No Ironing Allowed

[MickeyG]

Just received our travel docs. In reading them I noticed that irons are not permitted in cabins due to fire hazzards. I never really thought about this but it makes perfect sense. With no ironing allowed, just wondering what people do to keep clothes from getting wrinkled? My wife is a good packer and usually irons everything before she packs it. But there is always a shirt or two that can use a touch up. Any suggestions?

 

 

Thanks

on Princess there are irons in the laundry rooms, so if you really need to...

Downy wrinkle release or a steamy shower plus the bags seem to work for all but the worst wrinkles.

Happy cruising!

Does anyone know if irons are allowed on NCL's Majesty?

On the "R" and "S" class ships on HAL, there are laundry rooms which have ironing boards and irons. The Vista class ships do not have these facilaties.

Some people take steamers.

Others just hang their wrinkled clothes in the bathroom while someone is taking a shower and let that steam help.

Thanks for your quick answers. If we find a wrinkled shirt we'll take a long, hot shower.

 

Thanks, again.

I always pack a small travel steamer and do my husband's shirts (especially his tuxedo shirts) with it. It's portable and safe - unlike irons.

 

Smooth Sailing! :) :) :)

Irons are generally frowned upon on all ships due to fire hazards.

 

There are other discussions of irons on this board, use the search function and you'll be overwhelmed with info!

Unfortunately, a lot of people still bring their irons along with them, and justify it with the "I'm very careful" reply.

I'm sure speeders are very careful when they drive 80 mph on the highway, too.:rolleyes:

Apparently I am the only "slob" in the group. I presume everyone on board is aware that my clothing has been folded/rolled/crammed into a suitcase and is therefore prone to wrinkles. Doesn't bother me if YOUR clothes have wrinkles either! ;)

I do not iron anything before I go because I can't seem to pack so things look decent when I arrive. As soon as my luggage arrives I send everything to the ship's laundry to be pressed. Everything comes back the next day looking great.

Marsha - I am so glad to see that I am not the only "slob" out there. I don't iron so I don't buy clothes that need to be ironed. I pack very carefully in the extra large ziplock bags and everything comes out just fine! The last thing I want to do on vacation is worry about laundry!

I too take advantage of the laundrys pressing service when needed
