Royal Caribbean passengers can be charged a fee when pool towels are not returned, but some guests have reported seeing the charge even after they believe they brought their towels back, according to Royal Caribbean Blog.
The issue centers on the cruise line’s towel-return policy and the potential for a charge to appear on a passenger’s onboard account if a towel is recorded as unreturned. Travelers using pool towels may want to review their account charges during their sailing and before disembarkation.
Royal Caribbean Blog described the charge as an unexpected fee for passengers who said they had returned their towels. The supplied report does not specify the fee amount, which ships were involved, or how individual disputes were resolved.
