Ordering ice

I know on some cruise lines you can order ice from room service. Can you do that on celebrity? Thinking for one of our beach days to keep water cold.

Absolutely

We just give our cooler to the room steward and he fills it up

We always order ice on a daily basis.

Thanks! I normally don't but we were going to bring water to horseshoe so I thought I would for my soft cooler bag.

Just as an FYI.... you can get cold bottles of water at Horseshoe either at their little store and another stand just to the right of the chair rentals. They were not cheap but not ridiculous either compared to other places. They were the larger liter bottles. Just in case you decide you do not want to lug stuff with you.

Make sure you specify tap water. Otherwise, they might freeze up some seawater for you.

(Which might actually be a good thing if you want to keep a bottle of bubbly cold in an ice bucket.):p

The ship will NEVER give you frozen sea water.

Au contraire, it is a very common thing to use sea water for the ice in ice buckets, medical ice bags, or other non-potable uses. Saves a lot of money since all the drinking water is desalinated sea water.

They will NEVER give you sea water when providing ice that is not in sesaled containers not intended for opening. Further they would have to be labeled as such.

A cabin steward will NEVER provide ice that is not potable (drinkable) in ice buckets or as loose cubes for any purpose. To suggest otherwise is simply wrong and a disservice to readers who may now be under a false impression.

We always ask the room steward for the ice. He gets use to it for the rest of the cruise.

WRONG.... ice in ice buckets is often used in drinks and is never sea water. Not even a remote chance

I have NEVER EVER heard of salt water ice on any cruise I have ever been on. It's the same thing as a left handed screwdriver.

sandtrap, on what ship were you provided with "salt water ice"?

The cost to freeze sea water in more than that to freeze regular water as the temperature must be significantly lower for salt water to freeze.

Running salt water through refrigeration systems would also cause a lot more corrosion and damage which would require more upkeep than if using fresh water.

Where do people get their info? Seawater ice cubes??? Nonsense! Ice has to be "potable" as folks put it in their drinks...and some drink the meltwater.
