jashultz Posted August 6, 2009 #1 Share Posted August 6, 2009 My parents have a mini-suite booked on the Island Princess in Alaska next week. My father uses a "sleep machine" for his sleep apnea and I'm wondering if he needs to pack an extension cord to have it next to the bed. And if so, what's your rough estimate on how long it should be. Any other tips appreciated, we are first timers and have learned sooo much from these boards. Thanks!

PennyAgain Posted August 6, 2009 #2 Share Posted August 6, 2009 Yes, extention cord and some electrical tape to hold things in place. At least 10 ft. Longer if he has room in his suitcase. Also suggest that he take along a non-skid pad for under the unit. A pad like you can buy for stuff in kitchen drawers. Cheap item and very handy. The Disabled Cruise Travel topic on CC has a lot of ideas and suggestions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Meiying Posted August 6, 2009 #3 Share Posted August 6, 2009 We just got off the Island Princess. We were in a mini-suite (D606) and had the beds configured as a queen bed. There was an outlet with 2 plugs right next to the bed on the side of the bed that was closest to the desk. My phone cable is pretty short and I was able to plug my phone in there and have it right next to me on the nightstand. It should work but if he has the room in his suitcase, I would say it is better to take one to be on the safe side. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cbowler Posted August 8, 2009 #4 Share Posted August 8, 2009 Meiying said it exactly right! You just have the length of the desk and the nightstand to get from the outlet to the bed. Probably not more than 4-5 feet. Our cell phone cords reached no problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
