oscarshep Posted April 14, 2023 #1 Share Posted April 14, 2023 Hi, I`m getting some ciggies for someone at work when I go on Explorer in May. Ports of call are in Italy, Slovenia, Croatia, Montenegro and Corfu. Does anyone know from experience which place might be the cheapest to buy them. It`s a filthy habit I know but happy to save someone a few quid. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oscarshep Posted April 14, 2023 Author #3 Share Posted April 14, 2023 Thanks, I just assumed the ship would be a bit pricey but much easier than wasting my precious time shopping around so will probably buy onboard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I purchased rolling tobacco at the duty free shops at corfu airport, They had a good selection of tobacco products at decent prices. Ok as a last resort if you don’t get them onboard or on your travels. I am assuming that you are flying to and from Corfu.

bishop84 Posted April 15, 2023 #7 Share Posted April 15, 2023 FYI Tourists are getting caught out with the revised duty free allowances and having goods confiscated and/or fines. Although the spirits allowance has gone up the tobacco allowance hasn't.

howmuch! Posted April 17, 2023 #9 Share Posted April 17, 2023 Yes don't be tempted, as the shop on the ship sometimes has offers in quantities greater than 400. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
