Packing alcohol in checked bag

[mdvlprof]

I know how they handle luggage . If it even remotely fragile - carry.

DCL regs say liquid is to be carried on, not checked.

And broken bottles leak liquid - onto your stuff [oh well] and onto unfortunates whose luggage just happens to be next to yours.

I'll be carrying it on but am flying which is why it has to be checked since TSA won't allow it in my carry on for the flight. I plan to transfer it to my carry on once I get to the airport since it can't be in my checked bag on the ship

Actually if they can see your broken bottle wet someones else s clothes, etc...........DCL will require you to pay dry cleaning and/or replacement of the other peoples wet items.

We used a wheeled bag to carry on. Thought about checking but not worth the trouble.

Just remember when boarding you have to have it in your carry on..........no liquids in checked luggage going on the vessel.

The OP stated in the first post that they are checking in through on the plane and will be taking it out to carry on the ship.

and the extension to that is to be sure they and anyone reading who may not know.....is aware they cannot check it on DCL and must carry it on.

What is your point?

OP, in addition to a wine skin or wine diaper you can line the entire suit case with a plastic bag. Like a heave trash bag.
I have traveled with alcohol in checked bags before and I have never had any issue. I have always wrapped in a plastic bag then something heavy and placed in as close to the center of the bag as I can.

My point is they know. They said they were going to transfer it to their carry on at the airport. No need to point out rules they had every intention of following.

Plus someone said

Clearly not understanding what the OP is doing at all. You cant bring liquids on a plane, hence putting it in the checked bag.

and my point was there maybe OTHERS who did not know, the whole point of the Dis is to give out information and related information.

I felt it was a point worth making.

Dude, I'm not arguing with you at all. Just clarifying before it turns in to a debate on whither or not it is ok to check a bag with liquids on to the ship, which NO ONE was planning on doing.

I have traveled from CO to VA on many occasions with 6-8 bottles of wine in my checked luggage. I have soft sided luggage and put a layer of rolled clothes on the bottom and the sides then pack the wine in the small paper bags from the liquor store and use mens black dress socks ( the long kind) and put the bottle in them. (Knock on wood) I have never had a bottle break this way and have been doing this for years.

I have also brought back tequila bottles this way.
