cperk97 Posted July 19, 2011 #1 Share Posted July 19, 2011 My husband loves his International Delight French Vanilla Coffee Creamer and is wondering if he needs to bring it on the ship with him. If he can bring it on the ship with him. We are sailing on the Jewel in Sept. For all I know they may even have it on the ship. Any help with this would be wonderful. Thanks so much!

MMMD Posted July 19, 2011 #2 Share Posted July 19, 2011 We were on the Jewel in January and wondered the same thing. Luckily we did bring our own International Delight (Irish Creme) because it wasn't available on the ship. I put the container in a ziploc bag and had it in my carry on, but no one even asked me what it was. Be on the safe side and bring it with you. Hope you have as great a time as we did!

AnitaVacation Posted July 19, 2011 #3 Share Posted July 19, 2011 I brought my own on my last cruise (in my checked bag).....just make sure you have a refrig....although I have seen some places where you can buy the little cups that do not require refrigeration.....also, Coffeemate (my preference) offers their flavored creamers in powder form....

erichepler Posted July 19, 2011 #4 Share Posted July 19, 2011 Carry it on in whatever way is safe to keep it from spilling. If its dry creamer you could check it too inside your luggage. I dont think you'd have any problems in your carry on with liquid creamer though as far as NCL goes. However, if you want to try a more "aggressive" creamer, use rum runners to get Kahlua and Baileys on board in your checked bags! ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rvsullivan Posted July 19, 2011 #5 Share Posted July 19, 2011 It will not be onboard. You can certainly bring your own with no problem. I assume you are not flying, as there are limits on the amount of liquids you can bring on the flight? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paulfl Posted July 19, 2011 #6 Share Posted July 19, 2011 I have yet to sail but research this completely. I have seen creamer cups (like they have in restaurants), half pint milk and low fat milk cartons, some of the bars have monin syrups if you like a frosted mint coffee for instance. If you bring your own creamer be sure to keep it cold... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare sparks1093 Posted July 19, 2011 #7 Share Posted July 19, 2011 I recall half and half and milk on the Sky. There shouldn't be a problem with bringing your own onboard, the biggest problem would be keeping liquid creamer cold but that certainly isn't insurmountable.

cperk97 Posted July 19, 2011 Author #8 Share Posted July 19, 2011 Thanks so much everyone, we really appreciate it. We will be traveling into NYC on the train the day before so no flying worries. Now to find a store close to the hotel to buy some before we board the ship. Once again Thanks! Jo Anne Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
weloverunning Posted July 19, 2011 #9 Share Posted July 19, 2011 Hey Cperk: I carry on Fat Free Vanilla Creamer. The quart doesn't fit in the fridge very well so I pour it into water bottles so it seals better and i can lay them down in the fridge. In our stores, they sell International Delight in little individual non-refrigerator cups in a box of 24 or so. They are the ones they have at gas station coffee stations. However, they do not come in fat free. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(cruise-a-holics)....anyway....I'm pretty sure that BigLots carries the boxes of the tiny flavored creamer cups from international delight.... Our last cruise out of nyc we drove down and parked right at the pier....it was about the same/cheaper than taking the train, taxi, etc....(we did take the greyhound bus once....never again)....parking at the pier is $30 day and it's so nice to just drive right up, they take your bags at the curb and when you get back, you can just hop in your car and go.....(we will also be driving to nyc for our Sept cruise)... Anyway...nice to see someone so close :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UNCBlue4Us Posted July 19, 2011 #12 Share Posted July 19, 2011 We always bring our own...no need for refrigeration. My wife likes French Vanilla and I must have my Irish Cream (also works well with a jigger of something stronger). Just throw the little thingies in your luggage. No problem.

We are taking the train down the day before and taking the girls to a Yankee game. Hotel is 2 blocks from the pier so we will be walking over to the ship.

cruise pup Posted July 21, 2011 #16 Share Posted July 21, 2011 I thought I was the only fanatic who needed to bring his own coffee lightener. I just take a small bottle of the generic non-fat creamer. The only trouble is I keep leaving it at my table and then have to run back to the dining room. Fortunately it always turns up at the table or the maitre d's desk. But it really improves on the taste of most cruise ship coffee. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jo Anne We are cruising nyc to Bermuda on Sept 27 (on ccl)....we got such a fantastic deal, we couldnt say no........this is our first year cruising with carnival....so, in June, we took a quick 4 day cruise nyc to canada to test it out.....so, I've been on Carnival, RC and NCL....and honestly, they seem to all be about the same.....I will say, what I like about Carnival....each adult can carry on a bottle of wine and each person can bring 12 non-alcoholic (soda/water/juice) onboard....and also, with carnival, you can order a bottle of liquor for your stateroom....yes, I paid $40 for a bottle of beefeaters gin, but it was less than I would have spent at the bar and brought home what I didnt drink....and the other thing I like about Carnival....the size of a standard cabin is 185sf....NCL cabins tend to be small..... We went on the Jewel last fall...nyc to Florida, Nassau and the private island....we went down via greyhound....never again... Let me know how the train ride goes.....that was the way we planned this next trip, but since it's so easy to drive and park at the pier, hubby decided we would drive down in Sept...that will cost us $240 in parking + gas...but a whole lot of convenience (not having to go to the train station and lug our bags and get a taxi, etc)....
