Duty Free Shop at the Pan American Pier?

[stones902]

Does anyone know for sure if there is a duty free shop for liquor, cigars, etc. in or near the Pan American terminal that the AOS utilizes in San Juan? I have read several posts, some of which indicate that a store exists, some not.

 

For those not aware, this is not the "regular" terminal nearest to downtown that most ships in San Juan use.

 

Your help is greatly appreciated!

Yes, there is one. My sister bought water and sodas there last April before we boarded the Serenade.

 

Enjoy!

Are the prices about the same for the booze as they are on the ship? Because it may be just as easy to buy booze on the ship and then pay the $9 "corkage" charge to take it back to your cabin.

 

Also, was the pop sold in 12-pack cans/8-pack bottles and did they have a big assortment to choose from? We like caffeine free diet pepsi and since it's not as commoin as Diet Coke, I'm thinking that we'd be better off stopping at a grocery store to find it.

Thanks, Tex

 

Hope to stock up on a few "essentials" before we sail.
