Pool Towels on Cruise Ships - Please Help!
Damn! I'd even trade the rock climbing wall (which I love) for a
constant supply of fresh towels by the pool. Howard Peri Schacknow wrote: Sorry to be the bearer of bad news Howard, but on the RCCL's Navigator of the Seas a couple of weeks ago we were issued pool towels IN THE ROOM, which were only to be EXCHANGED (for a dry one, I guess) at the pool. You could request one from a pool attendant, but they weren't out in the bins as they'd always been before. ~ Peri |

Pool Towels on Cruise Ships - Please Help!
I'm a high maintenance towel user too. Can't have too many. I like two
on my lounge chair, one to dry off with, and one to roll as a pillow. So there's 4 right there. I guess I'm not "saving the waves" enough huh?? Jeff Howard Garland wrote: Damn! I'd even trade the rock climbing wall (which I love) for a constant supply of fresh towels by the pool. Howard |

Pool Towels on Cruise Ships - Please Help!
Four towels on one chair is definitely preferable to two towels on four
chairs. I cruised on the Sun Princess during Christmas week, when the ship was brand new. It was the first time that I encountered towel rationing on a ship. The ship was quite full and there were a large number perfectly quaffed princesses from Long Island aboard. It seemed that many of these ladies used their rationed towels only as territory, or should I say homestead, markers, because there was no way these lovely gals were going to get anything wet. Lounges at the pool were constantly empty and reserved at the same time. One woman had actually reserved 8 chairs in the sun and 8 in the shade. Single towels were spread across multiple, unoccupied chairs all day long. She didn't have enough towels, so she added empty shopping bags (from only the best NY stores). After a couple of hours, I asked if I could use one of her empty bag, marked chairs for a friend who had joined me. He answer was "No"! These days, when I encounter a similar (but honestly never this extreme) situation on a ship, I just take the chair, despite protest, and promise to return it whenever the reservee really needs it.
