Taking wine OFF of the ship?

[CruizCuz]

During embarkation, I will be bringing on my bottle of wine, and my husband will as well. We are also planning on purchasing the Cheers program. So my question is this: Can we take one or both of the bottles of wine off the ship when we debark at HMC? Wine spritzers sound nice, and since the Cheers program doesn't work on the private island, this would help, since we are already paying a LOT of money for Cheers. Has anyone done this? Thank you!

Been there, done that. We did not have a problem :D

Won't be a problem. Just don't advertise that you are taking your own wine off ship by holding it up in the air while proclaiming how drunk you are going to get. :D

you can also do the 'reverse smuggle' and order your beers unopened from the bar and take the to the island.

Thanks for asking that. We took a cooler off at Princess Cays full of Budweiser and had no problem. Like others said, did not advertise it. Planning on the same for HMC.

 

I believe the only problem or concern would be the glass bottle on the beach.

Glass or cans, please put trash in the trash can. :)

Oh I agree with that and I meant by glass bottle...what if it were to break. We too aluminum cans and yes...threw them in the trash.

No way, beer is much cheaper on the islands than the ship

Thank you ALL for the responses! I didn't think about the "glass" container issue. We could simply pour the white wine into another container, for example, one of our large insulated mugs. That way nothing to break, and nothing to throw away. It just sounds refreshing to make white wine spritzers on the island, with fruit that will be in our cabana. Also, doesn't add to our Cheers bar bill.

Not at HMC as the OP was asking about. There is no beer other than what is provided by Carnival at the same price as on board.

Beer is definitely a lot cheaper on Princess ship during happy hour...buy 1 get 1 free...this is why we took it off of the ship on the private island. For same price, we just buy it on the island.
