gardn198 Posted March 25, 2017 #1 Share Posted March 25, 2017 I'm planning a bachelorette party and wanted to have some cute waterbottles made for the trip to take to shore and stuff. Is this not allowed? I know disposable water bottles are not, but what about the kind you can reuse and walk around the ship with? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loudermont Posted March 25, 2017 #2 Share Posted March 25, 2017 We used our Yeti tumblers without issues. I don't think they have restrictions about empty drinking bottles, I believe it's more a focus on bringing unauthorized liquids. Have had the pleasure to enjoy: Carnival Celebration 07 Carnival Victory 16 Carnival Valor 17 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cruiser Fam4 Posted March 25, 2017 #3 Share Posted March 25, 2017 I was able to bring my stainless steeel reusable one. The yeti one. Hope this helps! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Organized Chaos Posted March 25, 2017 #4 Share Posted March 25, 2017 Yeah, we brought the sport bottle kind. Maybe 10" tall or so, have a folding sip spout and a finger grip handle on the lid. We filled them with our favorite free drink and carried them around a lot. We never took them off the ship with us, though. If you do, I'd imagine the crew would want to have a look/smell inside when you come back on board to make sure you don't have alcohol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can bring as many empty refillable beverage containers as you want. You just can't bring any bottles (except wine) with beverages already in them.

bwellen Posted March 25, 2017 #6 Share Posted March 25, 2017 As others have said you can bring as many water bottles as you want but they MUST be empty. My wife had about 3 ounces of water left in her water bottle and they made her dump the water out. Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jjduck Posted March 25, 2017 #7 Share Posted March 25, 2017 Disclaimer: Sounds like an odd question, even to me (LOL!), but just to clarify/double check/wonder...any issue with bringing mouthwash and after shave in plastic bottles that are partially filled? We are boarding the Legend from home (Honolulu) and instead of buying new stuff, thought we would just bring what we are already using (esp. since no air flight involved). Just want to be prepared. thanks for any info! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just want to be prepared. thanks for any info! We didn't have any issues last time. We drive to port instead of fly too, so we'll once again be bringing an already opened bottle of mouthwash with us on our next cruise in April. ⛴🍹🌞 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cb at sea Posted March 25, 2017 #9 Share Posted March 25, 2017 Yes indeed, you may bring your refillable bottles. When returning from ports, you will have to empty them before boarding, but that's no biggie! And yes...you can bring opened bottles of personal products!

evandbob Posted March 25, 2017 #10 Share Posted March 25, 2017 The main issue with refillable water bottles is that some people disregard the posted warnings and attempt to fill their bottle directly from a water or juice dispenser in the buffet area. There are designated filling stations for these refillable containers, or one can use a clean glass with the dispenser, and then transfer the liquid to their personal bottle. The idea is to not have any part of a used container come into contact or proximity with a public dispensing tube. If improper use is seen by a Carnival employee, they are supposed to shut down the contaminated dispenser, disinfect it, and then let it resume service.

We too take Tervis tumblers with us and use these both on and off the ship. However, PLEASE do not fill your drinking containers of any kind from the same dispenser everyone else uses to get their drinks from. One "bump" from the mouth piece on your container and you just risked passing on anything you may have picked up on to a bunch of others! This is how a lot of people get sick. I always take a clean glass and fill it, then dump that into my Tervis. In addition, I hand wash our glasses and lids with soap and hot water at least once a day in our room and let them air dry on the counter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are designated filling stations for these refillable containers, or one can use a clean glass with the dispenser, and then transfer the liquid to their personal bottle. So I can take my large tumbler to a designated station and fill it with juice? I like my juice and I want to fill it in the morning to last throughout the day. But I don't relish the thought of filling my tumbler four or five times with a glass from the Lido buffet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SNJCruisers Posted March 25, 2017 #19 Share Posted March 25, 2017 Start relishing.....The designated stations are for water. If you want juice for your quart tumbler, you'll need three fills with a plastic glass from Lido...Or do without...Or purchase Cheers and get a cold juice at anytime at any bar.

Rats. :mad: If you want juice for your quart tumbler, you'll need three fills with a plastic glass from Lido... Will I be holding a line up if I do it all at once? Or do without...Or purchase Cheers and get a cold juice at anytime at any bar. I'm getting Cheers anyway. Can I get a mango or guava juice at a bar? I didn't think you could. That's why I wanted to fill a large tumbler. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will I be holding a line up if I do it all at once? The busiest times at the drink fountains will obviously be during meal times, but I don't ever recall lines being that long. Maybe a few people at the most. There's more than one fountain going during the busy periods. If you're trying to fill your larger container and someone else comes up, you can always let them go ahead and finish yours after. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lesliekelle13 Posted September 15, 2019 #23 Share Posted September 15, 2019 So if I bring my tumbler and have a cheers drink package, will they fill my tumbler with juice or will I have to get a plastic glass filled with juice then dump that in my tumbler?

We prebuy coke thru the carnival web site. I always get a 6 pack of zero and a 12 pack of water. It is in our room when we get onboard. The fridge keeps them cold and we have our one a day. Six packs are $10 and a 12 pack of predelivered water bottles is $4.50. Keep hydrated! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any EMPTY container is allowed. reason for full water bottles not allowed. So many filled them with gin, rum and alike. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
