Default Iron in room?

I'm cruising on Carnival Destiny later this week. Will I have an iron in room? or can one be requested for use? I'm in a Suite (cat 11), if that matters.

Irons are available in the Laundry Rooms. There will be a line for them before Cruise Elegant night. Any other time there is no wait for them at all.

Irons of any kind are NOT allowed in any passenger cabin on any cruise ship. That's one of the biggest no-no's on the prohibited list. There are irons in the passenger laundry rooms.

Nope--there will be one in the self-service laundry room that you can use whenever you like.

No irons in the cabins, they are a fire hazzard. There are irons available in the self service laundry at no charge.

Or send your stuff out to the laundry to be pressed. 1/2 the cost of cleaning. Plus, you don't have to do it!!!
