raiderg68 Posted January 27, 2012 #1 Share Posted January 27, 2012 On the Splendor in 3 weeks. Can we bring soda and/or water back on the boat in either place ? I know alcohol is a NO but was hoping to replenish these items. Any info would be greatly appreciated. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CruiserBruce Posted January 27, 2012 #2 Share Posted January 27, 2012 Why would you want to bring water? The water on board is some of the best water- both in taste and purity- you can get. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for the info on the water. I will think twice about that. Now if I do decide I want to bring water or soda back on can I ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
househunter Posted January 27, 2012 #4 Share Posted January 27, 2012 It depends on the cruiseline- which one are you talking about? The poster above is correct, water is free on all of the cruiselines. There is no need to purchase any. Just have your cabin steward keep your ice bucket full and use the tap in the room. Everywhere else on the ship you can get water as well, from your waiter, a bartender or in the windjammer and lots of other areas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cruizinator Posted January 27, 2012 #5 Share Posted January 27, 2012 Thanks for the info on the water. I will think twice about that. Now if I do decide I want to bring water or soda back on can I ? I've done it several times on the Spirit and Splendor. ..I've always kept it to 6 bottles/cans or less..never had a problem. On my last cruise in October..did see a passenger with 4 6-packs of soda get it confiscated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I came up with the same plan yesterday,,we go in April. I was going to follow the rules and bring 12 cans of soda and 12 bottles of water and replenish them from the Walmart in PV.

Ashland Posted January 28, 2012 #10 Share Posted January 28, 2012 I never had a problem with bringing my unopened cokes (yummy with real sugar) from Walmart in PV back on the ship ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Hlitner Posted January 28, 2012 #11 Share Posted January 28, 2012 Unfortunately, the OP has decided to cruise on RCI (used to be our favorite cruise line). RCI has the toughest industry policy when it comes to liquids which is simply you are not permitted to bring any liquid beverage back on board. Whether or not this is enforced is always an open question but as a matter of policy they even object to your bringing bottled water on their ships. We think their philosophy is why should they let your bring the stuff aboard when they can charge your excessive prices +15%. I mention this because other cruise lines have no problem with bringing soda, water, and sometimes even wine aboard. So, when you are docked here in PV (our winter home) you could easily walk over to Walmart or south to Soriano and buy cheap bottled water or pop, but they might confiscate it when you return to the ship.
