gailforce2000 Posted October 3, 2014 #1 Share Posted October 3, 2014 How much bottled water are you allowed to bring onboard at embarkment? Also can you bring soda onboard? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spookwife Posted October 3, 2014 #2 Share Posted October 3, 2014 OFFICIALLY: none. UNOFFICIALLY: a 'reasonable' amount. if they do not carry your preferred brand then a 6 or 12 pack of soda is acceptable. bring several cases of either is over the top however if sailing at certain times( Spring break, etc) they really will enforce the ban on bringing anything on board.

eddy767300 Posted October 4, 2014 #3 Share Posted October 4, 2014 We were on Oasis July 2013, I unpacked a case of 24 bottles of water and placed them into carry on bag along with 2 bottles of Champagne. At security the bag was checked to make sure it actually was water and then we were allowed to proceed without any problems. My view is that if they wanted to confiscate the water they can, it only costs $5 at most, but like I say we had no problems. Since then we have purchased the drinks packages that include water so have not had to bother with carrying anything onboard ourselves. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big_G Posted October 4, 2014 #4 Share Posted October 4, 2014 In the past we put a luggage tag on a case of water and it was delivered to the cabin. Recently we've read that porters at Port Canaveral weren't accepting them and passengers had to carry them on the ship. We'll find out tomorrow.

Ladysilver Posted October 4, 2014 #5 Share Posted October 4, 2014 We always bring a case of water and a 12-pack of Coke. Tape a luggage tag across the top of the water and it will get to your room along with your luggage. We've never had a problem. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

griffy116 Posted October 4, 2014 #7 Share Posted October 4, 2014 Please report back. We've got to board at Port Canaveral in a few weeks. We have had problems ONLY at Port Canaveral. Because of that, we put the cokes and water in an empty duffle bag and put a luggage tag on it. That's the only way we've gotten it to us at Port Canaveral without a problem.

So if they are in an actual bag of some sort, they go through? The porters don't want to handle them if they are not able to pick them up easily? Just trying to picture this...

Had to retrieve it at the naughty room, but they let us keep the water once they confirmed it was water. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plan on carrying it around with you.....in PC there is no more putting a luggage tag on a case of water and having them deliver it. My suggestion would be to put iti some kind of rolling carryon to make it easier to drag around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dst Posted October 4, 2014 #11 Share Posted October 4, 2014 Interesting thread; thanks - are we allowed to bring on a bottle of wine or champagne without any problems......I'm a bit of a wine snob and usually like to bring a good bottle or two Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

krisko Posted October 4, 2014 #14 Share Posted October 4, 2014 Could I put a small case of water in a checked bag? This would be out of FLL in a few weeks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clarea Posted October 4, 2014 #15 Share Posted October 4, 2014 Could I put a small case of water in a checked bag? This would be out of FLL in a few weeks. Probably OK. Worst case is they make you go to the naughty room and confiscate it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sauvichick Posted October 5, 2014 #16 Share Posted October 5, 2014 We brought 2 cases of water with 24 bottles each. And put luggage tags on both. We were not sure whether or not being in a grand suite made a difference. We also brought 2 bottles of wine and there was no problem with that.

Sorry Bob, we didn't have time to pickup water this trip but we did see a few cases in the Windjammer and none on the luggage carts.
