Carry on beverages???

[sunshinegal59]

Hey all, need a question answered before cruising this weekend. I know you cannot carry any alcohol onto the ship when boarding, but a few people have mentioned carrying on a bottle or two of wine. I know it is ok with Carnival but I am not sure about Royal Caribbean. Can someone clarify this for us? Thank you so much for your help!!! ;)

Two 750 ml bottles of wine are allowed per stateroom, not per person.

Also, Royal no longer has corkage fees so enjoy your wine anywhere on the ship.

As far as anywhere on the ship, ymmv. There have been recent reports of attempted corkage fee charges when consuming personal wine/champagne in onboard bars/lounges. But, any restaurants, public open spaces and in your cabin should never incur a corkage fee.

That is good news about the waiving of corkage fees in dining room at least.

 

Can anyone confirm whether it is still necessary to carry your wine onboard in your carry-on luggage and not put it in your suitcases?

 

Thanks

Can you bring a case or 2 of water?

Royal does not specify how you must carry on the wine, it's your choice. I would advise you to carry it on to reduce the potential for breakage and delay getting your luggage if they see something suspicious on the x-ray.

Technically against the rules, but frequently allowed.
