Can we label a case of water and have it delivered to our stateroom?

 

If you are sailing with Carnival, the answer is no. They only allow cans on board (and only one 12-pack for each person). You can however buy a 12-pack of bottled water on board for $2.99.

 

I don't think Royal Caribbean allows you to bring any beverages on board (except for a couple of bottles of wine per stateroom). I don't know how expensive their bottled water is but I don't think it is as cheap as Carnival.

I think this would technically be "checked luggage" so the answer is no. Only 12 cans of 12 oz or less/pp carry on non alcoholic beverages allowed. :rolleyes:

Royal Caribbeans water is very expensive to buy onboard. I wish it were as cheap as Carnival! Thanks for the quick answers.

We sailed out of Baltimore on the Pride last May and will be going on her again in March. Agree it is an easy port to sail out of, but it has the LONGEST, steepest gang way I have ever experienced. I am not "old" and do not have mobility issues, but I was huffing and puffing and saying a few OH CRAPS by the time we finally got on the ship! :eek::o:confused: So be warned! :rolleyes:

 

YES to this observation! This particular gangway is long and steep, and my short legs were straining to make it to the ship! Usually I go bopping up the gangway because I am so excited to get on the ship. THIS time however (yesterday! We are currently sailing on Grandeur heading to Bermuda!) I was dragging and going much slower. The prize was still just as great though - a cruise ship on the other end of the line!!

Sailing out of Baltimore is very easy. The gangway is very long and steep but you just take your time. Also just for information the shops and casinos do not open until you are out in international waters. I am not sure what time they open on the way out but they do close around 7PM on the last night of the cruise. Enjoy your cruise.

Just sailed with RC out of Baltimore on Grandeur of the Seas around 3 weeks ago. For health purposes, I always bring onboard a 64 oz.bottle of cranberry juice. Never has anyone said one word about it. In fact, on our second day, I returned to our cabin to find that our room-attendant (unsolicited) had placed my juice in a big container of ice, which he refilled throughout the cruise.
