Just occured to me as I try to create THE perfect packing list.
I have the wine bubbled wrapped etc. But with the x ray of lugguge etc dare I even try to pack a wine opening?
If I put it into check lugguge with clothes wouldn't that be picked up during scanning and cause a through search ?
What do you think?

You can pack a corkscrew in your checked bags with no problem. Or use one of the "wine pullers" that has no sharp points that rocks the cork out....that could even go in carry-on bags.
And if worse comes to worst DCL will loan you a corkscrew once onboard. :)

If you are serious about wine, forget the corkscrew and pack your sabre - you strike the bottle right along the neck, and you won't have any problems. :jester:

barnsquad, you can borrow ours - we got a little corkscrew when we sailed 2/2000. It's a DCL one. Closes up into a little case - the case cover is the handle. I think we got it right from our cabin steward.

Hi:wave:
Don't need one with a box of wine or even ones with screw tops? ;)

I had one of the "wine pullers" WITH sharp points and I got it on the ship 10/13/01, no problem.

Michelle is right, just pack one in a checked bag. The ban of sharp items only involves carry on bags. Kathy
