The voltage on easycruise one is 110 so you,ll need dual or multi voltage appliances.Most hairdryers can be changed with a switch or automatically adjust.Not many straighteners are dual voltage although the new GHD can be used anywhere.I know other makes such as Nick Clarke and Babyliss make multi voltage models.
Make sure that you take european 2 pin adapters as the sockets are european/continental type.Don't make the mistake,as we did,of assuming that 110v means the sockets are American!
In brief,you need dual voltage appliances and european or universal adapters.
Hope this helps.
Enjoy the cruise.

The outlets are 110v, two-prong. However, some "All in One" outlet adapters may not work because the outlets are recessed. We used our American Tourister kit which was a bunch of individual adapters. There were also a couple of American-style outlets scattered here and there in the hallways if you are desparate.
Also, I don't remember there being an outlet in the bathroom itself in our cabin, but there are several different cabin designs on board.
