csteck Posted May 5, 2004 #2 Share Posted May 5, 2004 I have brought my own soda and bottled water on several cruises. We have even bought sodas in the ports and brought them back on ship. No one has ever stopped us and there are no rules against it. My brother has packed beer in his suitcase, Checked bags, without problems but this is against the rules. We have brought our own wine for a special occassion without problems to. We did not hide this and we had our dining room staff chill the wine for us and we paid the corking fee. Good luck and enjoy your cruise. Carla Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrTeddy Posted May 5, 2004 #3 Share Posted May 5, 2004 I've seen ppl carrying cases of sodas so I suppose there is no problem hiding in suitcases. Rhapsody of the Seas - 2/23/03 Rhapsody of the Seas - 8/22/04 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smile0808 Posted May 5, 2004 #4 Share Posted May 5, 2004 Bring a collapsible cooler, cabin steward refreshes ice each day and your drinks will be icey cold. I also bring bottled water. I would put the soda in zip lock bag . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jean-lynd Posted May 5, 2004 #5 Share Posted May 5, 2004 We always bring a 12 pack of Caffeine Free Diet Pepsi in our luggage. We have the cabin steward remove the contents of the refrigerator and keep our soda in there. It works out great. I hope this helps!

sshuttle Posted May 5, 2004 #6 Share Posted May 5, 2004 Hello fellow Diet Caffiene Free Pepsi drinker , or as my husband calls it DCFP. Did you just ask them and they removed it no problem? I plan on bringing plenty on board as well as water, but wasn't sure about the fridge situation.

trouble48746 Posted May 5, 2004 #7 Share Posted May 5, 2004 We always take our own soda and bottled water. We have carried it in the open and they never say anything. Cabin steward kept our ice bucket filled. We have giant travel mugs that we fill and carry around the ship with us. 1997 Majesty of the Seas 1998 Sovereign of the Seas 2000 Radiance of the Seas 2003 Grandeur of the Seas 2004 Voyager of the Seas Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gene624 Posted May 6, 2004 #8 Share Posted May 6, 2004 I have never had a problem. Pack liquor in my checked luggage. For consumption in my suite. I have bought sodas on shore and carried it on board. Gene in Birmingham Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
reggierail Posted May 6, 2004 #9 Share Posted May 6, 2004 I had a friend who packed a couple of 6 packs of soda in the checked baggage. Several cans popped and the dry cleaning bill was over $100. So much for saving a few bucks.

sshuttle Posted May 6, 2004 #10 Share Posted May 6, 2004 I put them in their own suitcase. I think I'll buy one of those softside rolling coolers. Beware of juice boxes, they puncture really easy, luckly it was just all over the water and soda so easily washable.
