Rare ORV Posted December 16, 2023 #26 Share Posted December 16, 2023 Maybe it's the lighting, but mine appears to be a much brighter blue. If it has a zipper and a divider in the middle then I do think that is the older one. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's so sturdy...I think I got them on the world cruise. Edited December 16, 2023 by Go-Bucks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MEFIowa Posted December 17, 2023 #30 Share Posted December 17, 2023 (edited) The OLD bag is much more useful than the new bag. You can really put different things in it and zip it up. We got ours on Riviera 12/2021 and used it on Sirena 11/2022 and again on Riviera 11/2023. We'll be using it again on Sirena 9/2024. The new bag just doesn't have the utility. Good for carrying laundry in it or things to the beach. Edited December 17, 2023 by MEFIowa Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wynterwynd Posted December 20, 2023 #31 Share Posted December 20, 2023 On 12/4/2023 at 10:39 AM, MEFIowa said: Of course, some of us are in G-A cabins, without any butler. We were A3 and B3. And we may prefer to do our own laundry knowing how we want our clothes done. (I find it relaxing on a sea day.) We spent 3 nights in Venice before the cruise and 3 nights in Barcelona after the cruise, so we needed to do laundry early in the 1st cruise and near the end of the 2nd. “I find it relaxing on a sea day.” Isn’t that the truth! I am not fond of doing laundry at home but for some reason, on a cruise, it’s kind of fun! And you get to meet folks in the laundry room! Our first cruise on one of the larger ships was this past summer (Marina) and I was delighted to see multiple laundry rooms (one on each of 4 or 5 decks). OTOH, if you find one open washer on one floor and another on a different floor, you need to remember where your laundry is, lol! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We can take them home - no charge? (Unlike the cashmere lap blankets that are meant to be used and stay on board?)

Yes, bags are yours to take and cashmere blankets are to be left in your stateroom. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I doubt the focus on this thread are from Bronze or higher O Club Members already. They likely haven't even sailed once. Or maybe only in a G-B cabin.

MEFIowa Posted April 6 #38 Share Posted April 6 So, we received one of the older more useful stronger bags on Riviera in our A4 12/2021 and the newer less useful bag on Riviera 10/2023. One of each. Get a bag when you go A or higher. And we were Blue level, O Club. We go Bronze on our upcoming B2B on Sirena Aug-Sept. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IMHO, it's much better than the old blue bag. The old bag had a zipper all the way across the top. I felt it was safer. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
