Outlet in standard balcony room on Getaway

[sheshe01]

I know there are outlets at the desk but are there any near the beds or in other locations?

I have a cruise booked on this ship.  All of my looking & research indicates that BALCONY cabins do NOT have any outlets near the beds.  I purchased a long (withOUT surge protector) extension cord so I can use my CPAP.

Been on Getaway several times. Only outlet is on the shelf/counter area in main cabin. No USB ports/outlets near bed to charge things overnight. An item that hopefully gets addressed during a dry dock.

I read somewhere that there’s an outlet behind the bed where the lamp plugs in. Does this sound like a possibility?

I’m unfamiliar with that outlet. I don’t recall a lamp that requires a cord and an outlet anywhere in the cabin. If others have a different recollection I will defer to them.

guess can get a long usb cable for charger.

No 110/220V outlets by bed.  Lamps are on wall, and in the last dry dock SOME lamps in balcony cabins have been changed out and new ones have USB A and C outlets on them. They are up high so you need a long 6' cord to reach the stand and you.  Not all cabins have them yet, unclear which ones do or do not.

No. Does not exist.

It is there and true for the 2 of the newest NCL ships in the fleet currently, the Prima and Viva and NOT available behind the bed/wall near the main bed.  The rest of the NCL ships, including the Breakaway, Getaway, Escape and Joy in particular have none.   Bedside lamps are wall-mounted and newer ships have integrated USB-C and USB-A outlet, rated at 1.5A only, some of the older ship's balcony & oceanview cabins also had "some" of the wall lamps updated with the USB outlet.  

 

CAUTION: for the Prima/Viva - the desk lamp is connected to a 220 volt outlet (Euro 2 round-pins) and an adapter might be necessary if a dual voltage, auto-switching charging device being connected to use comes with a standard USA 3 prone, polarized plug.  Refer to photo below - Prima & Viva only: 

 

 

However, if you look closely, there is also a 110V outlet next to the light switch, it might be hidden by the pillows but do look for them on the Prima/Viva.  I'm 90% sure it wasn't there on our first Viva cruise last November in a different balcony stateroom, but it was there ... no need to unplug the desk lamp/move the night stand.  

 

When in doubt, contact Guest Services, Access Desk officers onboard and/or housekeeping to get a qualified crew to help safely and properly connect the device.
