    A: Yes, Yangtze River cruise ship bathrooms typically have dedicated dual-voltage (110V/220V) outlets for electric shavers. These are usually found near the mirror and are limited to low-wattage devices. They may not support other appliances like hair dryers.

    From a plumbing and electrical safety angle, these outlets are isolated on GFCI-protected circuits to prevent shocks in wet areas. The dual-voltage design accommodates global travelers, but the circuit amperage is kept low to avoid overloading the ship's power system, which could disrupt nearby bathroom fixtures like exhaust fans or lighting.

    Pack a dual-voltage shaver or a suitable travel adapter. Before use, check for any voltage labels on the outlet. Never plug in high-wattage appliances, as this can trip the breaker and knock out power to essential bathroom functions.
