lowbass Posted February 11, 2019 #1 Share Posted February 11, 2019 This is our first time sailing on Royal Caribbean and I have a question that I can't seem to find the answer to. I know we can carry on 2, 750ml bottles of wine to drink in our room on boarding day. My question is, can we carry on 2 more 750ml bottles of wine to drink when we stop at a port? Thanks for all your help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for all your help. You can carry them on at any port (except the embarkation port) but they will be taken from you. You will get the them back the last evening of your cruise.

Ken at the beach Posted February 11, 2019 #6 Share Posted February 11, 2019 Guests are not allowed to bring beer, hard liquor or non-alcoholic beverages onboard for consumption or any other use. Guests may bring personal wine and champagne onboard only in their carry-on luggage on boarding day, limited to two (2) 750 ml bottles per stateroom. Additional bottles of wine beyond two (2) bottles that are brought onboard or any alcoholic beverages purchased in ports-of-call or from Shops On Board will be stored by the ship and delivered to your stateroom on the last day of the sailing. https://www.royalcaribbean.com.au/faq/questions/onboard-alcohol-guest-policy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Corby114 Posted February 11, 2019 #11 Share Posted February 11, 2019 There are absolutely no stores at the Port Of Miami. If you want to stop for wine any Publix Supermarket has a very nice selection of any variety of wine you can think of. There are numerous Publix Supermarkets in the Miami Dade area.

Guests may request a corkscrew to use for opening bottles in their stateroom" We had 2 bottles of wine we brought from home in a checked bag for our flight to Bayonne, NJ. That bag arrived at our cabin's door before the "cabin ready" time of 2:00pm on the Anthem of the Seas. I was totally prepared to go claim my bag at security, if needed. Was pleased I didn't have too. Maybe this isn't the case on all ships, but this was our experience. Edited February 12, 2019 by sunnyv Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was not possible to make it through TSA with wine in our carry on, therefore it was in our checked bag. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pretty sure that other released documents from Royal state you must carry on, but they didnt update your's with the 2018 change. But that's Royal...
