glentally Posted November 30, 2022 #1 Share Posted November 30, 2022 It's been 3 years since my last cruise. Bak in the day some cruise lines allowed one bottle of wine to be brought onboard. Does NCL allow this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare ColeThornton Posted November 30, 2022 #2 Share Posted November 30, 2022 Yes, for a corkage fee you can bring as many as you like. Read the Alcohol Policy in the NCL.com FAQ's for complete info. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare ziggyuk Posted November 30, 2022 #3 Share Posted November 30, 2022 (edited) If you have the beverage package you can bring your wines on board without a corkage fee. Edited November 30, 2022 by ziggyuk 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Sailing12Away Posted November 30, 2022 #4 Share Posted November 30, 2022 Our last trip in September we brought on 4 bottles of wine including a magnum of champagne. No fee was charged as we had the free at sea drink package. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MagnoliaBlossom Posted November 30, 2022 #6 Share Posted November 30, 2022 (edited) All-ready - the policy you posted is the policy that predated the new one that allows wine to be brought onboard IF you have the beverage package. Those who do NOT will have to pay the corkage. Edited November 30, 2022 by MagnoliaBlossom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jdvmd Posted December 1, 2022 #8 Share Posted December 1, 2022 You can bring on as many as you like but must pay a $15-per 750-ml bottle corkage fee. This allows you to enjoy the wine anywhere on the ship including your cabin, restaurants etc. Fee is charged right after security. We always bring a few bottles on board and they take us immediately after security to the little table where you sign for the corkage fee and they put the little "Corkage Fee paid" sticker on each bottle.

As has been covered several times above, this is not the case if you have the beverage package, in which case there is no corkage fee. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fastpitchdad Posted December 1, 2022 #10 Share Posted December 1, 2022 We always bring several bottles (even when we had to pay corkage). If the ship has a Cellars wine bar we would store it there, if not one of the Main Dining Rooms would store it for us. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
