September. We Got the advice from Our tourguide not to use it. Use the old system with your cruisecard on the sundeck when you Want a towel. Too many mistakes in the new system. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're simply having to carry towels for a longer distance. And there's always a checkout station by the gangway. Oh, and for those celebrating free towels and towel clips. As much as I'm on your side when it comes to chair hogging, I do have to point out the hundreds of small cameras all over the ship. That's before we discuss contagious skin conditions...

Rare little britain Posted October 28, 2022 Author #22 Share Posted October 28, 2022 Following morning: no towel delivery yet. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare perfect match Posted October 28, 2022 #23 Share Posted October 28, 2022 We tried this on Harmony and only got half the towels we ordered for one of our excursions. We ended up going up to the pool deck anyway to get the towels we needed. Good thing we did because there were no towels available at the gangway available for check out. We did order our towels using ship’s WiFi, made sure all of our towels were scanned back in, so no charges for pool towels to our account. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
