Alcoholic Beverages In Our Stateroom?

[WellShoneMoon]

I have been searching this board and Googling in general for a while now without finding the information I need, so I thought I'd just come out and ask:

 

We'll be sailing on Freedom of the Seas on January 9, 2011, and we will have a balcony room for the first time. We'd like to have happy hour on our balcony before dinner in the evening. (I'm talking about Scotch and vodka, not wine or beer, and I'm talking about one drink each per day.)

 

Do I have to go to a bar to get the drinks and bring them back to the room? Will room service deliver hard liquor drinks? Are these drinks already available in a mini-bar in the room?

 

Thanks!

You can order from Room service or pick up from a bar. There is no alcohol in the minibars.

I should have come to you first, instead of wasting time in fruitless Googling ... :)

Or you can smuggle it like most people do.

While you're not supposed to bring your own liquor aboard, they don't care WHERE you drink, as long as you buy it "by the drink" from them.

....And apparently they care about how much you buy at at time. I've being trying to send a bottle of Vodka to a friends cabin for their holiday cruise. I know they would enjoy having a nightcap on their balconey and mabe a drink while getting ready for dinner.

 

I couldn't find anything on the website, so I emailed RCCL asking specifically how I could order a bottle of vodka for a going away gift in the cabin. They said no problem and gave me a number to call. When I called it became a problem. They will not let you have a bottle of "hard liquor" in the room because "their would be no way to monitor it"

RCI used to have a liquor store on-board where you could buy bottles and take them back to your cabin ......... ahhh, the good ol' days! :D :D
