Borrowing Room Steward's Vacuum?

[Jen & Kim]

I would like to pack using some space saver bags that I have but they would require a vacuum hose to re-pack. Does anyone think it would be a problem for me to borrow the steward's vacuum?:o

You might want to look into getting the kind that you just roll to get the air out. Check at Magellans.com

 

You could try with the steward but I would make arrangements a couple of days before because when you are packing that last afternoon/evening they may not be around.

Most of the vacumms are the "upright" variety--no hoses! That's the problem with using those bags--they're great for the outgoing trip, but no so hot for the return trip!

Since when are the Henry type vacuums uprights?

Our friend does that - asks the steward to use his/her vacuum cleaner for her bags. She's never had a problem.

Yeah I have never seen an upright vacuum on any of the cruises we have been on. They are always canister vacs because they are easy to maneuver in the tiny cracks and crevices of the stateroom.

Thankfully, we have seen only the "Henry" drag-along canister variety!! We have never seen any upright onboard.....

 

Ask around once on board, and you shall receive!

 

Bon Voyage~~
