How are you bringing Alcohol on board?

[PrincessShmoo]

Wow, now that is a new policy change. Does anyone know when they changed that?

Today, effective with cruises beginning 9/30/15.

Best to read the fast moving thread that's at the top of these boards covering it.

I believe it came out yesterday.

Oh man! That is a real shame. Was looking forward to bringing some scotch on board. Does this mean we can't get alcohol in the ports & bring it on board?

Only wine, champagne, and beer can be brought onboard (on embarkation and from ports of call).

But, if you asking about purchases to bring home, it may be possible (like on other cruise lines) to purchase hard liquor and have it tagged and held until the end of the cruise. Then you claim it and bring it through customs at the end of your cruise.

 

[Betty Breed]

No actually I was thinking about purchasing spirits on shore in the ports. What kinds of wine & beer do they have in the Eastern Caribbean?

Actually I was thinking abt buying alcohol in the ports. Not just beer & wine. What kind of beer & wine do they have in the Eastern Caribbean? Anything like home?

Corporate greed.

I have one of these, it built for 7 bottles of wine. Imagine my reaction to today's announcement...

To answer the thread title: After my September sailing, creatively.

 

[bumbershoot]

Silly question, because it seems like the answer has to be 'of course' but can you purchase a *glass* of wine with your dinner? They'll have a house red or white, right? Thanks!

They'll have more than just house wine.

In answer to the original question...with stealth

We have been bottling our own wine for a while now. I will just have to make sure that I don't accidentally fill one of my 750ml wine bottles with bourbon and cork it.

We use to bring a rolling suitcase.
Now with the new policy, I will have to use some flipflops that my SiL gave me as a gag-gift, that have a hidden compartment in the heal area and have those in my carry-on.

Ah. The Dram by Reef. 3 oz. each. Not enough to get me through a movie, but nice to have anyway.

Just say it was a Jesus intervention. And he said DCL should knock this liquor restriction nonsense off.

I guess I'll be sneaking it on.

Hypothetically, it's possible that the dark colored beer bottles with the screw on tops one might bring aboard could have been previously opened and refilled...I'm sure with more "beer".
