We go in one at a time so not an issue2-Carnival says no liquor, how much do they "allow" to be packed in your luggage? None they xray your luggage and you will get it confiscated when you are called to the naughty room 3-what is everyone using for underwater pictures? Disposable or camera cases?

firefly333 Posted October 25, 2009 #3 Share Posted October 25, 2009 You can buy a waterproof sack, but that wouldnt keep your towel dry at the beach. You rent a umbrella at some, so should be able to leave your towel there and clothes safely. You can bring one bottle of wine or champagne aboard, anything else comes under smuggling. I use a disposable camera. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Annmarie58 Posted October 25, 2009 #4 Share Posted October 25, 2009 Carnival or any cruise line does not allow you to smuggle liquor. But that has not stopped alot of people ....Us being among the nasty smugglers! Just be discreet pack only what you need Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nanuak Posted October 25, 2009 #6 Share Posted October 25, 2009 Although Carnival does not advertise this infomation.. If you are worried about smuggling, you can order liquor from the Bon Voyage department (you must call them directly). You pay a premium, but it is delivered direct to your cabin, wrapped in cellophane with a ribbon, and with no worries about being confiscated.

beachbum6264 Posted October 25, 2009 #7 Share Posted October 25, 2009 For where to put stuff while you're on the beach: if you google "pacsafe travel safe" you will find several sites. One hint: change the lock that comes with it to a combination lock, that way you won't have to worry about keeping up with a key. We hook it to the lounge chair or up in the ribs in an umbrella, use it in hotel rooms without a safe, on snorkel excursions - attach it to the boat, and in my little convertible - we put the gps and ipod in it and hook it to the OMG:eek: bar. It's been one travel 'thing' that we've bought and used a lot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

imsulin Posted October 25, 2009 #9 Share Posted October 25, 2009 I have always used a "water wallet" - a hard plastic waterproof case about the size of a pack of cigarettes. Years ago, all the ships sold them onboard, but I haven't seen them lately. I can fit my room card, cash, CC, copy of Passport, watch, and some cigs and a lighter. I bought two of these on an NCL cruise back in 2003, and still use them. They have an adjustable cord to fit around your neck or waist, and I take it right in the water with me. You might want to google around for something like this. Have fun on your cruise! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
