Bluedevil Posted July 30, 2005 #1 Share Posted July 30, 2005 So what CAN I take aboard a cruise? I was thinking I would like to bring: My own alcohol and soft drinks? Is this not allowed? Thanks:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare LHT28 Posted July 30, 2005 #2 Share Posted July 30, 2005 Depends on the cruiseline! Check their website or brochure ! Carnival -NO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cotton Posted July 30, 2005 #4 Share Posted July 30, 2005 Since you didn't say which cruise line, I'll tell you about Carnival: YES, you may bring a 'reasonable amount' of soft drinks on board at embarkation. You may also bring a couple of bottles of wine. Both these items are allowed by Carnival. What is not allowed is liquor and beer, although some folks do smuggle them on; however, if found, they will be confiscated. As far as other NO-NOs, there really aren't many. NO irons, candles, or heating pads allowed in any passenger cabins. Those items are HUGE fire hazards. (Laundry rooms are available if you need to iron.)

Bluedevil Posted July 30, 2005 Author #5 Share Posted July 30, 2005 ohh thanks for the info. Didn't even think about an iron?? We are thinking of RCL but not sure which ship. Or NCL haven't decided. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caviargal Posted July 30, 2005 #6 Share Posted July 30, 2005 On RCI, I brought wine aboard and paid the corkage fee. I do not drink soft drinks or alcohol so cannot comment. I always buy lots of water while in port because IMO it is overpriced on all ships. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaptData Posted July 30, 2005 #7 Share Posted July 30, 2005 Most cruise lines allow you to bring some pop, water and/or wine. BUT no a massive amount. No liquor or beer in most cases. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andee Posted July 30, 2005 #8 Share Posted July 30, 2005 Oceania lets you bring any beverages you want on board. On a Med cruise, we like to buy local wine in port to drink in our cabin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caviargal Posted July 30, 2005 #9 Share Posted July 30, 2005 Oceania lets you bring any beverages you want on board. On a Med cruise, we like to buy local wine in port to drink in our cabin. But they charge an astronomical $25 per bottle corkage fee if you bring your own wine to the dining room! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DEL67 Posted July 30, 2005 #10 Share Posted July 30, 2005 NCL lets you bring soda and water aboard, but they are very strict about liquor. If they find it, they make you come get your bag and confiscate it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
immargaret Posted July 30, 2005 #11 Share Posted July 30, 2005 NCL does give the consficated alcohol back the last night of the cruise... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andee Posted July 30, 2005 #12 Share Posted July 30, 2005 I prefer a glass of wine in my room after a day of sightseeing to one at the dinner table, and since I have to drink white and my husband prefers red, a bottle at dinner doesn't work for us, so that doesn't bother me.

trish1c Posted August 2, 2005 #13 Share Posted August 2, 2005 Andee -- They will recork the bottle for you & bring it back to your table each night as you ask if you want them to. Thsi is particularly helpful if what they are serving by the glass doesn't appeal to you. Trish Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
