Wine on embarkation day

[BOOGALOO509]

I note from Carnival's website anyone over 21 is permitted to take on board one bottle of wine each during their embarkation process, providing it is not drunk in the MDR.  I was always under the impression no one was allowed to take wine on board unless they paid a corkage fee.

 

Has anyone done this and if so have they encountered any issues whilst boarding?

 

My wife and I like to have a glass of wine each evening before we head out of the cabin and by being able to take a bottle each with us it saves one of us (usually me), having to go up to a bar and bring the drinks back down to the cabin.

 

Many thanks in advance.

We have done this several times. The wine needs to be in your carryon bag when boarding the ship.

You can each bring one bottle and don’t forget the corkscrew if it is not twist off.

Not only have we brought on wine, we have taken it by the glass to the dining room with no issues.  If you bring the bottle to the dining room, I would say you would encounter corkage fees.

Many thanks for the replies, pleased to hear it is straightforward to do.

 

Regards.
