Taking alcohol onboard

[GABY1]

Quick question can I take a bottle of baileys for in cabin use onboard? Sailing out of Southampton, only done one past p&o cruise from Barbados in 2013 & we could then, but not sure if things have changed. Tia

Certainly can, was on Ventura few weeks ago and took two bottles of vodka and bottle of champagne with no probs, only difference now is they stock your in cabin fridge so you have to ask cabin steward to take them away to fit your own drink in haha

This is what it says on the P&O website:

 

We will generally allow a small, reasonable amount to be taken on-board for you to enjoy in your cabin however, taking bottles of alcohol into restaurants or lounges will incur a corkage fee of £15 (prices are subject to change) per item (any size) per occasion.

 

Should you wish to take alcohol on-board to celebrate an event, the number of bottles you may take, will be at the port authorities' discretion and you will be charged a corkage fee.

 

We reserve the right to confiscate alcohol at the gangway, which may be destroyed. Anyone under the age of 18 (under 21 when in United States of America waters) will not be served alcoholic beverages on-board and must not be in possession of alcohol. Guests may be asked to verify their age. It is prohibited to attempt to purchase alcohol for those under 18 in the bars and shops on-board. 16 and 17 year olds may be bought beer, cider or wine to drink with a meal in the restaurant when accompanied by a parent/guardian.

 

Alcoholic beverages consumed in the public areas on-board will be subject to the corkage charge.
