Beyondships Posted February 13, 2009 #3 Share Posted February 13, 2009 There are tea kettles on Independence (Freedom class) because she is based in Southampton most of the year. I do not recall seeing them on Enchantment (Vision class). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shannon12 Posted February 13, 2009 #4 Share Posted February 13, 2009 Are you kidding??? Whats so shocking about the question? They were in my JS on Liberty last week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Albert Ross Posted February 13, 2009 #5 Share Posted February 13, 2009 can anyone tell me if they have Kettles in the vision of the seas cabins please. It is a English thing.... Kettles are currently in all cabins on Brilliance, Rhapsody (out of Australia) and Independence (when sailing out of England). Also in JS and above on other ships. It seems strange that none on the Vision - Because of the large number of Brits on board they ensure there is Brit entertainment, back bacon and baked beans for breakfast and announcements are in English first then Spanish and Portugese. You do not need to buy a visa for the DR as that is included. There is MyTimeDining on this ship if you want the flexibility, and on the last day you get a free city tour and lunch before you are taken back to the airport.

ma3 Posted February 13, 2009 #7 Share Posted February 13, 2009 Kettles & teas in Jr. Suite on Explorer last month. It was a Caribbean itinerary. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Missus Makkem Posted February 13, 2009 #8 Share Posted February 13, 2009 can anyone tell me if they have Kettles in the vision of the seas cabins please. No But if you go to the Dining room for breakfast and ask for hot tea you will get a nice individual silver teapot and a selection of teas. Very enjoyable for us Brits.

English Jane Posted February 14, 2009 #9 Share Posted February 14, 2009 Are you kidding??? Not a surprising question at all. In Britain EVERY hotel room from the simplest Travelodge or Bed and Breakfast to the top 5* famous names would have a kettle. Every morning when I get up (post-ablutions) I immediately have a cup of tea! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dixieva Posted February 14, 2009 #10 Share Posted February 14, 2009 Kettles & teas in Jr. Suite on Explorer last month. It was a Caribbean itinerary. If there's a kettle I wish they would add the glass french press pot so we could make our own coffee in the room. I know you can order from room service but I sure like making my own. We had the french press in the RFS last Sept on Grandeur and really enjoyed it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scoobydobe7 Posted February 14, 2009 #11 Share Posted February 14, 2009 So you can have tea kettles in a room, but no iron????? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dixieva Posted February 14, 2009 #12 Share Posted February 14, 2009 I guess so. I think the kettle we had for the french press turned off automatically so maybe that's why they feel this is safe from causing a fire. Still doesn't make much sense about the irons because how many of us take curling irons for our hair? Seems as if that is just as dangerous as an iron if you forget to turn it off. Actually it doesn't matter to me about the irons. If something gets wrinkled I just send it out to be pressed. It's not very costly and I hate to iron!

WeBCruisin Posted February 14, 2009 #13 Share Posted February 14, 2009 Wow - the tea kettle in the junior suites must be something new. We have had a JS the past two years on the Freedom with no tea kettle. We have a GS booked this summer on the Serenade - we are very much looking forward to the tea kettle AND the French Press on this cruise. Currently ALL GS and above suites include the french press.

dixieva Posted February 14, 2009 #14 Share Posted February 14, 2009 You'll love the french press. We had never even seen one before so had no clue how to use it. Once we got the hang of it, it was great. At first we put way too much coffee in there. We usually have the JS and have never had a kettle in there so I guess this is something new.

Cthy651 Posted February 14, 2009 #15 Share Posted February 14, 2009 I have never seen a kettle on any of the RCC ships, we have been on. However, we travel, with a very small kettle. My husband likes to have coffee, as soon as he gets up - instead of room service - we bring the kettle and some Maxwell House Instant coffee - so whenever, the mood strikes, he has a cup and sits on the balcony, and lets me sleep.:o Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In fact they usualy tell you during Lifeboat drill about the risk of fires and will say, no clothing irons allowed. Have seen people write on here they have had them confiscated.

jst Posted February 15, 2009 #18 Share Posted February 15, 2009 We had a teakettle in our JS on VOS in January, it was a great addition, just brought a carton of milk from the Windjammer and put it in the fridge(worked out just fine). The plug was a round 2-pin so fit into the socket on the vanity. I'm afraid travel irons are not allowed, and the tea kettle shuts off as soon as the water boils. Hope this helps.:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Both are considered a fire hazard. The ones provided by RCI are checked and approved which isn´t the case for the ones you bring. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
