Returned from the Disney Wonder, 10/4 to Cabo, with a few experiences/tips (after complaining and getting the same crap response as everyone else).
-Tried to take a bottle of vodka on with my wine carry on. No go. Got a receipt and was told to pick up after debarking at a confiscated items booth in port. The confiscated items were actually on the boat though and you are not allowed to get back on after debarking to pick up your items. With the receipt I demanded that one of the workers go get my bottle and bring it to me. They did.
-Each port you ARE allowed to bring on a six pack or 2 bottles of wine. They were pretty lenient with this. I saw a couple with 2x12 packs and wine that got on without a problem in Ensenada.
-When going to dinner (Palo and MDR) we had just corked our bottle of wine in the room and sat it on the table at dinner. Our servers did not charge us the corking fee as the work had already been done. Once our glasses were getting low, they refilled. We did this at 3 dinners and saved us $75, which was helpful.
-Coming back from Cabo we returned to our room to find a bottle of champagne and a plush Gonzo doll for the kid. I'm guessing they had a note on account of me complaining about the policy as I don't see any other reason why they would do this.
