Constellation Baltic Laundry by the Bag Day(s)?

Does anyone know which day(s) of the Constellation 12 day Baltic that they offer the laundry by the bag specials?

On our July Baltic Cruise it was the day we were in Copenhagen - I guess that would be day 11. If you're planning on using this service be on the alert for it! If I remember correctly, there was a small "ad" about it on an insert in the daily. And it was available only until noon that day. We left our "bag" on the bed as we went out of our cabin for a port excursion. (Received everything back that evening in perfect conditiong!) But as we were having lunch with a couple we from our dinner table subject of laundry came up and they had never seen anything about "laundry bag"! So read the "daily" every day!

While we haven't done this cruise, lately it has been our experience on other Celebrity cruises that the "bag of laundry" is only offered to everyone as an end of cruise special to take clean clothes home. It is also offered to Elite, and maybe Select, loyalty club (Captain's Club) passengers at the beginning of cruises as part of a set of coupons given to them.

 

The bag of laundry is a good deal but not a great deal. Unless you are in a high level Captains Club class the special is usually $30. If you work dilligently on it you might be able to fit $45 or $50 of stuff into the bag. But also be aware that the regular piece rate prices include pressing for appropriate items like button up shirts and slacks and returns such items on hangers and the "bag of laundry" special usually only returns these folded and in a paper bag. So while the $10 to $20 savings is nothing to sneeze at it isn't too big of a deal if you need to clean items for use during the cruise.
