Cruise Fam 4 Posted May 11, 2011 #1 Share Posted May 11, 2011 I'm wondering if I purchase alcohol in port on the first week of a back to back cruise if they will deliver to my room as usual on the last night. Not trying to be sneaky but it would be nice to have rum from Jamaica in my room for consumption on the 2nd week. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SANDY823 Posted May 11, 2011 #2 Share Posted May 11, 2011 Negative ! what you need to do is find a buddy from the first week -who's not doing the b2b - put it in their name- and get if from them on the last night.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Puffinater Posted May 11, 2011 #3 Share Posted May 11, 2011 It can be hit or miss. Have seen it go both ways. Best bet is to have it delivered to another cabin and pick it up from them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
celle Posted May 11, 2011 #4 Share Posted May 11, 2011 I'm wondering if I purchase alcohol in port on the first week of a back to back cruise if they will deliver to my room as usual on the last night. Not trying to be sneaky but it would be nice to have rum from Jamaica in my room for consumption on the 2nd week. :D We've done 3 back-to-back cruises. On each one, they kept the alcohol until the end of the second cruise. IF you purchase duty-free at the on-board shops, they have a list of who is doing b2b cruises and you won't see your alcohol until the end of your second cruise. I suggest you do what we did - make friends with someone who is disembarking at the end of the first cruise. Pay them the cost of the alcohol, ask them to buy it for you, and collect it from them when it is delivered to them at the end of the first cruise. Same idea if you buy in port.

niko40 Posted May 11, 2011 #5 Share Posted May 11, 2011 We have also done 3 b2b and on each one the booze was delivered to the room at the end of the first week so who knows perhaps its differant on each ship. (but this was drink purchased off the ship in port so mybee thats the way) lol :) anyway good luck and have a great cruise Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iSailor Posted May 11, 2011 #6 Share Posted May 11, 2011 I got mine bought on the ship.They transferred my luggages to another room with no question and problem. I think you get your liquars on the last day as they don't know you are having b2b Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Host Kewlguy Posted May 11, 2011 #8 Share Posted May 11, 2011 We've done back to back's twice in the past. Both times the alcohol was delivered to our stateroom on the last night of the first cruise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cruisermob Posted May 11, 2011 #9 Share Posted May 11, 2011 We purchased alcohol on the ship the last day of our first week of our B2B and we were able to take it back to our room with us. I think that is pretty standard practice when you purchase it on the last day, and noone checked to see if we were doing a B2B. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gerif Posted May 12, 2011 #10 Share Posted May 12, 2011 We purchased alcohol on the ship the last day of our first week of our B2B and we were able to take it back to our room with us. I think that is pretty standard practice when you purchase it on the last day, and noone checked to see if we were doing a B2B. We also purchased our alcohol at about 10 a.m. on the morning of the last full day - there was a large line of people buying and the clerk was very frazzled (he had also run out of boxes and people were complaining) and everyone was just allowed to take their purchases with them.
