MaiTaiMary Posted October 20, 2017 #1 Share Posted October 20, 2017 (edited) I read somewhere that the rules are different when embarking in Europe. Does anybody know if it's the standard "one wine bottle per adult"? thanks Edited October 20, 2017 by MaiTaiMary typo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pcvtmom Posted October 20, 2017 #2 Share Posted October 20, 2017 On our Carnival med cruise, we could've brought wine on in every port of call. They didn't blink an eye! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BroSly88 Posted October 20, 2017 #3 Share Posted October 20, 2017 We bought alcohol while in port on our carnival med cruise last year and also had no one say anything about it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crzndeb Posted October 20, 2017 #4 Share Posted October 20, 2017 Last year on the Vista, everybody brought alcohol on in every port. I think this had to do with the big screw up on the VAT tax, after Turkey was dropped (non EU port). That may not be the case in the future.

stargate fan Posted October 21, 2017 #5 Share Posted October 21, 2017 I read somewhere that the rules are different when embarking in Europe. Does anybody know if it's the standard "one wine bottle per adult"? thanks We sailed Vista Transatlantic from Barcelona one year ago. (I can't believe it's been a whole year already! :eek:) Between the two of us, we carried on six bottles of wine and two bottles of alcohol. We also bought and carried on more wine and alcohol at one of the ports. We had the smallest bar bill of any of our cruises.:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But u could bring one bottle per person embarkment You must have been on one of the earlier Med cruises (or didn't leave from Barcelona). Did you visit any non EU countries? I was on the last 2 Med cruises and TA and brought wine and alcohol on in several ports. In fact, leaving from Barcelona, the duty free liquor store is after security. Several people dropped off things in their cabin and went back to the store to load up more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sunlite Posted October 21, 2017 #8 Share Posted October 21, 2017 We were on Vista in Barcelona and could bring in alcohol, as much as we wanted. They had a liquor store in the port, steps away from boarding- after security. Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Liquor store in the port, right near the check in desk NOTE: They DO NOT sell bottles of liquor or cigarettes on these cruises Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
