shortstop95 Posted October 9, 2016 #1 Share Posted October 9, 2016 Sorry to keep asking so many questions- but we are Princess newbies. With Carnival, each guest is able to bring aboard one bottle of wine- does Princess do the same? We have a bottle of champagne that we would like to bring for early morning mimosas. Thoughts?

Astro Flyer Posted October 9, 2016 #2 Share Posted October 9, 2016 Sorry to keep asking so many questions- but we are Princess newbies. With Carnival, each guest is able to bring aboard one bottle of wine- does Princess do the same? We have a bottle of champagne that we would like to bring for early morning mimosas. Thoughts? Each adult passenger can bring one 750ml bottle of wine or champagne per cruise without paying a fee when consumed in your cabin. If brought to a dining room you'll be subject to a $15 corkage fee & they'll store remaining wine for another day. You can bring additional bottles which are subject the $15 fee which can be consumed anywhere. We've brought wine during embarkation & from ports and had the same experience. They'll also store wine from ports that you're taking home without any fees which is returned to you on the last night of the cruise. http://www.princess.com/learn/faq_answer/pre_cruise/bring.jsp As provided in the Passage Contract, guests agree not to bring alcoholic beverages of any kind onboard for consumption, except one bottle of wine or champagne per adult of drinking age (no larger than 750 ml) per voyage, which will not be subject to a corkage fee if consumed in the stateroom. Additional wine or champagne bottles are welcome, but will incur a $15 corkage fee each, irrespective of where they are intended to be consumed. Liquor, spirits or beers are not permitted. Please remember that luggage will be scanned and alcohol outside of our policy will be removed and discarded.* Alcoholic beverages that are purchased duty free from the ship's gift shop, or at ports of call, will be collected for safekeeping and delivered to the guest's stateroom on the last day of the cruise. A member of the ship's staff will be at the gangway to assist guests with the storage of their shoreside alcoholic purchases while our Boutiques staff will assist guests with shipboard alcoholic purchases. *Princess Cruises is not responsible for any alcoholic beverages removed and discarded by shoreside security staff. Such items are not eligible for monetary refund or replacement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Astro Flyer Posted October 9, 2016 #4 Share Posted October 9, 2016 Thank you! You're welcome & despite implementing this more restrictive wine/champagne policy a couple of years ago it's still much better than on most cruise lines. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caribill Posted October 10, 2016 #5 Share Posted October 10, 2016 Sorry to keep asking so many questions- but we are Princess newbies. No need to apologize. Ask as many questions as you may have. You may want to go to the Princess web site and download a copy of the "Cruise Answer Book" which can answer many questions you may have about cruising on Princess ships.
