Rare david63 Posted June 6 #2 Share Posted June 6 The current rules are that each passenger can take one bottle of wine onboard at embarkation only - no spirits allowed. How rigorously these rules are enforced is another matter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Having just got back on Arvia ten minutes ago at Cadiz then you would have actively had to seek someone out if you wanted to hand over any alcohol bought onshore, and the same was true of all the other ports that had shoreside scanning, as they seem to have given up with the (bored) staff sitting at an ‘honesty’ table at security.

Norwayfan1 Posted June 6 #4 Share Posted June 6 If you would have no difficulty carrying any confiscated port-purchased wine home at the end of your cruise, you could just take the view that you would be prepared to hand in that wine, if the cruise line were sufficiently organised and motivated to collect it on that day.

If you wish to chance your entire case being covered in an accidentally broken bottle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
