Corkage

[tarheelmjfan]

DH & I plan to take a couple bottles of Strawberry Port from a local winery. We plan to have a glass each night with dessert. Will we be charged the corkage fee every evening, or is it a 1 time fee per bottle? Thanks

On Mercury last year, there was only one corkage fee. If you didn't finish your wine with dinner, the waiter would recork it and serve it the next night. I'm assuming it would be the same for your port, but not totally sure. (We never experienced a partially used bottle) Have a great cruise!:)

You've got it right, Kay.. it's a $15 one-time charge to open the bottle [some have asked what would happen if they took along a 3 liter bottle -- interesting crowd we have here!]. We also usually take along port or dessert wines that won't be finished in a single evening. Have a bottle of 1977 Warre's that will with us on the Galaxy in December... a bit much for one sitting!

Thanks for the info. :) That's what I thought. DH thought we would have to pay each evening. I love it when I'm right!!! :p
