broadwaycam Posted October 21, 2014 #1 Share Posted October 21, 2014 What are people's thoughts on wearing a lanyard to hold your SeaPass card? Personally I love having a lanyard for my SeaPass card. It is easier for me to keep track of it if it is around my neck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shirleygallegos60 Posted October 21, 2014 #3 Share Posted October 21, 2014 Ok, if you loose your sea pass card, how do you get it replaced, how long does that take, and what if you have the drink package on it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
killtheump Posted October 21, 2014 #4 Share Posted October 21, 2014 Ok, if you loose your sea pass card, how do you get it replaced, how long does that take, and what if you have the drink package on it? Go to Guest Services they issue you one on the spot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
broadwaycam Posted October 21, 2014 Author #5 Share Posted October 21, 2014 Ok, if you loose your sea pass card, how do you get it replaced, how long does that take, and what if you have the drink package on it? Why would the card get lost? You could also loose it if just in your pocket. If the drink package is on it you can still use it. Being on a lanyard does not keep it from being able to be used.

cb at sea Posted October 21, 2014 #6 Share Posted October 21, 2014 (edited) I don't wear one to cary my room key in a hotel, so I don't wear one on a ship! I keep mine in a small purse, with lipstick, comb, tissues, etc..... Hubby's is in his pocket! I've never, ever lost my house or car keys, so why would I lose my card? If you do somehow lose it, you go to the desk and get it replaced! Edited October 21, 2014 by cb at sea Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davekathy Posted October 21, 2014 #7 Share Posted October 21, 2014 We've never missplaced or lost a sea pass card or Credit Card yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shirleygallegos60 Posted October 21, 2014 #8 Share Posted October 21, 2014 Well that's great that you have never ever lost them, actually that's awesome but once in awhile things happen....... But I'm sure it will never happen to you and only to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Setsail24 Posted October 21, 2014 #9 Share Posted October 21, 2014 I will being using a Lanyard next cruise. My seapass kept going defunct and not reading when I was getting on and off the ship at ports. It somehow kept coming in contact with something that erased it (like my credit card and/or enhanced drivers license.) Had to get it replaced twice on a 7 day cruise and lived with the nuisance the rest of the time. I don't always have pockets in my clothing and I definitely do not carry a purse around with me on the cruise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OCruisers Posted October 21, 2014 #10 Share Posted October 21, 2014 Not fans of the lanyards ... get in the way being draped around the neck. :rolleyes: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1ParticularHbr Posted October 21, 2014 #11 Share Posted October 21, 2014 Cell phones and magnets will deactivate your card. I carry my phone (for photos) instead of a camera so, to keep the card functioning, it goes on a lanyard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I'm sure it will never happen to you and only to me. We've never lost one either - and don't use a lanyard, but I do see kids wearing them. If we did lose one, it would be immediately replaced at guest services - have seen others get them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vrock Posted October 21, 2014 #13 Share Posted October 21, 2014 I use a landyard I don't always have pockets and I don't want to pack a purse.:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Desert Cruizers Posted October 21, 2014 #14 Share Posted October 21, 2014 The drink package is in the computer so when they issue you a new card it is put on your new card. We use a lanyard, so much easier to use vs reaching in your pockets. Only time my Card goes in a pocket is when I go ashore and bring my camera.

RocketMan275 Posted October 21, 2014 #15 Share Posted October 21, 2014 The subject of lanyards comes up frequently. Basically, if you're used to wearing a lanyard, perhaps because your work requires you to have your ID visible at all times, you find nothing wrong with a lanyard. If you've never had to wear one, you find all sorts of problems with them. Personally, I've had to wear a lanyard at work for years. Just doesn't seem to be a problem. I've found most cabins have a place to hand them close to the door. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Setsail24 Posted October 21, 2014 #16 Share Posted October 21, 2014 I have until April 26 2015 to figure out another option. Even if I have to sew a hidden pocket in whatever I will be wearing. I'm pretty clever so I will come up with something so it is tucked away and I don't need to carry a purse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MysticRhythmCruiser Posted October 21, 2014 #17 Share Posted October 21, 2014 I got a funky beaded one a bunch of cruises ago and wear that while on the ship for the most part. Depends on the mood. I don't like the big ribbon ones, it makes me feel like I'm at a conference, not a cruise! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bighairtexan Posted October 21, 2014 #20 Share Posted October 21, 2014 Lots of clutch type purses have a magnetic clasp and that will wipe your card clean in a heartbeat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ander026 Posted October 21, 2014 #24 Share Posted October 21, 2014 I have started using a lanyard when on a ship. I like it because when on the ship all I need is my Seapass card. I have that on the lanyard. Now when I go ashore my card goes in my wallet, that way I do not advertise I am a tourist. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
