Hello, cruise enthusiasts!
Recently, one of you reached out to me via Facebook with a question regarding the types of electrical outlets available on Royal Caribbean ships.
This made me realize how crucial it is for future passengers, particularly those from outside the US who, like myself, have multiple devices with European chargers (or chargers from other regions), to know about the onboard power outlet options.
Therefore, I’ve put together this article to explore with you the power outlets found across the Royal Caribbean fleet.
Plug Sockets on Royal Caribbean
Starting with the essentials, each Royal Caribbean ship is equipped with at least two US sockets and one European socket, all conveniently located above the desk.
Below is a picture showing the socket arrangement on Liberty of the Seas, with the US sockets on the left side of the desk and the European socket to the right.
Modern cruise ships have seen several enhancements, including the addition of another US outlet (bringing the total to three) and two USB ports, which are extremely handy for charging smartphones and other devices that use USB charging.
The following photo illustrates the socket layout on Harmony of the Seas, which is representative of the newer ships in Royal Caribbean’s fleet.
On some ships, I’ve found as many as seven electrical outlets on the desk, including three US outlets, two European outlets, and two USB outlets, as shown in the photo below.
For example, this is the standard configuration on Wonder of the Seas, because it was designed as a ship targeting a more international audience.
Outlets Beside the Bed
Most Royal Caribbean ships also feature outlets beside the bed, perfect for charging your phone overnight.
These outlets come in two varieties: those located near the light switch and those on the lamp beside the bed. The images below show both arrangements.
If you’re having trouble locating them, look closely, as they can sometimes be hidden. I’ve even included them in the article about the hidden things you can find in cruise ship cabins.
List of Ships
As you might expect, the number and types of electrical outlets vary by ship. Older ships typically have standard outlets, while newer ships have increased the number of outlets and introduced USB ports.
I’ve compiled a list of the outlets available on each Royal Caribbean ship.
Just keep in mind that they can change without warning, for instance, if a ship undergoes restoration or modernization.
