Thanks. Page would not load. I cleared cache and web page then started over.

No doubt.

Thanks.

I like your thinking and advice. On prior cruises I just packed in a shipping box or two, tagged and saw them go to our room.

Has anyone tried the Cellar master Program? I cannot find much about individual wines prices or a comprehensive wine list. Any tips where one might be found?

My wife wants formal thus tuxedo. First time we have been out formal since pre-covid.

Thanks. Most informative as was Reova's. I could not find anything about bringing with carry on luggage. We are on for 16 days so moving 18 bottles with carry on would be difficult. I hoped that, if we paid for the drink package, they might waive the corkage fee. Still, a pretty good deal as the wine prices appear steep.

Thanks. If not confusing, then can you define what quantity may be considered excessive.

Thanks. Reova - we did also figuring a bottle a day. Even brought wine to Europe. There was never an issue as all alcohol was included in the cruise price. I will try six bottles. And I agree with the prices - large on-board markup. Cruiser Bruce - I tried the search but must not have found the correct words or order to find an answer. That said, I appreciate your note and will continue looking. More concerned with the poorly worded HAL FAQ on this.

I tried the search engine but was unsuccessful. This is only our second HAL cruise, the last being 15 years ago. The cruise line we are most familiar with went bankrupt and was all inclusive on beverages, allowing us to bring wine on board in whatever quantity we wanted. The HAL FAQ on bringing wine on board is rather confusing - cannot bring on board, can bring a limited amount (no mention of what is limited). It does state that there is a corkage fee if you have your own wine. We do have a signature beverage package (in a Neptune Suite) so HAL make money if we drink your wine. Any first hand accounts? Also, as we are on board over NYE, we planned on going formal. We will be alone? Appreciate the assistance. Many thanks.
