Laundry Facilities?

[kennedyp5]

We are first time cruisers and will be taking the Norwegian Star from LA to Mexico. Does the ship have a laundry room? Are there any other laundry service options?

Norwegian ships do not have self serve laundry. You can sent it out, and they will do it for you for a fee.

you're on vacation too.

Send it out

Mid-way through the cruise they will offer a "Fill the paper laundry bag" special. It will be about $20. If you roll and smoosh the clothes carefully you can fit a lot in.

Ah....good oint. Usually 7 day or longer cruises. Thanks for catching that.

The cost is higher than $20 now, at least it is on Royal Caribbean. I think it's $30. We always use the "fill the paper bag" special, mid-cruise and send undies, socks, shorts, etc. I like the idea of getting home and not having a suitcase full of dirty clothes.

Depending on the length of time away we will utilise the laundry for larger clothing items like jeans and shirts and such but do our smalls ourselves in the shower. Drying them on the line in the bathroom each night or in the wardrobe during the day.

The OP is on NCL which still charges $19.95 for the bag special.

Nope! You can utilize the bag special. Roll your items to get more in the bag. It doesn't need to close. I have also reinforced the bag with duct tape.
