The secret to getting your cabin cleaned first

Carnival Cruise Line · Carnival Celebration · Deck 11, Cabin 11330
First-Clean PhantomAnonymous

Housekeeping supervisor, Celebration. Every steward has a section of roughly twenty cabins they clean in a set order. The order is based on a route that minimizes cart movement, not cabin number. Guests who leave their 'please clean' sign out before 8am and are out of the room by 8:30 consistently get cleaned first because the steward can start immediately without skipping and returning. Guests who sleep in get cleaned later because the steward must reroute. Cabin 11330 is the first cabin in its section's cleaning route due to its position near the supply closet. Its occupants consistently have the earliest turnover on the entire deck. If timing matters to you, ask your steward politely what time they prefer to clean and make yourself scarce at that time. They will adore you for it.
