sscruising Posted April 13, 2004 #1 Share Posted April 13, 2004 We are travelling on RCL's AOS in Aug. and need to know what the ship's policy is regarding carrying all our luggage on board by ourselves. I know the airlines have size and weight limits but I need to know if all our luggage must be small enough to go through the on board scanners.

ss-sunset Posted April 13, 2004 #2 Share Posted April 13, 2004 I was told by my TA that you can carry your luggage on provided the bag fits through the scanners. The scanners are around the same size as the ones at the airport. We plan to carry our luggage on NOS in October. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BaumD Posted April 13, 2004 #3 Share Posted April 13, 2004 The ships do use airport style xray machines, so your "carry-ons" must fit thru them. All they need is 3000 peole trying to lug their big suitcases thru the Centrum lobby and into the elevator. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trevoli Posted April 19, 2004 #4 Share Posted April 19, 2004 Was on the MOS last August, I used a regulation-sized wheeled carry-on, I boarded with my bag. My friend had a bigger wheeled suitcase, it was taken from her right at the terminal in San Pedro, and it showed up in the cabin just a couple hours later, no problem.

MaryPoppinz Posted April 21, 2004 #5 Share Posted April 21, 2004 This is one of the few cases where I think the best source of information is your cruiseline. Unless a passenger comes along who remembers how large the scanners were at your disembarkation lounge, the cruiseline is the only source for this info. I have had no problem with carrying on my luggage, but I've never used RCL. [b]"I'm gonna book myself on that Princess Cruise."

sscruising Posted April 22, 2004 Author #6 Share Posted April 22, 2004 I agree that the cruise line is the best source of info and I will be doing that. I just figured that there must be some cruisers out there who has sailed with RCL and perhaps live near the port where no transfers are needed and just wanted to know if they travel with nothing but small carry on bags or if they have any problems with carrying larger bags.

MaryPoppinz Posted April 22, 2004 #7 Share Posted April 22, 2004 My guess is that your stuff will probably fit. Mine aren't enourmous, but they're probably twice as big as carry-on Rollaboard luggage. Have a great trip! [b]"I'm gonna book myself on that Princess Cruise."
