drbabe Posted August 12, 2022 #1 Share Posted August 12, 2022 I hardly drink any alcohol, but I do drink a lot of water, for medical reasons, and am very particular about the taste. It looks as if we're limited to 12 seventeen oz bottles per stateroom - I figure that most people bring soda, but I would like to bring water. How strict are they about this? I'd prefer to bring on a few gallon bottles of purified water, or barring that, a 24 pack of 17 oz bottles/stateroom ( but I hate using those single-serve bottles). Do I need an MD note in order to bring on the water in gallons? Has anyone run into a problem recently, or has anyone been able to bring on more, or differently packaged, non-alcoholic beverages/water? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brevardcruiser Posted August 12, 2022 #2 Share Posted August 12, 2022 We brought a 24 pack on the oasis last March and no one questioned or even asked me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rockmom Posted August 12, 2022 #3 Share Posted August 12, 2022 I think you may get varied answers, but remember, whatever you end up bringing, you must carry it on with you--and continue to carry it around with you until rooms are ready. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drbabe Posted August 12, 2022 Author #4 Share Posted August 12, 2022 Good point. I imagine that I'll put it in my second rolling suitcase, and send it up to my room. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Supposed to be Carry on yourself. Multiple times have seen Suitcases held up with Soda or Water not getting to Cabin right away, sent to naughty table where you have to retrieve Bag. Might get away with it but Luck. My last Cruises out of MIA and Boston they did count carry on Bottles, but if you have more some split them up having you and another each carry 12 or less Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But that is what I'm trying to say--you can't 'send it up to your room'. That's no longer an option. You need to hang on to it/carry it/wheel it, until rooms are ready. If you choose late boarding, like 2 pm, that way you could take it right to your room and not have to lug it around. Rooms have been opening up by 2 pm, and many times a little earlier. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For us, it is not worth the effort. we just buy water onboard. Edited August 12, 2022 by BirdTravels 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HicksRA Posted August 12, 2022 #8 Share Posted August 12, 2022 If there’s two of you (or more), I’d consider each bringing a 12 pack and checking in separately. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
