Silly question about corkscrew for wine

Supposedly the Britannia cabin comes with a half bottle of wine. Do they supply the corkscrew (assuming not screw top)?

Also, if I bring my own wine on board to drink in the room, am I correct in assuming I need to bring a corkscrew?

Any issues bringing a corkscrew through security?

It's sparkling wine. You just take off the metal cage and ease off the cork with your thumbs, taking care not to let the cork fly off.

Yes, if you take wine that you want to drink in your cabin, it would be best to take a corkscrew. Your cabin steward may be able to loan you one, but I've never had any issue taking a simple one onboard with me.

The small blade for cutting foil is within the (four inch?) size limit for possessing onboard the cruise, so no problem with a Corkscrew. Airlines might be more restrictive but generally a Corkscrew is ok on a plane.

I thought so too,but had one confiscated at Malaga Airport.

Either choose your selection of Carry-on wines that have a screw top or, suffer the embarrassment of traipsing along to the nearest bar venue and ask those crew members to oblige .

I don't think you can 'always rely' on a stateroom steward to loan you a 'corkscrew', the amount of folk who take wine onboard ,they'd have to have an endless supply on hand. ;)

I recall seeing Cunard logo corkscrews for sale - one of the few practical items in the shops
