Yes, but I wouldn't fill them from the bathroom sink. The ship has water dispensers in several places (buffet, spa, most bars), so bring a large (empty) insulated cup with a lid and straw, and keep it filled with ice water. You might need to pour the water in from a glass, but there's drinkable water readily available.
What are the free drinks on Royal Caribbean? Your cruise fare always includes tap water, basic coffee/tea, milk and hot chocolate. Anything else usually costs extra. At breakfast, the Windjammer also serves fruit juice from concentrate that is included in your cruise fare, but freshly squeezed juices cost extra.
Onboard, bottled water can start at $3.25, and this package is worth it if you plan on enjoying a few of those throughout your cruise—plus a coffee and OJ each morning.
Water is always free of charge on most cruise ships. You may be asked to pay a fee for some versions of bottled water. However, you can likely ask for a jug of iced water in any restaurant or bar for no added cost. There are several water dispensers present on a cruise ship so that you can help yourself.
Water used for drinking is usually taken from seawater undergoing a desalination process. River cruise ships have smaller water stores. Fresh water supplies are topped up during each port visit, which isn't a huge problem since their travels don't run several days between port visits.
Shipboard potable water (drinking, bathing, whirlpools, etc.) either comes from a shoreside water treatment plant or is generated on board from seawater via Reverse Osmosis systems or Evaporators. Swimming pool water is typically seawater.
Do cruise ships provide distilled water? Yes, many cruise lines will provide a gallon of distilled water in your stateroom provided you notify them in advance that you will be bringing a CPAP. You can do this by going to the cruise line's website and submitting a guest special needs form.
To ensure you are not charged by your phone company on your cruise, you have two choices: Turn off your phone as soon as your cruise ship leaves port, or, if you want to use offline applications, put your phone into airplane mode.
Final word. On most cruises, you're welcome to wander the ship with a drink in your hand, at least in most areas. It's just like one large resort, so grab your favourite tipple and then find your perfect spot to enjoy it. Just make sure you ask for plastic glasses if you want to head over to a pool or hot tub.
