TT304 Posted August 15 #1 Share Posted August 15 Hi, We will take Celebrity Edge for Alaska vacation next month. I heard that the regular cheap power strip will not be allowed to bring to the cruise. Can we bring 6 USB ports charger onboard to our room? Thank you very much! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leaveitallbehind Posted August 15 #2 Share Posted August 15 (edited) We use a multi port charger all the time. Ours typically is a three port version but I see no reason why the one you indicate would be any different.

There are USB ports on the bedside and on the vanity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare markeb Posted August 15 #5 Share Posted August 15 Multi port USB are fine. I’d get a corded one; that’s likely to fall out of the outlet. I’d also consider a version with USB C ports for more compatibility. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What about your hotel on the way? It’s not likely to fit in one of those lamp sockets in the hotel. I find the corded version more versatile.

With due respect... you have your guidance reversed... You cannot bring a power strip on a cruise because the built-in surge protector is a fire risk.

It used to state you cannot bring even a non-surge extension cord, not sure if that's been updated. However, this is the one rule I violate on every sailing, as I bring a non-surge extension cord and it has never been confirmed. Pro tip, put it in your luggage that goes to the porter. The stateroom attendant usually tapes it to the carpet for us Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
