sgmn Posted February 16, 2023 #1 Share Posted February 16, 2023 Hi, Its been a few years. Can anyone advise if the shop at Barcelona port after check in and security is still there, and is the wine choice decent/resonably priced. We're arriving on the day of our cruise and will be going straight from the airport to the port so would like the opportunity of getting our two bottles of permitted wine {Royal Caribbean) and a case of water before we board Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tony s Posted February 16, 2023 #2 Share Posted February 16, 2023 Recommend if taking car or cab go to Carrefour supermarket for a quick stop. There is one on way from airport Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So you could go thru security with no wine, then buy it inside the terminal. You were then able to take it on the ship without further scrutiny of the cruise line, thus bypassing any limitations (and fee$) they have for carrying on your own wine. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And after security 😉 It also had a much wider selection of useful items ( like toiletries etc) than I remember.

I will be on Symphony of the Seas out of Barcelona, first time at this port for embarkation. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She’s so big she spans 2 terminals! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Froufie Posted April 21, 2023 #10 Share Posted April 21, 2023 Can someone confirm that this shop is in Terminal E/Helix please? Do they carry soft drinks/canned as well? Any info on possible 'type/brands' greatly appreciated! 🙂 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RocCruisers Posted April 24, 2023 #11 Share Posted April 24, 2023 Hmmm.. Is it just wine? Anything else like spirits or beer? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Froufie Posted April 24, 2023 #12 Share Posted April 24, 2023 It is a liquor store as I recall so yes it would have different types of alcohol and I know many of my friends went there to 'stock up' their cabin bars LOL (not sure if they carried beer?) Just wondering what the situation is now and if anyone leaving from Terminal E/Helix has any recent experience or info to share? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dancer Bob Posted April 26, 2023 #13 Share Posted April 26, 2023 Last Friday there were two shops open in Terminal E, one souvenir/trinkets, the other seemed to be alcohol and possible chocolate, perfume and cigarettes. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
