crazyboys Posted February 6, 2013 #1 Share Posted February 6, 2013 We have eleven in our group (5 of which are small boys) on Magic 3/10/2013, Eastern Caribbean. We plan on carrying on our normal carry-on rolling suitcases with our sodas, mixers, water, etc. I also plan, as others in our group, to have a back pack or shoulder bag with our wine, etc. Is there a limit to how many carry-on pieces we can take on board during check-in? We are doing the FTTF so we plan on dropping everything off in the cabin shortly after check in. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Turbo6ta Posted February 6, 2013 #2 Share Posted February 6, 2013 I also plan, as others in our group, to have a back pack or shoulder bag with our wine, etc. I was told that you can't bring any alcoholic beverages onboard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drumbeatfive Posted February 6, 2013 #3 Share Posted February 6, 2013 There are no limits to the amount of carry on pieces you can bring on board. If I were you, I'd set each child up with a small backpack of their own. It may lighten the load on the adults and it might be nice to have each child have a place for "their" stuff.

dixieva Posted February 6, 2013 #5 Share Posted February 6, 2013 One bottle of wine per person is what you can carry on. No hard liqour like whiskey etc. is allowed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beachbum53 Posted February 6, 2013 #6 Share Posted February 6, 2013 I was told that you can't bring any alcoholic beverages onboard. The OP didn't say anything about alcohol. However, you are partially correct. You can bring one bottle of wine or champagne, you're just not allowed to bring on beer or hard liquor.

Happy Cruising!!! Brilliant drumbeatfive! The boys will be excited as well to be able to roll a bag onboard ship. Thanks for the tip! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I knew they would confiscate beer or liquor ... didn't know you could bring a bottle of wine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anything you could carry on a plane will fit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
okgirl Posted February 6, 2013 #10 Share Posted February 6, 2013 Okie Dokie .... I knew they would confiscate beer or liquor ... didn't know you could bring a bottle of wine. There is also an occasionally enforced rule regarding soda's and other non-alcoholic beverages. The current policy is 12 non-alcoholic beverages, 20oz or less per passenger. Galveston is my homeport and they can be particularly strict at the pier. They are very strict about cooler dimensions the limit is 12" x 12" x 12" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Otherwise, during Spring Break, you'd see lots of Frat boys having keg parties on the Lido deck.:eek::rolleyes::D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We do have a collapsable cooler or two that will be in our checked bags to use in the cabins though. As far as the non-alcoholic drinks, they wil be the regular cans of soda and bottled water that are the 12oz. size. Fortunately these little 5 little boys will be able to contibute to the number of non-alcoholic drinks we can bring on board.YAY!:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I usually carry on 2 12 packs of soda and a 12 pk of water plus our two bottles of wine for the two of us. This time we will be 5 of us so we will figure out how to divide up what we need somehow. Fortunatly the one I bring the soda for is not coming this trip so I can bring on water regardless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
