Dect Phones on LIBERTY

[yorkiemomjn]

I recently learned about these. Are they currently available on Liberty?

If so, I would like your opinions about them.

 

Thank you!

They used to rent them for $25 per cruise at Guest Services. There were a limited number, so you had to get there quick. I've not heard of them being rented in a while.

If you have a child under 5 in care you get one WHILE they are in there. Every time we dropped DS off at the nursery we got one. But it was due back when we picked him up.

Our TA agent checked for me. She said they told her yes, we could get them after we board.

Not saying your TA wasn't told that but what they say over the phone and what happens onboard the ship are often vastly different.

I understand, but she has some inside connections higher up that she contacted.

I'd go straight to Guest Services as soon as you board.

Please report back. I'd like to know the cost and how well they work.

I will. That's what I was wanting to know! :)

She said it was a VP she talked to and hopefully he would know! We'll see!

 

I'll report back!:)

We just disembarked Liberty. Our 8 year old son has special needs and they were happy to provide it while he was in the kids club. We checked it out when he went in and returned it when we picked him up. Knowing that they could contact us if he needed us (which they did several times when he wanted to be picked up) gave us great peace of mind! The service was free but we had to know to ask for it.

Thanks for the info.
