paul929207 Posted March 21, 2012 #4 Share Posted March 21, 2012 The rules only allow a bottle of wine or champagne, but they don't always enforce the rule Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare TracieABD Posted March 21, 2012 #5 Share Posted March 21, 2012 A bottle of tequila may be a problem (even if you smuggle it on successfully)!:eek: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1 HappyCruiser Posted March 21, 2012 #6 Share Posted March 21, 2012 Officially, no tequila but unofficially people are never stopped from taking alcohol on board in Port Everglades (other than wine which is officially allowed). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BettyCruiser Posted March 21, 2012 #7 Share Posted March 21, 2012 How much alcohol can you bring on board without a problem? Can you pack a bottle of Tequila in your luggage? Yes, you should have no problem, just make sure it won't break. I purchase my prefered liquor at home in a plastic bottle, then pack in checked luggage. Have not had any problem.

Unca Pete Posted March 21, 2012 #8 Share Posted March 21, 2012 One word : RUM RUNNER. Okay, that was two words! Some ships and ports are more strick than others. Hard liquor generally isn't allowed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Canusa02 Posted March 21, 2012 #9 Share Posted March 21, 2012 How much alcohol can you bring on board without a problem? Can you pack a bottle of Tequila in your luggage? It is supposed to be one bottle of wine per legal adult, but we took three bottles in our carry-on in 2009. We were with three other couples who didn't bring anything, so they were willing to take the third bottle if it caused a problem. Princess didn't lose money from us, as there were numerous mixed drinks and beers purchased throughout the cruise. On these boards, I have heard of people bringing a case of wine on with no problem, but I would not want to risk the possibility of having to forfeit 10 bottles.

BettyCruiser Posted March 22, 2012 #12 Share Posted March 22, 2012 I disagree,before I got my rumrunners Princess managed to break bottles in my luggage twice! I agree, if you can't purchase your desired liquor in plastic bottles, rumrunners would be recommended. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HDGREG Posted March 22, 2012 #13 Share Posted March 22, 2012 Read on CC recently, that you can actually order bottles of hard liquor to have in your room only. I think two was the limit. Not to overpriced and then it was legit. You also could get mixer in your room. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

5326jan Posted March 22, 2012 #16 Share Posted March 22, 2012 We just returned from 3/11-18 sailing on Ruby. I brought 1 black box of wine, 2 good bottles of wine, 2 liter bottles of water, a small 6 pack of cranberry juice, a liter bottle of ginger ale and 2 limes. All these were packaged in a box from Total Wine and a luggage tag was applied. The box did make it to the cabin, but it had been opened and searched. FWIW, this was spring break, so I don't know if that made restrictions tighter than usual. I feel sure that if there was alcohol in the box, I would have made a trip to the naughty room. We purchased ourselves a "gift" of vodka prior to our cruise. The voucher was in our cabin and was delivered by room service. The cost was $17.50 for 375ml, I'm not sure what it would have been if we bought it aboard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
waterbabyfish Posted March 22, 2012 #17 Share Posted March 22, 2012 Some of the liq. stores in Fl. sell a bag full of 1 shot portions of rum,vodka and whiskey, they look like what ketchup and mayo. come in. This is a new product and I don't believe the cruise lines know about these yet! :p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
