4774Papa Posted June 11, 2017 #2 Share Posted June 11, 2017 can I place it in my suitcase or do I need to carry it with me? I always carry on our two bottles. Even if you wrap the wine carefully, they can be broken and you have a huge mess. I had a coffee mug in my suitcase that I wrapped carefully, still got broken. They really throw around the suitcases.

CHEZMARYLOU Posted June 11, 2017 #3 Share Posted June 11, 2017 You can do it either way, we usually have it in our carry on but have flown with wine and champagne in our checked luggage with no problems. I use bubble wrap and put it in a big zip lock bag. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ClaudiaB Posted June 11, 2017 #4 Share Posted June 11, 2017 We have done both, but mostly we buy some in port and put it in our carry on. Typically our carry ons are full but I do travel with a few of those reusable grocery type fabric bags and we each put one of those around the wine and stack it on top of the luggage when we roll in. We have also packed wine in our suitcase (usually on the way home) using one of those styrofoam wine holders that we get with wine shipments to the house. I put that in a large zip lock bag for extra protection. They can toss the suitcase all they want - it's not going to break in those. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

musik07 Posted June 11, 2017 #6 Share Posted June 11, 2017 We carry on to avoid a trip to pick up our suitcase. Once we flew in day of and I prepackaged the wine in my suitcase in a tote, and had it bubble wrapped and in two large zip locks that I duct taped closed. Had they broken they wouldn't have damaged my clothes. When we landed I quickly opened my suitcase and grabbed the bag out to carry on. If we stay in port overnight, we grab then and re-arrange our carry on to have room if we want to carry on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davekathy Posted June 11, 2017 #7 Share Posted June 11, 2017 If we don't have the BP we always put our wine in a carry on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jelayne Posted June 11, 2017 #8 Share Posted June 11, 2017 We normally put the wine in our carry-on. The 1 time we didnt we returned from muster & only only 1 suitcase bag had been delivered, but they were still delivering bags. By 6:15 no bag & everything for our deck had been delivered. Guest services sent us to security, sure enough our bag was being held because of the bottles. Got our suitcase & wine with a reminder that we should bring our bottles of wine onboard in our carry-on. YMMV Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snowmc Posted June 11, 2017 #9 Share Posted June 11, 2017 Celebrity actually requires you to carry it on. I know that many people have put it in their checked luggage, but I also know of many people who then had to retrieve their luggage from security onboard after sailing. Why not just carry it on and not take the chance of your bag going missing? Not a fun way to start your vacation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
