Rickey Posted February 4, 2022 Report Posted February 4, 2022 Can my wife take a clothing steamer on the ship? Quote
PG Cruiser Posted February 4, 2022 Report Posted February 4, 2022 Steamers are not allowed. I do my “ironing” onboard with this hair wand (which is allowed) Quote
Terri Smith Johnson Posted February 4, 2022 Report Posted February 4, 2022 How in the heck will I iron my clothes? Even my husband's suit and shirt will require a touch up!! I don't just "live in knits"!! HELP!! I don't own a hair wand...Straightener, yes.... I see others use flat iron... or steam for shower. This will def change the things we pack. Oh, well Quote

Don't worry Royal Caribbean will charge you for that! https://www.royalcaribbean.com/content/dam/royal/resources/pdf/laundry-service-price-list.pdf Or you could just go wrinkled, which is my preferred method.

CruisingNewb Posted February 4, 2022 Report Posted February 4, 2022 I am seeing alot of YouTube videos recommending Downey Wrinkle Releaser. We will be buying some and trying it out before taking on our cruise. Another suggestion is hanging the items in the bathroom while taking a hot shower. Works sometimes. My personal suggestion is if your room has a kettle, and the clothing item has minor wrinkles, hover the wrinkled area over the kettle and allow the steam to release the wrinkle. Just be extra careful not to burn yourself. Terri Smith Johnson 1 Quote
Pooch Posted February 4, 2022 Report Posted February 4, 2022 Downey wrinkle release! Spray & smooth. Then I hang the item in the bathroom while I shower. Anything that needs more attention than that can just stay home! And no I don’t live in knits. WAAAYTOOO, Terri Smith Johnson, CruisingNewb and 1 other 1 3 Quote

I've used a hair straightener before but I found the wand to be more user-friendly. Since I cruise often, I got one for my cruising "survival kit" from Walmart for $20. Terri Smith Johnson 1 Quote
PG Cruiser Posted February 4, 2022 Report Posted February 4, 2022 I also pack my ironed “nice” clothes in a garment bag to minimized wrinkling. I carry this bag on with me. It’s a choice between convenience and wearing wrinkle-free clothes. Quote

Pooch Posted February 4, 2022 Report Posted February 4, 2022 Lots of packing tips to minimize wrinkles. For hubby’s button down shirts, I iron them about a week prior to packing, then lay them one on top of the other (with the sturdiest last) then fold sleeves in and one fold across the middle so they are all folded together. Then into a dry cleaning bag & in the suitcase. Quote
