firefly333 Posted August 4, 2009 #3 Share Posted August 4, 2009 If a iron is considered a non allowed item, because it doesnt have a automatic shut off, Id say a hot plate isnt allowed either, someone should have the FAQs? I do think in Europe they allow some kind of hot tea makers in the cabins, but they are probably specially made. I dont know it as a fact, but Im 98% sure it would be a item they would confiscate if they found it, fire hazard. ... does your friends have a automatic shut off, not one you do yourself, in case its left on?

Rare nunuc2000 Posted August 4, 2009 #4 Share Posted August 4, 2009 Hey Cruisers My question is about bring a Hot Plate or warming plate to use in room? Question is for a friend Definitely not. Wayyyy too much of a fire hazard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Melismass Posted August 4, 2009 #5 Share Posted August 4, 2009 I can't even imagine a use for a hot plate. Does your friend know that there is 24 hour room services? (Free!) How about the free buffet? And the free seated dinner every night? Ok, please tell me what you might use this for! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bonnys Posted August 5, 2009 #11 Share Posted August 5, 2009 I cruise to get away from cooking and household duties. I can't begin to imagine wanting to take a cooking appliance with me.:eek: Now a Magic Bullet for mixed drinks is a totally different story....:p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YFancyface Posted August 5, 2009 #12 Share Posted August 5, 2009 Ummm... what is a hot plate? An iron or a microwave? Is this a common word in a certain part of the country or have I just been living in a box for 30 years? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LemurCat Posted August 5, 2009 #13 Share Posted August 5, 2009 Perhaps a Foreman grill? Do they prefer to wake up to the smell of sizzling bacon? Has your friend ever grilled their own foot? Is your friend perhaps Michael Scott? Or has your friend heard about the half-raw bacon and bacon police at the Lido buffet? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cruising Photographer Posted August 5, 2009 #14 Share Posted August 5, 2009 NO, NO, Not allowed, and for good reason. FIRE DANGER!!! gogle photos of the Star Princess fire and ask if you would want to be responsible for that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dan40 Posted August 5, 2009 #16 Share Posted August 5, 2009 Why not bring 2, 3 duffle bags full of fire bricks and build a charcoal grille on the balcony?? At least a Hibachi. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whimsy Posted August 5, 2009 #17 Share Posted August 5, 2009 I'll bring a hot plate and start cooking on vacation the same time my DH brings the hedge trimmers and takes care of the landscaping where we travel! NOT!!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
notme1955 Posted August 5, 2009 #18 Share Posted August 5, 2009 I am honestly curious--why would one need a hot plate on a cruise? I've been wracking my brain trying to discover a reason, but can't come up with anything. Would you mind shedding some light on this, please?

I think my friend wants to bring his Hooka and, he said you have to warm something up. I don't know what, I have never used one and don't even know if he can bring it on. He leaves on the 13th so we will see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
salty dingo Posted August 5, 2009 #20 Share Posted August 5, 2009 What could you possibly want to warm up in your room? Everything you need is already there for you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know what, I have never used one and don't even know if he can bring it on. He leaves on the 13th so we will see. I think you can warm up a hooka with a bic lighter or a mini torch. A hot plate would be way to many BTU'sfor a hooka. Looks like someone has booked a stop in Jamica or Amsterdam. :):):) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A hot plate did not start that fire. A cigarette did and as far as I know, they are still allowed on board. But I do agree, a hot plate is not needed and should not be brought onboard.
