mort&fran Posted July 16, 2011 #1 Share Posted July 16, 2011 We have not sailed with X since the mid-90's. HAL permits cruisers to bring wine, champagne, and water onboard (but not soft drinks or beer), for no charge if consumed in your cabin (corkage fee applies if you want your own in the dinig rooms). Does anyone know X's policy? ThanX! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bellybutton530 Posted July 16, 2011 #2 Share Posted July 16, 2011 You are permitted to bring 2 bottles of wine per cabin onboard. A corkage fee of $25 per bottle applies if the wine is served in a public area. You are permitted to bring water and sodas onboard. Simply slap a luggage tag on each box/flat and leave it with the porters when you drop off your luggage. Beer and hard liquor cannot be brought onboard.

Rare Presto2 Posted July 16, 2011 #3 Share Posted July 16, 2011 Does that mean that at Rome we can bring on board 6 bottles of water in a carrier and at every other stop we can bring on as much bottled water as we want in a carrier bag? If so, then I am glad that we have just cancelled out drinks package ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bellybutton530 Posted July 16, 2011 #6 Share Posted July 16, 2011 Why not let the porters schlep those sodas and water to your cabin for you when you embark? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare cruisestitch Posted July 16, 2011 #7 Share Posted July 16, 2011 Well, as they are embarking in Rome, they would still have to go somewhere and buy their big bottles, or cases, of water and somehow get them to the ship on their own, I guess. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

texast518 Posted July 17, 2011 #9 Share Posted July 17, 2011 Celebrity Cruises Alcohol Policy Home > Celebrity Cruises Alcohol Policy Cruise Line Alcohol Policies Are You Legal? Celebrity Cruises' minimum drinking age for all alcoholic beverages is 21 years of age. However, on cruises departing from a country where legal drinking ages are lower than 21 (typically European and South American countries), a parent sailing with a child between the ages of 18 and 20 may sign a waiver allowing for the consumption of alcoholic beverages. Bringing Booze Onboard Bringing liquor onboard at embarkation: No alcoholic beverages may be brought onboard for consumption with the exception of wine. If you're caught with liquor, it'll be confiscated and returned at the end of the cruise. Bringing wine or Champagne onboard: Passengers may bring two bottles of wine per stateroom, but when consumed in any shipboard restaurant, bar or dining venue, there's a corkage fee of $25 per bottle. Wine purchased from the selection of bon voyage gifts are not subject to a corkage fee. Purchasing liquor in port: Alcoholic beverages purchased ashore will be held until the end of the cruise. Purchasing liquor in ships' duty-free shop: Onboard purchases from the gift shop of any bottle of liquor will be held until the last night of the cruise. Free Drink Caveat On occasion, Celebrity's casinos offer free cocktails for players. Check your daily program. Beer Onboard Draught Unknown Bottled Beer Hitachino Nest (Japan), Heineken, Corona, Becks, Coors products, Budweiser products, Miller products, Dos Equis, Red Stripe, Samuel Adams, Bohemia, Carlsberg, Grolsch, Newcastle Brown Ale, Guinness, Boddington's, Murphy's, Stella Artois, and two non-alcoholic brands, O'Douls and Buckler Specialty Bars Celebrity's new Solstice-class of ships, which includes Celebrity Solstice, Celebrity Equinox and the not-yet-debuted Celebrity Eclipse, has a couple of specialty bar venues onboard.
