I wouldn't worry it for that short of a cruise.

There is no ironing room that you will have access to but you can send your items out to be ironed by the laundry department. Just speak to your cabin steward when you first see them so you can have items sent out right away.

I use Downey wrinkle free spray instead of ironing. Works awesome!!

Most wrinkles fall out in the humidity. For dress shirts and such, send them out, they charge about half the cost of laundry. Five or six items might be $20 or so. Well worth it.

I guess it depends on your opinion of "well worth it" :)

Sounds expensive to me

Iron before you throw your clothes in your bag....then don't worry about it. There is NO ironing for passengers on RCI or Celebrity ships. If you want to pay THEM to do it, they will...costs a bunch!

[mollyeilis]

I don't consider their ironing services to be expensive at all. It's well worth it for DH to have a nice pressed shirt for dinner. I've compared the price of the service to dry cleaners at home, and onboard it's a fraction of the cost on land.

What's an iron?

Something a wife uses.:p;)

I taught both my sons how to do their own laundry, and how to iron their shirts and pants when they were 12. I've noticed they both have an ironing board and iron set up in their guest bedrooms.

 

Of course if I'm visiting, the oldest asks me to do it for him. :D

 

When I unpack on board a ship, I spray all our clothes with water before I hang them up. The moisture from all the clothes hanging together gets all the wrinkles out overnight. I pack a small empty spray bottle in our luggage.

That you pay thousands of dollars to take a cruise and then say $20 for ironing is expensive seems ironic.

Not in this household. The ironing board and iron are strictly his. He took care of his uniforms, not me.

Amen. After years of ironing my own uniforms, I'm quite particular. I iron far better than my wife and do all of the ironing in this house.

 

But on a cruise, I wear things that don't need to be ironed. My formals get a good starch job before leaving and a little wrinkle-free on the first night and a whole week of no ironing.

Although I find this thread extremely amusing, I am somewhat confused as to why the OP c/n iron his/her clothes "before" the cruise.

Iron

Fold

Place in suitcase

 

Magic!! Who the heck wants to iron on vacation (especially such a short one):confused::confused::confused:

If your clothes stay looking nice, I'm glad for you. DH and DS don't have the same luck. So now we don't even bother. Just have things sent out to be ironed, at a very nice price, on the first day! Lovely.

the above replies indicate a misread of OP's original question...all she wants to know is if they still offer the wash 'n fold or pressing services on short cruises.

[jonbgd]

The military taught me how to iron

I cant stand wrinkles

I send my clothes out first night after boarding

 

On a 4day cruise do they still have 1 formal night?

[johnjen]

We bought a really inexpensive steamer; works great! Got it at walmart. We'll bring that along with us for our upcoming cruise again!

Exactly. Was wondering how long it would take before someone would figure out what the question was before going into a rant about ironing.

Iron and press doesn't seem to be wash and fold to me.
