mcrcruiser Posted January 12, 2023 #1 Share Posted January 12, 2023 We will be sailing this vessel in 2024 for the Eclipse /Mexican riviera cruise ,14 night ,Being a older ship where are the electric outlets & how many are there? We do bring a extra electric box that is approved for cruise ship use that has both UBS connections & electric out let connections ;however ,in a handicap cabin we need a primary for the electric scooter . hopefully some one here knows this info ?

Navybikermom Posted January 12, 2023 #2 Share Posted January 12, 2023 I’m in an ocean view on deck 3 and here are the outlets. Two on the desk (one US and one UK), a power strip behind the TV with UK-style outlets, and one in the bathroom in the old hair dryer that says “shavers only”. I still have an old TV but the installers are currently working their way down the decks. Deck 6 is getting theirs at this time, so we should be next!

mcrcruiser Posted January 12, 2023 Author #3 Share Posted January 12, 2023 Thank you so much . Wow that is not very good for USA electric outlets . We mat need to get the ship to add a US power strip with more USA outlets . Wonder what people might need if they have electric razors , need to recharge their computers ,electric dryers ie ? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mcrcruiser Posted January 12, 2023 Author #4 Share Posted January 12, 2023 PS I have a transformer & perhaps a UK electric plug in my plug assortments we can bring along .That would solve a additional outlet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mosaic Posted January 12, 2023 #5 Share Posted January 12, 2023 Keep in mind that those round electrical connections are 220 volt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare richwmn Posted January 12, 2023 #6 Share Posted January 12, 2023 In general, when the tv is removed you will find the same outlet configuration as was shown in the first picture of post #2 where the TV was plugged in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They only did the Neptune suites up here .We asked why they never finished, they said they moved to 6 because some of the cabins there never had the frames installed. At the speed they’re moving…who knows if they’ll finish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My partner uses a CPAP and I'm sure he's not the only one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UK outlets are very different but both UK and Euro are 220V This is UK style, generally seen among Americans only on Cunard: Roy Edited January 12, 2023 by rafinmd Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry to hear that. 🙁 We are to be in one of the 2 ocean view cabins on Deck 7 for the next cruise and I had my fingers crossed the TV would have been replaced by the time we sail. Any idea if the new TV’s are interactive? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Torquer Posted January 12, 2023 #11 Share Posted January 12, 2023 3 hours ago, Mosaic said: Keep in mind that those round electrical connections are 220 volt. That is correct that the round European outlets are 220 to 240 volt. However, every single electric item we travel with works on both 120 and 240 volts: cell phone chargers, laptop charger, electric shaver, and charger for our camera batteries. Converters from these European to US outlets only cost a couple dollars and then you can plug your items into them. So it effectively becomes a "normal" US outlet. Obviously, you want to carefully check your electrical item to confirm they are dual voltage capable. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No outlets by the bed; they're on the desk, so a slight distance away. For CPAP users, I believe HAL can supply power strips/extension cords for this purpose if asked; I'd recommend reaching out directly to HAL's accessibility department. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Infi Posted January 12, 2023 #13 Share Posted January 12, 2023 We used this on our last cruise on Zaandam and it was a lifesaver: https://smile.amazon.com/dp/B07V32PJ59?psc=1&ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_product_details Not only were there extra outlets, we could also charge USB-A and C devices like phones, Kindles, and portable chargers. It had a slight extension cord as well so everything wasn't bunched up on the desk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They said Sunday or Monday we might be able to use it. it is supposed to be interactive. Here’s a picture, we’re in a vista suite. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
