Rare david63 Posted May 15 #2 Share Posted May 15 The latest rules are one bottle of wine or champagne per passenger at embarkation and no spirits. How rigorously the rules are being enforced remains to be seen. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SeaJane Posted May 16 #3 Share Posted May 16 We always take a 2.25 litre box of wine and have so far never had any problems. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quite a number of years ago I did the same but made the mistake of putting it in one of the cases. Unfortunately it was flagged up when the case went through the scanner as the box showed up as a solid block on the scanner and was treated as suspicious. I was summoned to security to explain what was in the case. Never taken one since! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

smj777 Posted May 17 #6 Share Posted May 17 We've taken a 2.25l wine box in our cases on our last 2 cruises with P&O. No problem. (A box this size fits perfectly in the 'fridge on it's side) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lee Jones Jnr Posted May 17 #7 Share Posted May 17 (edited) Why can't people just follow the rules or book a trip that they want to go on instead? Edited May 17 by Lee Jones Jnr Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(A box this size fits perfectly in the 'fridge on it's side) That was fine then but has since changed and now can only take 1 bottle of wine per person and most wines in the UK are 75cl as very few, if any, are sold in 1 litre bottles. That is where the confusion is not being helped by saying 1 bottle of wine instead of saying one bottle of 75cl wine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
