SailRGal Posted December 28, 2019 #1 Share Posted December 28, 2019 Are you able to bring a bottle of port wine on board in place of regular wine or champagne? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corby114 Posted December 28, 2019 #2 Share Posted December 28, 2019 You should have absolutely no problem as long as the bottle isn’t bigger than 750 ml. The maximum amount allowed is two bottles per stateroom. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SailRGal Posted December 28, 2019 Author #3 Share Posted December 28, 2019 Thank you! Also, does RC have an online store for pre-purchase of liquor for cabin, as Carnival does? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MommaBear55 Posted December 28, 2019 #4 Share Posted December 28, 2019 Technically it is not allowed, as port is a fortified wine. We get around that by taking a late harvest Zinfandel. We've never had the port security even look at out wines, though, so you'd probably be okay. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Merion_Mom Posted December 28, 2019 #5 Share Posted December 28, 2019 As stated above, it's not allowed, and someone has reported that theirs was confiscated, but 999,999 times out of 1,000,000, they don't even look at the bottle itself - just the outline on the scanner. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, but it limited to a few ships and kinda expensive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spookwife Posted December 28, 2019 #7 Share Posted December 28, 2019 If it’s in a standard port bottle, you may get pushback since it’s not going to look like a regular wine bottle. the prepurchase hard liquor options are not a good value at all unless you like well brands Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In Baltimore they always make everyone remove it and they look at it and make sure it says wine or champagne/prosecco. It's the only port I've ever seen that done all the time. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
