B2B and bringing wine onboard

[CruzinNoony]

We are going on a B2B2B on the Ruby the end of October and I am wondering about how many bottles of wine can we bring on upon embarking. It isn't convenient in San Pedro to get off and find a liquor store on turnaround day. If I brought on 6 bottles, would they hold 4 for me and I could collect 2 for B2B #2 and 2 for B2B #3? :cool:

Here's an old link about buying wine near the cruise dock in San Pedro: http://boards.cruisecritic.com/showthread.php?t=2133022

 

Apparently there's a liquor store about a mile away and a better wine store two miles away.

Our last B2B we brought on 2 bottles each.. When they saw the extra bottles they were going to charge us. We showed our documents that we were on a B2B and they let us go. This was in FLL.

That's handy to know. I'll keep it in mind for our next B2B.

If you show your documentation they may just let you keep them or they may collect 4 and deliver 2 each leg or they may collect 4 and deliver all 4 in a day or two. We've had all of these happen to us but in any event you shouldn't have to pay any corkage fees.

Great information as we have a B2B scheduled soon. Thanks.

Thanks so much for the good information!:)

We have done a couple of B2B. As long as you have both boarding passes, you can bring on one bottle per person per cruise.
