teamteddybear Posted September 28, 2016 #1 Share Posted September 28, 2016 Hello. My wife is a Pepsi drinker. She won't touch Coke products. I see that Celebrity is a Coke cruise line. Will Celebrity allow us to bring our own Pepsi aboard -- say 4 six packs of 20 oz. plastic bottles packed into a roll-aboard suitcase? I cannot find anything about this on the website -- only a prohibition against bringing aboard one's own alcoholic beverages. Appreciate any replies regarding Pepsi, especially from those who have had success or those who have been prevented from doing so.

CruisingChick Posted September 28, 2016 #2 Share Posted September 28, 2016 Yes, they will let you. If you carry it on they will make you open your suitcase and check the bottles to make sure they are sealed and you are not trying to smuggle alcohol onboard. At least they do that to us when we carry our water on-board each sailing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would we send the roll-aboard (unlocked) through security with our suitcases (clothing) and after inspection it would be delivered to the stateroom? Or do carry the roll-aboard with us as we board the ship and it is searched at that time (to verify non-alcoholic beverages)? Thanks for clarification so as not to upset the passengers in line behind us!! :) Gil teamteddybear Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If your case is to big you will just tag it and send it with your other suitcases and it will be screened then and delivered to your stateroom. They might pull and hold the bag though and call you down to security to open it up to make sure you are not trying to smuggle alcohol on board. Our water always fits in our carryon so we just bring it with us. Others who bring cases of water just put luggage tags on the case and they are delivered to the stateroom.

Baded Posted September 28, 2016 #6 Share Posted September 28, 2016 Yes, they may let you bring your Pepsi on the ship and then again they may not. Depends on who is checking the bags at that moment. They may send you a letter stating why, after all they want you spend money on the ship. Good luck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lvz2cruz Posted September 28, 2016 #7 Share Posted September 28, 2016 If you bring twelve packs of cans you can put a luggage tag on them and have them delivered to room. Since you can't go to cabin immediately on boarding this would be easier than lugging around a few hours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ClaudiaB Posted September 28, 2016 #8 Share Posted September 28, 2016 We used to bring a case of water and a case of Diet Coke (pre beverage package) and put luggage tags on them and leave them with the luggage porters. You don't need to pack it in a suitcase. You can bring as much as you want. It will show up in your cabin with your luggage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Celebrity Cruises Posted September 30, 2016 #10 Share Posted September 30, 2016 Hello. My wife is a Pepsi drinker. She won't touch Coke products. I see that Celebrity is a Coke cruise line.

Gil teamteddybear Unfortunately, we are unable to accommodate brand preferences by individual guests, however if we do not have the type of non-alcoholic beverage the guest prefers onboard, the guest may bring their desired non-alcoholic beverage with them. There's no limit to the amount of non-alcoholic beverages guests can bring onboard with them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cocobakerchica Posted September 30, 2016 #12 Share Posted September 30, 2016 Like the other posters have said, it would definitely be easier to buy your Pepsi in the 12 pack can case(s) and stick a luggage tag(s) with your name and room number written on it(extras are always available at the dock if you need them), let it go with your larger luggage and have it delivered to your room. Also, you can request your cabin steward to empty your refrigerator of the minibar items when you meet him/her, you can store your beverages in it, and your DW can enjoy a cold soda anytime. Enjoy your cruise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duanerice1 Posted September 30, 2016 #13 Share Posted September 30, 2016 I used the roll aboard luggage and filled it with Diet Pepsi. This was before we got the beverage package. Works well. I too am a Pepsi drinker but for the cruise I can handle Coke products. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johhnnyt Posted October 1, 2016 #14 Share Posted October 1, 2016 One of the hotel directors that I've known for years arranged a surprise for me on an European sailing on Celebrity. When I arrived at my room, there was a pyramid of pepsi bottles (I think 36 bottles) artfully stacked as a surprise for me. Made me laugh so hard. She's such a great person Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
