    Be aware that the cruise lines seem to be limiting that. I took mine on my cruise last spring and was unable to use it. The room didn't have any open outlets. But there was a laundry room with an iron available just down the hall.

    Now that may have to do with the age of the ship. The ship I was on only started in February, so onlder ships may still have the outlets open.

    There were probably some incidents with people using outlets improperly, so they are limiting them.

    I don't know the whole story, but I thought you could use a heads up.

    That was my first thought. We never go on a cruise w/o a laptop, two rechargeable two-way radios, two iPods etc.

    They have all prohibited irons though due to danger of fire.
