sunnyd2day Posted December 11, 2008 #1 Share Posted December 11, 2008 Hi everybody! I know that the cruise line lets you take a bottle per person of wine and cham. Does anybody have a recommendation of the best way to pack bottles in suit cases for air travel... I'd hate to have one break in our bags on the way, but we'd like to take a special bottle with us for your anniversary and wondered how the best way to get it there was. Also any suggestions on the best things to do off the ship in Costa Rica and Panama. We'd like to join a group on the ship to do something instead of paying Carnival's outragous prices! Thanks!

If you have to fly with it, I'd suggest putting bottles in large ziplocks (in case they break), then bubble wrap. I believe some folks just put them in the middle of their clothing, in a suitcase that is well filled so there is no movement inside. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cruisinbuddy Posted December 11, 2008 #4 Share Posted December 11, 2008 When you get to FLL, go to Total Wines on Cordova, I think, and buy it there. That's what I'm doing. Any cabbie will know where it is. After we check into the hotel, the 3 guys are going to go while the women folk relax by the pool. Then I've got some neuprine (SP) sleeves for them and then some bubble wrap and finally BIG ziplock bags. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LizaMM Posted December 12, 2008 #6 Share Posted December 12, 2008 I saw these neat wine bottle shaped bubble wrap packages made specifically for traveling with wine. I think it was in Solutions cat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nolaAlive Posted December 12, 2008 #8 Share Posted December 12, 2008 Total Wine has a HUGE selection at very good prices. There is a Publix in the same plaza. http://www.totalwine.com/StoreList.aspx?state=FL&store=904 I like the neoprene wine sleeves for transportation Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
