HerK_Sunflower Posted August 25, 2014 #1 Share Posted August 25, 2014 (edited) We're doing back-to-back cruises in a couple weeks and are wanting to find a liquor store NEAR/AT the port to buy 2 more bottles of wine for embarkation day of our 2nd cruise. I see online that the Carnival Fun Shops offer bottled wine, starting around $26/bottle - we're looking for less than that...I'll be a slight wine snot at home, but on vacation, I just want something affordable that we can both relax and enjoy. Any suggestions would be helpful. Thank you!!! Edited August 25, 2014 by HerK_Sunflower Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scanditaly Posted August 28, 2014 #3 Share Posted August 28, 2014 Hi OP; Here is what I think you are doing? If you buy/bring wine on the ship at any port that is not embarkation; the cruiseline will take if from you, but return it the night before the last day on board. You will then have two bottles ready for your next voyage. Is this correct? Can you please expand with any other thoughts you might have? Thank you, scanditaly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare skittl1321 Posted August 29, 2014 #4 Share Posted August 29, 2014 Carnival will let you bring a bottle of wine on during your initial embarkation (maybe you can bring for both cruises if you do b2b? I don't know) but they do collect any alcohol, including wine, brought on at various ports. Unless you manage to sneak it pass the scanners- you can't buy wine in Cozumel to bring back to enjoy on the ship. It will be returned to you at the end of your cruise (again- maybe you get it back and can have it for the second cruise, but if they have their act together, you wouldn't get it back until after the second one.)
