jplee3 Posted March 29, 2016 #1 Share Posted March 29, 2016 (edited) Hey all, I was wondering if RCCL has any explicit and strict policies around bringing baby formula or cereal on board. Our travel agent is pretty insistent that we can only bring sealed/unopened baby formula onboard. Does anyone have any recent experience bringing unsealed formula on? Will they allow it or not?

jplee3 Posted March 29, 2016 Author #2 Share Posted March 29, 2016 FWIW I just called the RCCL number and confirmed that they won't care if it's sealed or not. They may check the contents but otherwise it's not a big deal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BigBoatsForMe Posted March 30, 2016 #4 Share Posted March 30, 2016 We just sailed in January with an unsealed container and no issues. We will be doing it again in a few weeks! Enjoy! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bearette Posted March 30, 2016 #5 Share Posted March 30, 2016 Mine are four now but took baby food/ cereal and no one looked twice at me, but they will go gaga over the baby. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cruiserinsg Posted March 30, 2016 #6 Share Posted March 30, 2016 Unsealed and no issue. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ashland Posted March 30, 2016 #7 Share Posted March 30, 2016 Are you bringing powdered formula ? If so and depending on the age of your baby you also might want to bring nursery water if that's something you normally use...if not then..whatever works for your little one.

aqc Posted March 30, 2016 #8 Share Posted March 30, 2016 On our last cruise on the Mariner last Dec 2015, we had both sealed and unsealed powdered formula milk on our carry on and luggage. We even brought ice packs and breast milk stored in a cooler. No problems encountered. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GUT2407 Posted March 30, 2016 #9 Share Posted March 30, 2016 Been a long time since I needed it, but would have been surprised if there had been an issue. Taking it off the ship may be an issue in some ports. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dslucas Posted April 14, 2019 #10 Share Posted April 14, 2019 (edited) Hate to bump such an old thread, but my wife and I are taking a cruise in May with our 9 month old and we’re thinking about bringing little prepackaged bottles of formula that are premade and ready to go. This way we don’t have to bring a ton of powdered formula and need to constantly worry about mixing and making the bottles. My question - do these little premade formulas count against the number of pre-packaged non-alcoholic beverages we can bring? I think I read the limit is something like 12? We’d certainly want to bring more. Edited April 14, 2019 by dslucas Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My question - do three little premade formulas count against the number of pre-packaged non-alcoholic beverages we can bring? I think I read the limit is something like 12? We’d certainly want to bring more. They do not count against your 12 bottles water or soda 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
