First cruise in June....keep seeing checked luggage and carry on....what do they check for in your luggage. And what do you normally carry on with you? Thanks!
if it's ok to butt in.....
How large of a bag is allowed for carry-on? I guess I"m asking how big is the scanner? I should know, but can't remember.
DCL destroyed our luggage last summer. I'm not looking forward to handing it back over to them on our shorter cruises. I'm seriously considering arriving after we can go to our rooms and just packing light in smaller suitcases to carry it on ourselves. Anyone else do this?

They generally will be checking both your carry-on bags and checked bags for prohibited items. For more info see the FAQs here. Note while you can bring yhour own alcohol on board, it must be in your carry-on bags and not checked luggage (and you cannot bring on a cooler). Your carry-on bags must be able to fit into the x-ray scanner at the port entrance
Use your old lugage, they broke GD new bag that we gave her for Christmas. Checked bags are thrown in big pile. Pictues are out their for you to see.
Bring some duck tape to wrap it up to go home. But have a great trip. Do obsess over thing you will not be able to control.
We actually checked in a cooler with the alcohol during our Mexican Riviera Cruise 2008.
We also brought with us a couple of cases of water on all of our cruises. No problem.
DCL no longer allows coolers to be brought onboard. They were always on the prohibited list, but not enforced. Until end of last year.
Yes, you can bring water onboard, but there's really not much reason to. The water onboard is processed the same way that bottled water is processed (reverse osmosis and filtered). That's all the water onboard, for preparing food, making ice, from the drink station, from the tap in your room. We just bring a couple of reusable water bottles for filling onboard.
This is good news. I was just trying to talk myself into either paying the $35 for 24 bottles or a way to buy a case and then throw it in a bag and let Disney deal with it. I don't want to carry on so much I feel overloaded. Do the drink machines have a water spout?
Yes.
Maximum size for carryon, per DCL, 22" wide, 14" high and 9" deep.
