Popular Cruise Essential CONFISCATED? Here's What You Need to Know

Editorial Summary

The creator addresses recent changes to the prohibited items list on Royal Caribbean, specifically noting the addition of multi-plug outlets to their banned items. While the cruise line does not specify if this applies to surge protected or non-surge protected devices, the creator notes that this change may lead to stricter enforcement. The video explores whether other cruise lines like Celebrity or Princess are following this trend, concluding that Princess still allows certain electrical devices like multi-plug box outlets and adapters as long as they lack surge protectors. To help travelers manage limited cabin outlets, the creator suggests several workarounds. These include using international travel adapters to utilize European outlets, using a laptop to charge mobile devices, and carrying portable power banks for overnight charging. The creator also speculates that Royal Caribbean may be implementing these rules to avoid security complications regarding surge protected items. Ultimately, the video encourages cruise lines to update older ships with more modern USB and USBC charging capabilities to reduce the need for extra equipment.
