I don't recall any place where you would even stop to declare any alcohol purchased. You just follow the throngs of people, do a facial scan, and you are out of there. I haven't seen the TABC table the past few cruises I've been on. They might be setting it up in a quiet out of the way corner somewhere since they know most people with alcohol aren't declaring it anyway.

Softservekid1 Posted August 12 #29 Share Posted August 12 I don't understand why anyone would want to buy liquor and bring it back to the USA. I think it wouldn't be worth the hassle. You can find anything here already. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Too much hassle (and risk of breakage) to save a few dollars. Just my never humble opinion. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We were looking for it because I didn't see them in Sept either Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have yet to really find anything vastly cheaper to make it worth the trouble of lugging it home as well. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
