Hi, w``esail4fun,

 

They are $109 and one carton per person

 

Thanks for the quick reply. Is it $109 for 5 cartons or 4? When do they let you buy them? After we are in international waters?

Hi, wesail4fun,

 

They are $109 and one carton per person is allowed through customs.

Also do we get to take them immediately to our room, or do they give to us the last night of the cruise?

 

Thanks again

The shops are only open when you are out to sea so you don't have to worry about the tax. We brought ours on the last sea day.

You can take them to your room right when you buy them.

2 cartons for $49.00, 5 for $108.00 last month on Paradise. Glad I got some, I just came back from Hawaii yesterday and they were $10.15 per pack...$101.50 per carton. I didn't have to buy any there!!!

You can bring back more than 1 carton a person, but you have to pay duty on them when you get to customs

Do you remember how much that was?

Someone wrote yesterday on another cruise board, right at @2.00 a carton. They claimed ten cartons, customs waived them through last week with no tax.

My DH buys 4 cartons every cruise and I have yet to pay a duty on the cigs even tho I write it on my custom form. This has happened in FLL, Miami, New Orleans and Mobile. Maybe I've been lucky. One time in NOLA we had a newbie agent and he started to take us back to the naughty room and his surpervisor caught him and told him to let it go, they were too busy to worry about a few $$ for cigs. I don't think they are too concerned about the duty on 2 carton s of cigs.

Don't think cigarettes are what they are concerned about unless you were trying to bring a case in.
