schazzy Posted July 27, 2018 #2 Share Posted July 27, 2018 :confused:Once we get onto the ship, can I purchase a bottle of vodka to be delievered to our cabin?:confused: I believe you can order it from Room Service. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elcuchio24 Posted July 27, 2018 #3 Share Posted July 27, 2018 order in ahead of time, and it will be waiting in your room when you arrive. We do it with a bottle of Gin, everytime.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We do this, couple bottles of wine in carry on, few more in checked luggage....few bottles of soda/tonic water........and we are a-ok! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lccruiser Posted July 27, 2018 Author #5 Share Posted July 27, 2018 We have purchased online many times, but I noticed they charge tax and delivery of almost $20.00. I was just looking to save those fees and order from room service Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was just looking to save those fees and order from room service Room Service will charge a 15% gratuity, the same percentage as the delivery fee. You will be charged tax if you purchase it while in US waters at the rate charged for the state you are in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We do this, couple bottles of wine in carry on, few more in checked luggage....few bottles of soda/tonic water........and we are a-ok! So to be clear... You take your allotted 1 bottle of wine PP in a carry on, then you also take another 1 bottle PP in your luggage. Then I'm assuming the only thing that happens with the wine in your luggage is you get called down to the naughty room to explain "you forgot to put in your carry on" and they let you take your wine and go on your merry way?

Asking for a friend ;) We usually put 3-4 bottles in checked luggage. Never been called to the naughty room yet in 10+ CCL sailings. Some will say its immoral, haha, I could care less. But its always been a good option for us! And, they are typically $10 bottles......if they take them or whatever, who cares. Happy sailing!

ddgg Posted July 28, 2018 #9 Share Posted July 28, 2018 On my last cruise (I flew to the port), I forgot to switch the one bottle of wine from my checked bag to my carry on. It was confiscated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was just looking to save those fees and order from room service The delivery fee has been explained and if you want to avoid the tax just select "deliver the 1st night" and tax shouldn't be charged (and if it still appears select "deliver second day"). We selected deliver the 1st night and didn't pay tax and the bottle was in the cabin waiting for us when we boarded. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seagull7 Posted July 28, 2018 #12 Share Posted July 28, 2018 save a ton of money and use a rum runner in your checked bags. Never an issue. What is a "rum runner" that you can put in your luggage? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robc1972 Posted July 28, 2018 #13 Share Posted July 28, 2018 What is a "rum runner" that you can put in your luggage? Plastic flasks sold on Amazon for getting booze past security in your luggage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Asking for a friend ;) Yes, you can take your allotted bottle in carry on. Yes, you can put more in checked bag Yes, you may or may not be called to naughty room (depends on whether your bag is locked and you are needed to open it) No, you may not take the bottles in checked bag after apologizing and be on your merry way. They toss it and you are not compensated. Yes, it may make it by their inspection. Or it may not. Just be fully prepared to lose it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ya, thats why we just throw a few $9 bottles in checked luggage...if they get chucked out, who cares? Again, I have let to have a single one found, probably done it 6-7 times Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
angiei812 Posted August 6, 2018 #18 Share Posted August 6, 2018 Good morning! So if I purchase a bottle of gin and some tonic water to be delivered to my room, then do I have to do all my drinking in my room? How do I get to enjoy the beverage I just purchased at the pool for example? Also thinking about those who pack the Rum Runner into your suitcase, then what do you do with it? Just drink in your room? Thanks!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We usually use those big Bubba Mugs which are insulated and they sell them in sizes that capacity to the obscene. We have 24oz ones which work fine. Mix in your room and take it with you. As far as the rumrunners go...no one is going to know/care if you bought from roomservice/rumrunnered it/filled a big mug with icewater. No one is going to ask or bother you about that. Enjoy!
