Has anyone, who did not have a beverage package, brought wine aboard?  The policy of 2 bottles pp without corkage appears to apply only if you have a beverage package. We are sailing soon with NO beverage package and I can't find on X's web site how much the corkage fee might be per bottle.

You'll only pay it if you take your bottles to a bar or restaurant.  Then, $25.

All passengers can bring 2 bottles per person, regardless of a bev package or not. The only difference is those with no bev package will pay $25 per bottle to enjoy that bottle in any dining venue. Open in your own cabin, no fee. Those with a bev package get corkage waived for wine they bring into a dining venue. I think maybe what’s confusing you… yes, those with a bev package sometimes bring their own wine, which facially seems counterintuitive since you’re already paying for unlimited wine. I bring special bottles that I have been aging, or want for celebrating. So I have the bev package as it covers water, coffees, martinis, and the ships wine on some nights, I still like to bring my own splurge bottles to be poured in dining venues, no corkage fee.

Didn't know if this was said, if you open it in a dining venue and don't finish it (rare scenario), they will store your wine for you and will retrieve it when you're in any other dining venues.

Edit:  already answered a few times. Enjoy a nice glass on your SR. Just what we do.

Would you have to pay the corkage again?

No.  It's a one-and-done.
