How much wine can you bring on board and how is the best way to get it on the ship?

 

If you read the other posts, you will find that 'bardgal' took on a "CASE" of champagne with no problem in her luggage.

 

We took on hard liquor with no problem in our luggage.

 

There you have it.

 

Hope it helps.

I brought a full case of wine on the Inspiration in April with my sister. We checked it with our luggage at the airport, and put a luggage tag on it at the port. It was delivered to our room with our luggage. We wound up giving several bottles away to people we met on the ship. But there was no problem at all taking it on the ship, or the plane! We also tipped the room steward on the first day, asking that we always have ice in our room for chilling it!

We brought a cardboard wine box with about 6 bottles of wine - no problem. We like our wine and find that the wine list on board is quite limited. After a couple nights, we were charged a corkage fee, which is fine. If we did not finish the bottle at dinner, it was waiting for us at our table the next evening.

SCR: We like to have a glass of wine on the balcony before going to dinner, so several times brought an open bottle of wine with us to the dining room. Wouldn't worry about being "tasteless." Nobody reacted in any way, we didn't get charged a corkage fee, and our waiter poured our wine for us. If they had charged us the fee, we would have paid it no problem, and we did tip nicely. We only have the experience of one cruise, so not exactly experts, though!;)
