OrlandoGirl57 Posted August 11, 2014 #76 Share Posted August 11, 2014 Multiple times success. I remove the pouch from the box and place it in a ziplock bag within my checked luggage. Bumping...any recent successes or failures with boxed wine? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elliair Posted August 11, 2014 #77 Share Posted August 11, 2014 I'm not concerned with where to buy it, I want to know if people have had success bringing it on board...preferably, in their checked bags :eek: Yes, take the bag out of the box and place in a 2-gallon zip lock. We placed it among our clothing. The small boxes fit nicely into tennis shoes. We carry on 2 bottles with screw top lids. When we finish one bottle we pour the bagged wine into the empty bottle. Haven't had a problem yet in all the cruises we've taken. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LynnAnne Posted August 11, 2014 #78 Share Posted August 11, 2014 I don't even take wine out of box. Why would I? I'm aloud so much per person so no problem carrying it on ship! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skyeman27 Posted August 18, 2014 #79 Share Posted August 18, 2014 Do you have to hide the box of wine from the room steward? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LynnAnne Posted August 18, 2014 #80 Share Posted August 18, 2014 No, We leave it right out! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LynnAnne Posted August 18, 2014 #81 Share Posted August 18, 2014 Do you have to hide the box of wine from the room steward? If I knew how to put a picture on here I could show you how our box wine sat on the mirror shelf. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
susan1957 Posted August 15, 2016 #82 Share Posted August 15, 2016 Ah! So I'm wrong in my policies! Hm... Time to hunt for a smaller box, methinks! A friend of mine cruises every year for last 10 years....they take 2 if not 3 boxes of wine (3 litres each) in their luggage and have NEVER had it taken away ....

Micahs Grandad Posted August 15, 2016 #83 Share Posted August 15, 2016 We used to do this with 3 liter box and were successful 9 out of 10 times. Stopped doing this only because we dont drink as much as we used to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rulers Mom Posted August 15, 2016 #84 Share Posted August 15, 2016 I've never unboxed it. BotaBox is pretty good and the box isn't flashy. Kind of a plain brown wrapper. I always pack it down by the wheels and under my bottles of shampoo, lotions, and cosmetics. If there's a liquid alarm, they see those thing and never have taken our box. There's a convenience store right by the port in Seattle that sells plenty of boxes for Alaska sailings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hftmrock Posted August 16, 2016 #85 Share Posted August 16, 2016 just to reiterate to the OP , you MUST carry it on and not pack it in your luggage. The reasons are obvious. They will keep it if they find it because they dont know if you also carried on It might break and your clothes and the clothes of others could be ruined its against the rules Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
