Kettles

[G&T Cruisers]

We are going on the Regal from Southhampton and was wondering if kettles will be in the room for tea and coffee like they have on the British lines

I’ve “heard” that the ships sailing from Southampton do have them in the rooms. If you don’t have a kettle, ask for one. I always ask no matter where we are cruising from. It seems any ship that has cruised the UK has them on board somewhere.

Yes,  you just need to ask. not set up in the cabin.

Sun Princess has kettles, so the Regal will too

We were on the Caribbean from Southampton in the summer and our Steward told us he’d already put a kettle in the statement as he knew the British loved their tea in the morning. It’s really trivial, but the only thing I would say, is that it was cups and saucers and I like a proper mug size drink in the morning so wish I’d brought some bigger mugs with us, although it was a good excuse to buy another mug from a port 😂. He put mainly tea bags out, but he asked if we’d rather have tea or coffee and asked what milk sachets we would prefer. Couldn’t fault him.

Excellent steward!! Did you pack him in your suitcase when you left the ship?

We are currently on the Regal TA from Southampton to Galveston and there are kettles and an instant coffee/tea set up in each cabin. I suspect they will be gone next cruise.

We are currently on Sky from Southampton and kettles tea and coffee were in the cabin when we boarded.

We left Southampton on Caribbean on Tuesday. There was not a kettle in our mini suite but when I asked for one, it appeared promptly. My DD says she recommends giving it a good scrub. Lol

But only if you are British or make a request.  Agree they will be gone cruising out of Galveston

Hmmmm…we are not and did not. I would actually prefer to not have it in the cabin as it is more clutter to contend with. But we’re just leaving it until it disappears on its own.

No kettle in the cabin on the Regal British Isles cruise but cabin attendant put one in at our request.

We were on Sky Princess in June 2024 and our suite did have a kettle.  Someone told me they have them for Southampton cruises.

We had one in our cabin on Sky Princess in September 2024.

Sun Princess had them upon request.
