thomarvin Posted November 23, 2015 #2 Share Posted November 23, 2015 FALSE. you can bring the soda but you must carry it on and it must be in cans. Bottles no longer allowed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vwrestler171 Posted November 23, 2015 #3 Share Posted November 23, 2015 Must be in carry on or it will be confiscated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Denisomo Posted November 27, 2015 #4 Share Posted November 27, 2015 Not true, the 12 packs can stay in the box they came in , they will open them at security and check them . We just got off a cruise with six people and we brought on six twelve packs no problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dallas52 Posted November 27, 2015 #5 Share Posted November 27, 2015 Guess you have gone now but hope you carried them on in cans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Who Cares? Posted November 27, 2015 #6 Share Posted November 27, 2015 FALSE. you can bring the soda but you must carry it on and it must be in cans. Bottles no longer allowed. Except for wine. Still authorized is 1 750ml bottle of wine per passenger 21 years or older. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
poison7fl Posted November 28, 2015 #7 Share Posted November 28, 2015 OK, I need Powerade for dehydration, and they don't sell cans of it... I don't drink Gatorade or anything with artificial sweeteners. Any ideas? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't drink Gatorade or anything with artificial sweeteners. Any ideas? If you are dehydrated the BEST solution is good old fashioned water. And out of the tap it is free on the ship.

Yes, it is great, but I really need more than what it in water to replace what I lose in sweat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PanamaKay Posted November 29, 2015 #13 Share Posted November 29, 2015 I use a product made by Emergencee, the folks who make the powdered vitamin c. The product I use is called Electromix. It is sodium free, calorie free and sugar fee. It has a slight lemon lime flavor. You just take a packet and dump it into a bottle of water, shake it up and drink it. Works really well. You can buy it very inexpensively on Amazon.com. Also carrying around these small packets is a lot easier than lugging around bottles of Gatorade.

factotumdeb Posted November 29, 2015 #14 Share Posted November 29, 2015 not sure if this is applicable because I don't drink powerade, but the carnival faq's section also states that cartons are allowed. some drinks come in cartons that may not be packaged in cans :) "A small quantity of non-alcoholic beverages (i.e., sparkling water, sodas, juice, and milk) packaged in cans or cartons may be brought onboard on embarkation day and must be in the guest's carry-on luggage. A small quantity is considered a maximum of 12 sealed, unopened cans/cartons of 12 ounces each or less per person." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't drink Gatorade or anything with artificial sweeteners. Any ideas? Get powdered PowerAde then mix in the 12 packs of water the ship can deliver to your cabin for $2.99/12 pack. For that price it's not worth toting it aboard.:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kelkel2 Posted November 29, 2015 #16 Share Posted November 29, 2015 Just a quick question... So they will completely open your 12 pack? Do they tape it back up for you so it's easy to carry on? My husband was going to carry on a 12 pack of pepsi for me, but we weren't going to put it in anything, just carry the box. If they open it, that makes it a little difficult to carry...

If it looks tampered with in any way they very well might open it up to look. And no, they will not carry tape for you to tape it back up with. Edited November 29, 2015 by Who Cares?

Yes ours would be un-tampered with, I have no intention of messing with it, I just want my Pepsi! I may even see if there's a drug store near POM that sells the 6 pack cans! I really don't need 12...

In NOLA, they will typically cut open every 12 pack box to make sure it is all soda in there. I think they do have a roll of packing tape nearby, but we carry ours and in rolling luggage.

Denisomo Posted December 1, 2015 #21 Share Posted December 1, 2015 They will open your 12 pack and check every can as they did ours in Galveston but they were neat about it and put it all back and nothing fell out, I guess we were lucky. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have been on 8 cruises and always bring 2 12 packs of pepsi, nobody has ever opened them. One time they were in my roll on bag and went through the scanner, nobody even opened the bag to see the 12 packs. It could have been beer for all they knew. But I dont drink, so its always pepsi.

travelnteach64 Posted December 1, 2015 #23 Share Posted December 1, 2015 When we sailed with Royal our rooms were not ready into the afternoon. If there a potential we might be stuck carrying sodas around? That doesn't sound desirable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hubby had unopened 12 pack of Pepsi and yes they opened ours and checked each can. They then put them back and taped the carton. So yes, they may open even it looks like it has not been opened. This was at the Baltimore port. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
