They are numbered for a reason The tackiest door I’ve seen was on Vision last month. A picture of the couple and a list of all the cruises they’ve been on and their status. One cruiser’s tacky is another cruiser’s fun. Do these door decorations really bother some people this much? Its a cruise. AKA chill out time. It’s just a door - it’s just a week. Try my thoughts I used back in my yacht-charter days when I had guests onboard I disliked. I would look in the freezer .... “only 4 days and .... I’ll never see these (guests) DOOR again”. 🤗🤗🤗🤗 2 Link to post Share on other sites
NCteacherlovescruising Posted June 30, 2019 Share Posted June 30, 2019 We’ve never decorated our door before, but since we will be celebrating our 25th Anniversary on our next cruise maybe we will. I assure you, it won’t be to help us find our room. Link to post Share on other sites

They are numbered for a reason No, people do not really need door decorations to find their cabin. Even 5 year old children who know how to read numbers are able to find their cabin without needing door decorations. We often see them racing ahead of their parents to be first to the door. Even guide dogs for the blind are able to find their cabin. Even the people who put up decorations on cruise ship doors manage to find their doors without decorations in large hotels and apartment complexes. It seems that the true reason why people need door decorations on cruise ships is to provoke lengthy controversial discussions about them, like this one. 😊 😉 Actually, it is just a way to attract attention, the way that some people enjoy having Happy Birthday or Anniversary sung to them in public, and others don't.

Look up Premier Cruising Gear on Google and you’ll find it among literally a hundred or more different designs for all occasions.

bEwAbG Posted July 1, 2019 Share Posted July 1, 2019 You can easily do photo magnets at Walmart, CVS, or Target photo shops. Shutterfly has more options. Link to post Share on other sites

sandiherbert Posted July 2, 2019 Share Posted July 2, 2019 (edited) I always decorate our cabin door. It's fun, it makes me happy and I can find my room when I have had a few after dinner drinks. I say decorate away and be happy! Life is to short to not do what makes you happy! I bought this door magnet from Etsy. Cost was about $10.00. I love it!

On a recent cruise, someone had some precious photos removed from their door. They were heartbroken. On the same cruise, someone had left their scooter in the corridor outside their room and it was brought to another floor. Sad... Link to post Share on other sites

Very sad! i leave my scooter outside my door during the day and in the cabin at night BUT Hubs takes the batteries in the cabin to charge. This time we have a nice, big (extra wide doorways) Handicapped Cabin so I expect the scooter lives in the cabin. i can’t have just anyone steal my little bike Bell I’m bringing.
