I've heard that there are both American and European sockets in Dream cabins can anyone who has sailed please confirm.
Also are there tea/coffee making facilties? Or do I need to take a travel kettle?

Hi,

There are indeed both an American & a European socket, however there are no tea & coffee making facilities & travel kettles are not permitted in the cabins, neither are irons - apparently they are both a fire risk! Can't understand though why on P&O both are provided?? Perhaps Thomson ships are more likely to catch fire :rolleyes:

As jojo says,no tea/coffee making facilities in the cabin.Tea/Coffee is readily available from the machine in the 24 hr buffet but be warned,its awful.Nice coffee served from the bar and if your AI its free

Many thanks to JoJo and Jim the Scot for their replies.
I find it hard to understand the rules for this on the Dream - as you say OV and P & O don't have a problem - unfortunately I can't remember whether they were available on the Spirit or Celebration - so long ago!!

What about on the Destiny going from the Dom Rep? Is there tea/coffee making, is there a hairdryer, and can you consume your own duty free drinks in your cabin (only Baileys and Whisky and any bought shoreside in aport)Also which plug adaptors do you need?

no tea/coffee making in your cabin but they are available from the buffet, take a travel mug if you like your morning cuppa. The unnamed tea bags are PG tips so no danger of the dreaded Liptons yellow label. I believe you can drink your duty frees in your cabin and just ask the steward to fill the ice bucket. There is a hairdryer in the cabin. The electrical trickery is american style 110V ac, both round and flat plugs. I bought a cheap adaptor at Tescos that does the whole world.
