Rare Essiesmom Posted November 13, 2016 #2 Share Posted November 13, 2016 Welcome to Cruise Critic. I believe the information you seek is clearly stated in the FAQ on the P&O website. But for further clarification you can ask on the P&O-UK board here at CC. Located under Cruise Lines P-Z. EM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare John Bull Posted November 13, 2016 #3 Share Posted November 13, 2016 Since it is our first cruise I would like to know if we can carry alcohol on board Sent from my iPhone using Forums Yes :) P&O are different to the vast majority of cruise lines in this respect. You can take aboard any alcohol, at embarkation or at any port-of-call, without charge. Wine, beers, spirits, anything. This only for drinking in your cabin - not in public areas such as decks, bars, restaurants. P&O reserve the right to withdraw that concession, but have only been known to do so when the quantity suggests that the passenger is intent on making it a booze-cruise. But strangely you can't buy alcohol in the ship's duty-free shop for immediate consumption - alcohol purchases there are retained & can be collected on the last full day of your cruise. The timing of your question suggests the Caribbean? Don't buy at your UK airport - best value is the duty-free shops in the port at Barbados or a number of ports-of-call, though a poor selection of wines. As well as wine, we take aboard a bottle of Pimms, some lemonade & some mint. Steal some fresh fruit salad from the buffet & any time is Pimms o'clock on the balcony. :) JB :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jocap Posted November 14, 2016 #4 Share Posted November 14, 2016 Hi, and welcome! John Bull has as always given you the right answer... except that Ventura doesn't do fly/cruises any longer, just long cruises to the Caribbean and back again- 2 of those this next Jan and Feb... (and I'm on one of those again :D ) Enjoy... if there's anything you need to know about Ventura, we'll be on her for the 6th time soon... ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
