When in an aft, he returns with extras ‘just in case’, so he doesn’t need to make the long walk again 🤣 That's exactly what Mike does. 🍹🍸🍷 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CruisingHogFan Posted January 16, 2021 #55 Share Posted January 16, 2021 Spend$1,000s on a cruise but too cheap to follow the rules and buy drinks like the rest of us 😂🙄 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Travelling2Some Posted January 16, 2021 #56 Share Posted January 16, 2021 Helpful hints if you do like to smuggle: (1) buy the highest proof liquor sold because volume matters and you can use less. (2) Double bag each rum runner in zip-lock freezer bags just in case. You can put the little ones in your packed shoes for extra protection. (3) Do NOT put electronics or anything suspicious looking in the same checked bag. (4) Order juice from room service at breakfast and put it in your fridge for later. (5) Mix vodka with Kahlua and then mix that with the soft serve vanilla ice cream. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

First, I usually buy the package now as it's just easier and I like the coffees and specialty juices, too. In the past, I used the clear plastic rum runners stuffed into snorkel fins without ever being sent to naughty room. Since you mentioned wine, I'll share that I've been able to get 4 bottles of wine on-board by going through 2 separate security lines, if that's your drink of choice. I liked it for the cabin, but, still would buy cocktails when I felt like it. One port strategy that I've used is to send your backpack with 2 bottles purchased in port through the machine. They'll see it on xray, maybe look in bag and direct you to go to the table to check your duty-free in for last day pick-up. Turn in just one bottle and continue onto the ship. No further bag check is done. Edited January 20, 2021 by Steeler Nation At Sea 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ilovetotravel1977 Posted January 20, 2021 #67 Share Posted January 20, 2021 This thread reminds of my first cruise back in 2007 on Majesty of the Seas. A three night party cruise with three of us girls going for a long weekend and wanted to bring on booze. I found a company that specialized in gift baskets that they would send to cruise ships, kind of like a Bon Voyage type of gift. I gifted our cabin 4 bottles of vodka, each was nicely wrapped and in a cello basket. They even put a card in it telling us to enjoy our cruise LOL When we got back from the muster drill, it was in our cabin waiting for us. I think we only had to pay a couple of dollars more for each bottle. We went to one Royal's private islands and brought a bottle off the ship with us. Since we had a soda package, that covered our mixes. Those were the days! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually, we have never rum runned before, and have gotten the drink package for years (for both people in room, even during the time they didn’t require it).
