breenw Posted July 12, 2023 #1 Share Posted July 12, 2023 Last year we sailed on a European cruise on another cruise line. Even though their policy was to not allow passengers to bring liquor other than wine onboard, they didn't prohibit travelers from doing that when boarding the ship in Dover. Is this the same for Celebrity that they are lax about that policy or is "no liquor" allowed on European cruises? We aren't heavy drinkers at all so buying the liquor packages for both of us just doesn't pay off. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jelayne Posted July 12, 2023 #2 Share Posted July 12, 2023 In my experience no liquor has been allowed to be brought on board and will be taken and held until the end of the sailing. If you don't drink much you are probably better off to just pay as you go for your drinks rather than buying a package. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare cruisestitch Posted July 12, 2023 #3 Share Posted July 12, 2023 It is not the same for Celebrity as whatever cruise line you were on the floor. Celebrity has a no liquor policy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rothko1 Posted July 12, 2023 #4 Share Posted July 12, 2023 Yeah, I agree with just buying the drinks as you go. Also, what would be the purpose of bringing the liquor onboard? To drink in your cabin? That's sort of the antithesis of not being a heavy drinker. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bringing a bottle of liquor onboard for a 13 night cruise is hardly being a "heavy drinker" but I don't need your smart alec comment either.

Alas, no, but you can bring two bottles of wine per person on board at embarkation, if you’re not heavy drinkers that might suffice. You can also purchase a bottle of liquor, I believe with mixers, online to be delivered to your room, it’s pricey but since you’re not heavy drinkers, it might be cheaper than a package or a per drink purchase. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have read reports that the 2 bottle of wine limit has been changed back to 1. A check of the Alcohol policy says 1 again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One bottle per person, and as many as you can carry over that for $15/bottle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
