Oakman58 Posted January 8, 2020 #1 Share Posted January 8, 2020 I'm thinking my little alcohol filled dark chocolates will make it through NCL security without being confiscated. Yes, I really am a chocoholic. Link to post Share on other sites

We passed those out during a cabin crawl we participated in. Link to post Share on other sites

Yes, I really am a chocoholic. They will probably make it through without notice. But, the ship has lots of chocolate. And the ship has lots of liquor. Leave you goodies at home.

Yes, I really am a chocoholic. Maybe. If they are left in the original box, the box is usually clearly labeled with a warning about the alcohol content and prohibiting the sale to minors. The little bottles are clearly labeled with the liquor name. In your carry on, I wouldn't be surprised if they were taken. They might make it through in the checked luggage.

Starry Eyes Posted January 8, 2020 #7 Share Posted January 8, 2020 59 minutes ago, BostonGal35 said: you should be ok in your checked bag, carry on it may get pulled. I believe both checked bags and carry on bags are subjected to screening. If one puts the items in the checked bag in a warm climate, there is a risk the chocolates will melt while bag is in hot conditions, so in some situations the carryon bag would be the appropriate choice for chocolates. When the bag is crated, the foil wrapping may or may not catch the eye of the security personnel, whether carryon or checked. They could then ask for a visual inspection. As the item contain liquor, it could be confiscated. If this really about the chocolate, it would be wiser to bring quality chocolates without real liquor so you know it can come aboard with you.

Yes you can if you are on the Jan 26th Epic sailing and if I get them through security. Edited January 8, 2020 by Oakman58 3 Link to post Share on other sites
mjkacmom Posted January 8, 2020 #10 Share Posted January 8, 2020 Our Costco sells them, and our Costco doesn’t have a liquor license and can’t sell liquor. I only have 3 bottles left from Christmas. Link to post Share on other sites
dmdiver Posted January 8, 2020 #11 Share Posted January 8, 2020 If you were sailing with me, I would suggest bringing them and if they won't allow them, I'll help you eat them all before boarding! 3 Link to post Share on other sites

The good stuff will be in liquor stores. Link to post Share on other sites

I’d compare the quality of anything chocolate on NCL to the quality of their shampoo and body wash! Link to post Share on other sites
Love my butler Posted January 9, 2020 #18 Share Posted January 9, 2020 Stash them in your prison pouch and you should have no issues. Link to post Share on other sites
libtrek Posted January 9, 2020 #19 Share Posted January 9, 2020 Oh oh, was just thinking how good they look, then realized I am sailing with you. I would put in checked bag and see what happens knowing they might confiscate them. Not sure if they would keep them or give back to you at the end of the cruise. Can’t wait, only a couple of weeks to wait. Mary Link to post Share on other sites
e150club Posted January 9, 2020 #20 Share Posted January 9, 2020 Perhaps you can try gift wrapping the box with a card in a checked bag. Link to post Share on other sites
