Places to buy wine in Orlando Airport?

[kdeans1010]

Silly question:

Is there a place to buy bottles of wine at the Orlando airport? My dad and I are cruising in like 3 weeks and we arrive at the Orlando airport the night before our cruise, stay at the Hyatt in the airport, then take the Disney shuttle to the boat. But my dad has mentioned a few times (and if my dad mentions it a few times then it's a big deal for him) how he'd like to get a few bottles of wine and bring them with us to have a glass of wine or two a night before dinner. It would seem easier in one way to buy the wine in Florida rather than schlep it in our luggage and pray it doesn't break or open... And we won't have a car...

There are no public liquor stores in the airport. You can not use the Duty Free shops since you are not flying on an international flight.
I've read on here that some people have been successful at purchasing bottles of wine from an airport restaurant, but not sure if anyone has done that lately.
You could look into one of the online grocery stores to have it delivered to your hotel. Another option would be to order a gift basket from Shirley at The Perfect Gift that includes wine. I would call the shop directly a few weeks before you sail if you choose to go this route.

I bought my wine at home and used these to pack them. They sell them right at my local liquor store, and I've used them several times to bring wine on vacation. I have never had a problem.

Check out ABC Fine Wine and Spirits at abcfws.com Since you are arriving the day before, you can place an order online and have it delivered directly to the hotel. We did this for the Panama Canal cruise. It hadnt arrived when we checked in, but was in our room when we returned from dinner. They have a fabulous selection. I am a bit anal, so after placing the order online and specifically telling them when and where to deliver I called customer service to follow up. Great prices too. Plan on doing this every time.
