bryanmp729 Posted June 15, 2016 Report Share Posted June 15, 2016 Galveston port primarily. Has anyone ever seen someone carry a box fan through security. I have a friend that can't live without a fan and just wondered if he can bring his own in case the stewards can't find him one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jticarruthers Posted June 15, 2016 Report Share Posted June 15, 2016 Not sure what size fan we are talking, we have a desk fan (probably 9-10 " tall) that we put through in our suitcase every cruise, never had an issue. If you are talking a 2 foot tall full size fan that might be a different animal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
L454S Posted June 15, 2016 Report Share Posted June 15, 2016 We bring one of these on all cruises. It's $13.99 at Walmart. We found our cabin stewards were VERY interested in these fans for their cabins. We pack them in our checked luggage and have never had anything questioned. After the cruise we give them to the cabin steward, they are very thankful. Get a fresh one for the next trip.

Jerel Posted June 15, 2016 Report Share Posted June 15, 2016 My wife takes the same Honeywell fan as above. If it's just the noise of the fan your friend needs than that will do nicely. OR your friend could have a few extra night caps, that'll do the trick. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rich T Posted June 16, 2016 Report Share Posted June 16, 2016 We always bring two 6" USB fans for each side of the bed :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Michael Vitale Posted June 17, 2016 Report Share Posted June 17, 2016 What a fabulous idea ! The a/c is never enough for me, even on the highest setting. I will also offer it to the attendant. This blog has become indispensable for ideas and info. dejagatkins and FloatMe 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest toodle68 Posted June 22, 2016 Report Share Posted June 22, 2016 Something to consider is the reason for the fan.. is it for air or noise? My wife used a fan for noise and I replaced it with a small noise device. It so much easier to cart around. You can also get apps on your phone.

L454S Posted June 22, 2016 Report Share Posted June 22, 2016 In our case it is for the AIR......Seldom can we get the cabin cool enough for us. The fan is great for sleeping, at home we have the ceiling fan on high overnight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
