Need Vodka- STAT! Please help! :)

[myfamilyluvs2cruise]

We are 13 days from our sailing on the Magic, and I am trying to refresh my memory on how to have a bottle of vodka delivered to our room upon embarkation. They have added that feature on the Carnival website since our last cruise, which I thought was pretty cool rather than calling in an order via Bon Voyage. However, I tried to order it online, and it appears as if the earliest delivery date would be 2 days into our cruise. I want my order before we set sail, like we have always had it done on past cruises. I don't want to have to try and drink all of it in 5 days, instead of 7 days. :rolleyes:

 

Do I need to go old school and order via phone? Will I be able to have it when we arrive at our room?

 

Thanks for the advice!

Which port are you sailing out of? If it is Galiviston, they can't have it in the room for embarkation and it would be the next day. If not, I'd just call and ask.

It is Galveston. Why would that be?

Yep, looks like you're leaving from Texas. Due to their weird liquor laws you can't have it til the next day.

BUMMER! They say they deliver between 10am and 9pm . . . that is almost 2 days into the trip if it doesn't get there in the morning. Anyone know if it comes early? Otherwise, I am not sure it is really worth it.

You could just call room service after midnight and have them deliver a bottle, it's the same price. The probably hold off til 10am so they don't wake people.

Departing from Texas, does he have to wait till after midnight, or is X number of miles out ok?

I was wondering the same thing... maybe wait till they open the casino and/or the shops and call room service and see if they can deliver it then. Its the same price as pre ordering it and maybe you'll be able to get it earlier. And yes Texas has some weird liquor laws, so not only can liqour not be in the room at embarkation, but Cheers cannot be bought until the 2nd day as well.
