Does Costa allow hair straighteners?

[Velvetwater]

I read a review where a lady said she read Costa did not allow her straighteners so she left them at home.

 

I have coarse (redhead) very long hair. I am not a vain person but they are one of my few bits of kit I use each day. I do need them.

This review was 2012. 

Is this true?

 

There prohibited list has straighteners on one page but then another prohibited list does not have them on.

 

Emailed Costa but no luck yet.

You will be okay with hair straighteners & small electrical items however always unplug them when leaving the cabin & put them away.

Please note that all chargers, phones  & in fact anything you are charging can cause a fire so please do un-plug after use or if not in cabin.

You may also need an adaptor as there is only one useable outlet available.

Excellent advice fro tenpin - as always 😊 

 

I could never go anywhere without my straighteners and have never had a problem taking them on board.

Is  it a US outlet or European outlet.?

[tenpin]

Both, but you may well need an adaptor as on some ships mine did not plug in to US point.
