Traveler353 Posted September 2, 2010 #3 Share Posted September 2, 2010 It is a well known fact that no one from CC smuggles booze on to Carnival ships. That is why there are so few threads on smuggling.:p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Litewait Posted September 3, 2010 #9 Share Posted September 3, 2010 from the Liberty. I checked 1 bottle of wine and they took it! Got it back the last night. Carried 2 on, just me and it went on fine. My friends packed rum runners and they got through just fine. And Miami is supposed to be the Rum Runner Freakin capitol of the US..:rolleyes: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chays99 Posted September 3, 2010 #10 Share Posted September 3, 2010 We were on the Ecstasy a couple of weeks ago and the Rum Runner made it safely to our room via our checked luggage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MszKitty Posted September 3, 2010 #11 Share Posted September 3, 2010 Was on the Paradise last weekend. 4 in our party of 10 got their rumrunners confiscated. They used the 32 oz size, a couple in each bag. Someone else in our party used the smaller 16 & 8 oz size and they made it thru fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buxfan Posted September 3, 2010 #12 Share Posted September 3, 2010 Please do a search for them. There are already a ton of threads on CC and it only entices a flame war to start. I personally am sick of "flame wars" on this site. Why are people participating in a cruise site (which should be a happy, non-confrontational subject BTW) so nasty?? I've read some very nasty replies to posts. Come ON CC folks...why agressively nasty???? People should not be afraid to post thoughts, questions, etc. here without getting flamed. Stop already!!!

Up until that point, I had told them, "I've never heard of anyone getting caught with rumrunners." I can't say that now. So don't be surprised if it happens.

zqvol Posted September 3, 2010 #19 Share Posted September 3, 2010 In spite of the myths, Rum Runners and other liquids show up on X-Rays. If your bag is X-rayed and if security wants to make an issue, a rum runner is no better or worse than just taking a bottle along. If that is what you want to do, more power to you.

Kurbanfan Posted September 3, 2010 #20 Share Posted September 3, 2010 Our rumrunners made it thru the end of May will be doing it again in Dec. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steelerjen Posted September 3, 2010 #21 Share Posted September 3, 2010 We were on the Splendor in May and had two of our Rum Runners confiscated, and prior to that we never had a problem. I believe it is the luck of the draw. Happy Cruising! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1frayfan Posted September 4, 2010 #24 Share Posted September 4, 2010 I would really be upset if one of them broke open in your bag and not only soaked the clothes in your bag, but in mine as well. :eek: Just something to think about. Why chance ruining someone else's vacation to save a few bucks.:rolleyes: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scperk Posted September 4, 2010 #25 Share Posted September 4, 2010 Have taken mine on at least a dozen cruises in my checked luggage and have had NO problems even on NCL....Pack them in your checked luggage next to your shave kit or I pack them in my wifes beach bag next to all her sunscreen........:)...Dennis Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
