Kay.redmann Posted April 28, 2023 #1 Share Posted April 28, 2023 I am thinking about packing on my B2B Alaska cruise next month. Does anyone have the price list for sending out laundry? I have often done laundry on the shop but I wonder how much am I actually saving…. I booked the cruise as a 14 day so I also wonder how fast it comes back and will it be a problem towards the end of the first leg? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chubbypiggy Posted April 29, 2023 #2 Share Posted April 29, 2023 I am currently on Majestic Princess and just took the picture of laundry prices. All ships have the same price. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike45LC Posted April 29, 2023 #3 Share Posted April 29, 2023 I’ll pay the $3 wash, $3 dry and $? To buy detergent on my upcoming 16 day Hawaii trip. Just to wash underclothes, polos and T-shirts and swim trunks. Even though it is free to send out laundry for elites, I’ll do self-serve. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skynight Posted April 29, 2023 #4 Share Posted April 29, 2023 Laundry is normally slower closer to turn around day. The laundry has massive amounts of linins, robes, towels and such to prepare for the the next group of passengers. If you are paying for laundry turn around is same day or next day service depending on what you request. If you provide the cabin steward laundry say on early Thursday morning and request next day service you should be able to have it returned on Friday afternoon. My recollection was that the self service laundries were busy shortly after boarding with passengers that were on the land tours. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

skynight Posted May 1, 2023 #6 Share Posted May 1, 2023 Cleaning is chemical free and without water. Something like the dry cleaning sheets you can purchase for your home. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On here Elites have reported being able to get free laundry tokens at Guest Services if they tell them they prefer to do their own laundry. Not sure if this is consistent fleetwide but personally I'd like to know because I turn Elite after my next cruise, and I'm selective about what I send out to be boiled and baked. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We’re currently on the Sapphire and long been curious about whether Elites get free tokens. Just went and asked and we do 🙂 I like to wash underwear in the self service laundry but in the past whenever we’ve sent out t shirts, shirts, shorts etc Princess have done a great job. Definitely not boiled and baked. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Rick&Jeannie Posted May 6, 2023 #9 Share Posted May 6, 2023 We depend on the ship service *heavily* so that we do not have to pack everything we own! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SleepyBunny Posted May 7, 2023 #10 Share Posted May 7, 2023 To further help with this question: laundry machine has normal and delicate cycles. The normal one ran for about 35 minutes and the dryer went did about 45 minutes and got things like my jeans done during the alloted time. I packed the "Tru Earth" laundry soap sheets and they worked a charm! Photos for your enjoyment! Lots of machines. This area is doubled in each room. Handwash areas Machine features (old style) Machine features (other style) Token machine - medallion enabled Soap and fabric softener choices 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
janny444 Posted May 7, 2023 #11 Share Posted May 7, 2023 Is the use of the iron & board free in the self service launderette or is there a charge ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SleepyBunny Posted May 7, 2023 #12 Share Posted May 7, 2023 No cost for the irons @janny444 🙂 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I go to ask, the answer has always been the same - no free tokens.. On our last cruise had enough OBC that I did go there to buy 30 tokens. The GS officer thought that was a weird request and only charged me for 20 tokens. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We got free tokens on the Sapphire, Royal and Majestic so feeling hopeful but will bring some pods and dryer sheets in the washbag just in case.
