mafiadon Posted June 7, 2015 #1 Share Posted June 7, 2015 I haven't cruised on Carnival since 2009 and was wondering if Carnival allows you to bring two bottles of wine on board like RC and do they still open the dividers to balconies. On our recent RC cruise last month they wouldn't do it, they told me they were no longer allowed to have the dividers open for safety reasons. I'm not sure what kind of safety reasons those could be but they would not do it. If anyone could help with these questions I would really appreciate it.

tea4ular Posted June 7, 2015 #2 Share Posted June 7, 2015 I can answer the wine question. One bottle per adult 21 and over is permitted to be carried on (not checked in with luggage). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

N2Mischief Posted June 7, 2015 #4 Share Posted June 7, 2015 Agree on the wine As of this past February/March they were still opening balconies on Glory, Breeze and Splendor. We entered the hallway to find the senior gentleman next door to us arguing heatedly with his cabin steward. Didn't know at the time what it was about but steward looked stressed and gentleman was saying that this was ruining his entire vacation. Later the steward took us aside and asked if we wanted the dividers on our balcony opened. We said, "no", as we didn't know our neighbors. Turns out we had a cabin between the gentleman and his daughter and he wanted both dividers open so they could use our balcony to go back and forth between their cabins! lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As long as the two cabins have a divider that opens, you can request it be done. Which ship/cabin #s? I'll see if I can find info more for you.

That is just incredible that someone whould expect that. I don't get it. Takes all types I have always heard. I wonder if the daughter booked it that way to have some privacy of her own.

vacruisin Posted June 10, 2015 #14 Share Posted June 10, 2015 Concerning the dividers: Yes, you can have them opened if you and your neighbors both request it but you want to request it as soon as you see your room steward because they only open a limited amount and it has to be BEFORE sailaway.
