bubba3197 Posted December 18, 2022 #1 Share Posted December 18, 2022 Royal allows 2 types of drinks to be brought on board, per cabin: 2 bottles of wine (or champagne) 12 bottles of water (or soda) From the description, it says that both of these need to be in your carry-on on boarding day (i.e. not in the checked bags). Is that correct, or would I be able to put some of these in the checked baggage? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sunshine3601 Posted December 19, 2022 #4 Share Posted December 19, 2022 Carry on...check in around 1 pm then drop off everything in your cabin as they are usually available around 1ish. Then you don't have to carry heavy items around for a couple of hours. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare ORV Posted December 19, 2022 #5 Share Posted December 19, 2022 (edited) Are plastic bottles ok? Seems I read somewhere that sodas should be in cans. Edited December 19, 2022 by ORV Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ATSEAMYLIFE Posted December 19, 2022 #6 Share Posted December 19, 2022 Read that some people have slapped luggage tags on water and sent it with the porters. For us it was easier to just buy a few cans to have in the cabin and then with the drink package I just stocked up during the day and took them back to the cabin, which I did also with beers. I was always able to get extra unopened cans of beer to take back. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cublet Posted December 19, 2022 #14 Share Posted December 19, 2022 Hello, This side of the pond, Southampton, you leave the stuff suitably labelled with your 'hold luggage' and it is taken on board with your cases. Regards, Cublet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare HappyTexan44 Posted December 19, 2022 #15 Share Posted December 19, 2022 I've been giving some thought to logistics of our carry-on. We will have 4 bottles of wine (two rooms) and a 12-pack of Diet DP. That will get pretty heavy. I was originally thinking of dragging out one of those wheeled fold-up luggage things from before luggage had wheels. But, now I am thinking it will be more secure to use a wheeled luggage as carry-on that I normally use as checked luggage, and carefully packing everything in there. Putting in the wine, sodas, daughter's medicine, swimsuits, and enough extra clothes for padding. Could even add bubble-wrap. This dropping all the checked luggage off with a porter is a game-changer from flying since we don't need to worry about restrictions or the luggage being abused.

DH vastly prefers DP. I am particular about my wine. They are likely to have the same quality of wine that I'd bring onboard, but not the precise thing I want. For example, I'm likely to bring a Natural Rose Champagne, they won't have that and they'd try to talk me into a big name Champagne that was neither Natural or Rose. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My wife also prefers diet dr pepper, but would rather enjoy a coke zero than carrying on drinks. Each to his own. Enjoy your cruise. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare HappyTexan44 Posted December 19, 2022 #22 Share Posted December 19, 2022 I so wish our ship had the freestyle machines! Voyager doesn't have them. We are very familiar with them from visiting Six Flags and Universal Orlando. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

poocher Posted December 19, 2022 #24 Share Posted December 19, 2022 No, guns do not, only the freestyle machines. You must have a package (soda, refreshment, or DBP) with the souvenir cup to access. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cublet Posted December 20, 2022 #25 Share Posted December 20, 2022 Hello, OK so some years ago but the Navigator was using the gun to fill soda package souvenir cups - what they said they could not do was fill from cans/bottles.
