Thank you all, very helpful answers! Wasn't sure if it was as strict as airport security, so I should be fine.

How exactly do they verify liquids? Are they going to make me sip the vinegar and/or mouthwash?

Hi! I am booked on the MSC Lirica next month for a transatlantic crossing (Barcelona-Paranagua, I posted my roll call here: https://boards.cruisecritic.co.uk/topic/2965447-msc-lirica-november-13th-2023-barcelona-paranagua-brazil). This will be my first ever cruise and I am wondering what the boarding process is like and, in particularly, if there are bag checks/any prohibited items? I was intending to bring some liquids in glass bottles (mouthwash, 500ml; and apple cider vinegar; 500ml) and I am worried they'll not let me take them on, so it would be good to know in advance what to expect. I think other than that everything I am bringing is pretty standard! Kind regards, Robert
