RCL Liquor Policy

[retdon]

Coming back to RCL for a family cruise and after being on Holland America so many times we will miss their policy allowing passengers to purchase a bottle of liquor for consumption in their cabin.

 

Has anyone heard any rumors, have any thoughts or know if RCL may change their policy and allow this????? It sure does cuts down on the "smugglers" and there is no problem with "drunks" on HAL.

No one can predict the future.

 

As for the present...No

NO. ;)

 

RC is pushing drink packages as THEIR solution to the "smuggling problem".

 

I have no idea if it has helped with that, but I sure see A LOT of people with the packages.

Holland America allows this, didn't know Celebrity did. As for drink packages, we like our cocktails but those packages run $50+ a day per person, that is a lot of drinks, more than we could handle.

At current prices it's only 4 drinks. Have 5 (or some water, soda, coffee etc) and you're in front

I think that thier insurance will not allow them to sell bottles after the Smith incident a few years ago
