Cape Posted February 8, 2020 #1 Share Posted February 8, 2020 On the Divina, Do you have to put your room key in a card holder to keep you lights on when you are in the room? Link to post Share on other sites
stungazed Posted February 9, 2020 #2 Share Posted February 9, 2020 Yes, or anything else that will fit into the slot. Link to post Share on other sites
Host Jazzbeau Posted February 9, 2020 #3 Share Posted February 9, 2020 Right. Save one of those fake CCs you get in the mail all the time for European ships and hotel rooms. Link to post Share on other sites
Até Posted February 9, 2020 #4 Share Posted February 9, 2020 On Divina the outlets and HVAC still work without a card in the slot. The cabin stewards prefer you not leave anything in there all the time so they know if you are really inside or not. Link to post Share on other sites
eastoftheboston Posted February 10, 2020 #5 Share Posted February 10, 2020 I know this question was about the Divina, but I was shocked to find out (at least for our room) on the Seaside that you couldn't just stick any old card in the slot, it HAD to be your room card! A driver's license or credit card inserted in there would cause a flashing red light to blink and then the lights would go out. I guess the card slots now have the technology to read the chip (or magnetic strip) in your cruise card! Link to post Share on other sites

That why I bring some older MSC cards to the cruise. It can even lock/unlock the lockers in the spa area. That's another perk of the YC. 🙂 Edited February 10, 2020 by blordos 1 Link to post Share on other sites
