Wash and Fold Date???

[STEVE-O]

We've always turned in the W&F laundry bag when we needed to and have never been charged

 

The footnote on the new C&A benefits page indicates the freebie (D+) is only good on the W&F date.

Is this limitation new??

It may be but very unlikely the on-board benefit will be handled any differently.

On the last 8 cruises we've been on we've been able to use the W&F on the day we've asked for it, and have had no problems doing so. Just ask your cabin steward for the (paper) bag.

That's what we've always done. I hadn't noticed the limitation until I read the current benefit (effective this month) sheet......

Yes, it's new.  It has me a little concerned, but I suspect it won't be followed.

Seems like they'd want to spread out the work over the cruise rather than get slammed by free D+ and Pinn laundry the same day that everyone else is sending their paid-for laundry.

Is the Wash and Fold always on the same day?  For me it has always been hit or miss if I even get notified about it.  Usually if I want it I have to ask the cabin steward

We're doing a 15-night Panama Canal cruise next month.  It'll be interesting if there's only 1 W&F date......

I've never heard of a W&F day prior to reading it yesterday on CC. 

 

We've simply asked for a bag, filled it and left it for the cabin attendant.    We often used two during the cruise, even if there were just a few items in the bag. (it is complimentary for us) .  We make sure  not to send it  too close to the end of the cruise. 

 

It is so helpful for B2B cruises as long as one understands what can go in the bag and how the clothing is laundered.

It wouldn't surprise me if the perk was always only available on W&F day, but never enforced

[icsys]

I've never read or heard it referred to as a 'wash and fold day' previously

Usually pack just enough of the items that are suitable for the bag and have been using midway through cruise, will see how this works in a week.

It seems if it’s only available one day during the cruise, that eligible members in a cabin can likely only use the benefit once rather than once each. The items are so limited of what can go in the bag that we’ve never needed more than one bag at any particular day. But we use two bags during the course of a cruise.
