Kurbanfan Posted May 2, 2007 #2 Share Posted May 2, 2007 Please save the "don't smuggle" replies! 1. I need to know how people get Corona's on board with the metal cap 2. What plastic bottled beers they carry? You mean the bottles? Just pack them in your luggage and hope they don't break... I believe they have Miller and Micelob in plastic bottles..

bonstersd Posted May 2, 2007 #3 Share Posted May 2, 2007 Believe it or not, my sister individually wraps bottles of beer, packs them in a banker's box, puts the banker's box on a wheelie cart, and rolls it all on board with her. She really likes and array of beers that they just don't have on the ship, so she makes the effort. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DJ Eddy Posted May 2, 2007 #4 Share Posted May 2, 2007 Carnival wouldn't let you on with bottles of Corona... they don't even sell Corona in bottles anymore, you ask for Corona you get it in a glass. The reason for that is if you ask for lime and you put it in a bottle... when they pack it all in the garbage when in the homeport it is lime, a food product in a glass bottle, and it is breaking environmentel laws in terms of recycling and carnival could be fined. I wondered why they stopped the bottles, it kinda made me laugh but I do see why now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wondered why they stopped the bottles, it kinda made me laugh but I do see why now At one time they used to pour the Corona from the glass bottle into a plastic Corona bottle that has a "funnel" type neck. They are pretty cool. I brought 4 of them home with me. :p :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crusin Karen Posted May 2, 2007 #6 Share Posted May 2, 2007 That is really interesting DJ Eddy. I thought they were worried about breakage, for example, at the pool where someone could get injured. I know many years ago they had plastic Corona bottles with that "funny top" and was wondering why they didn't have that anymore. You learn something new every day! :rolleyes: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you order any of these it will be poured into a plastic cup (even if you order a bucket). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kurbanfan Posted May 2, 2007 #8 Share Posted May 2, 2007 Carnival wouldn't let you on with bottles of Corona... they don't even sell Corona in bottles anymore, Unless this just started. On our last cruise in Dec. they sold them in the bottle inside at the bar. Just not on the Lido deck due to breakage..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're saying that if one orders a bucket, they will pour all of the beers into plastic cups and bring it that way? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
truecruiser Posted May 2, 2007 #10 Share Posted May 2, 2007 but i think OP is asking (in a roundabout way) if any corona smugglers had the screening set off due to the metal caps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Screening uses x-ray, not MRI :D Unless of course they are carrying their Coronas in their pocket. :eek: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you order any of these it will be poured into a plastic cup (even if you order a bucket). They do have the plastic bottles but they don't give you a glass bottle anywhere on the ship... due to the recycling issue. They stopped it even in the crew bar... you get a glass instead.
