creel5857 Posted August 24, 2018 #1 Share Posted August 24, 2018 we have friends who are sisters going on eurodam in a week and both have cpap machines and will need outlet by beds which will be in configuration with beds separated. Can anyone give update information if there will be outlets for both cpaps and other outlets in room enough to plug in a camera and phone.....maybe outlets around desk area or anywhere else other than bathroom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pugmadkate Posted August 24, 2018 #2 Share Posted August 24, 2018 When we were on the Eurodam in June in a balcony cabin, my husband had to plug in an extension cord at the desk and run it over to the bed for his CPAP. I would imagine both people would have to do that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lajbec Posted August 24, 2018 #3 Share Posted August 24, 2018 We used an extension cord for cpaps (2) and used the USB ports next to each side of our bed to charge our electronics. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
freestyling Posted August 24, 2018 #4 Share Posted August 24, 2018 You can request an extension cord in advance from ship services or thru your TA or PCC if you don’t wish to pack one. Remember no surge protection. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
creel5857 Posted August 24, 2018 Author #5 Share Posted August 24, 2018 Thanks for replies.......I was in hopes that it had an electrical plug in somewhere on the bed side of cabin to avoid cord in floor. We have been on 8 cruises thus far and had only 2 ships that had sufficient plugs. I am not sure what all the families do who really take a lot of plug in items because we old folks take very few and still have problems with cpaps and basic item like a single camera. Again, thanks everyone Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bcummin Posted August 24, 2018 #7 Share Posted August 24, 2018 Between the front desk and our room stewards, the extension cords worked well for my husband's c pap machine. (He did request the extension cord before we left home.) Also bring a roll of duct tape to secure the extension cord to the floor. You don't want to trip on the thing.

Barbara I just unplug the extension cord when I get up and move it out of the way so we don’t trip over it during the day.

catl331 Posted August 24, 2018 #9 Share Posted August 24, 2018 I am not sure what all the families do who really take a lot of plug in items because we old folks take very few and still have problems with cpaps and basic item like a single camera.Most phone/camera/computer/etc chargers these days will work on up to 240 volts, so all you need is simple, cheap plug adapters to use both of the 220v outlets at the desk. Check the labels on your charger plugs. I bring some "cube tap" or "triple tap" adapters that give me up to three items on each 110v outlet. The extension cords available from the ship might have multiple outlets at the end, or you can put a triple tap on it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RuthC Posted August 24, 2018 #11 Share Posted August 24, 2018 I was in hopes that it had an electrical plug in somewhere on the bed side of cabin to avoid cord in floor. I agree. With all the changes made to the cabins, including adding USB ports by the bed, I can't believe no outlets there were added, too. Many people use a CPAP, and that has to be used at the bed. I bring two extension cords in different lengths, to be sure I have the right size for every ship and hotel room. I ask the steward to tape it along the wall and under the closets (where necessary), then up to the desk. That way the cord can't cause tripping, as it is along the perimeter. The steward usually uses a tape more like a packing tape, although IIRC regular tape works, too. It's easily removed that last morning when I need to pack up the CPAP.
