TinkyPatz Posted September 9, 2010 #1 Share Posted September 9, 2010 Hello all! I'm leaving on the Liberty from POM on 9/11, I was packing some snack foods that I must have :o like Twizzlers, ginger snaps, other cookies, and such. To save packing space, I removed the snacks from their original packages and put them in ziplock bags. They are going on the checked luggage, not in carry-on. Has anybody brought unsealed food on their checked luggage, on embarkation? And if so, did you have any problems? Thanks in advance! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kicia Posted September 9, 2010 #2 Share Posted September 9, 2010 I always take peanuts and/or goldfish and I put them in zip lock bags also. We haven't had any problems with that and we'll be doing it again this weekend. You should be fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
firefly333 Posted September 9, 2010 #3 Share Posted September 9, 2010 You can bring them ON the ship ...but cant bring them in ziplocks OFF the ship in ports. If you want snacks in the ports, you might also bring some sealed packs with you. It against the law in most ports to bring unsealed food off the ship.

glrounds Posted September 9, 2010 #4 Share Posted September 9, 2010 No problem bringing them ONBOARD . . . big problem taking them OFF THE SHIP in ports. Snacks should be in original sealed packages only when doing that. Every country and port has its own ecological balance. Bringing "foreign" foods into their ecological environment has the potential of reeking havoc. (e.g., the fruit fly in So Cal) :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TinkyPatz Posted September 9, 2010 Author #5 Share Posted September 9, 2010 Thanks you guys! not bringing them off the ship, just candy for the room, because, well, I'm a candy junkie :o I just know that you can't bring unsealed beverages, so I was wondering about food, however it will be on checked-in luggage. I also wanted to thank you firefly for all the early saver/fcc questions you have answered for me, I feel like I should pay you a financial advisor fee :p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
