lesliew Posted February 24, 2016 #1 Share Posted February 24, 2016 Do they Xray checked baggage upon boarding or do a physical search? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sb44 Posted February 24, 2016 #2 Share Posted February 24, 2016 They xray baggage and in most ports you get to walk through a metal detector. Probably depends more on country of embarkation. Not like the airport but they are very careful about who gets on board which is fine with me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ski Mom 2 Posted February 24, 2016 #3 Share Posted February 24, 2016 In St Martin they took our main luggage away so I have no idea what happened with it. Our carry on luggage went through an X-ray machine and we went through one as well. We had two bottles of wine in our carry on plus a metal water bottle. They hand searched our luggage because of that. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ridethetide Posted February 24, 2016 #4 Share Posted February 24, 2016 Your carry-on items go through an x-ray scanner. Passengers are not x-rayed. They go through a metal detector. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BPT Posted February 26, 2016 #5 Share Posted February 26, 2016 So if you were to have 2 bottles of wine in your carry-on & have 2 more in your packed luggage (per person)...would they know? Not that I would sneak on extra wine.;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dandee2 Posted February 26, 2016 #6 Share Posted February 26, 2016 No idea if they would know. Worst that can happen is that they get confiscated and returned to you on disembarcation day. dandee2 Too bad you cant returned the empties and they give you back the other 2.:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Karen13 Posted February 26, 2016 #7 Share Posted February 26, 2016 (edited) We have cruised Windstar twice out of Barbados. Both times we have had bottles of rum in our luggage which we purchased as presents to take home. Never queried. Our hand luggage was never scanned, we just walked onto the ship. No worries as we had the beverage package so no need to take alcohol on board. Edited February 26, 2016 by Karen13 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
