Items to Bring Aboard

[Lisah101]

With all the new changes I can no longer find anything on Celebrity's website that says we can bring on limited quantities of soda or water.  Does anyone have a reliable source for this?

[Bo1953]

There is nor ever any limit, beyond reasonable, quantities of of soda or water which one can bring aboard...

 

It is generally accepted that one will bring aboard what they can carry although often times a porter will check it for, if they choose to.

 

You have found, in the past, a policy statement about this on X's website??? Interesting to say the least.

 

Cheers and bon voyage

Bo, my memory, is that X, like RCI, once had an official policy prohibiting alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages. As bad as both lines have been at contradictory information, I don't believe they ever had a policy on how to do something they told you not to do.

 

The non-alcoholic piece was clearly never (maybe rarely?) enforced...

 

The FAQs are silent on anything but alcohol today.

Hi, I was wondering the same thing. In the past, we have brought a 24 pack of bottled water and a 12 pack of diet soda, both in the original package. Packed them in a sturdy reusable-type bag taped closed and put a luggage tag on it. Porter took it without a problem. I did find this article: https://familycruisecompanion.com/can-you-bring-bottled-water-on-a-cruise/#Celebrity_Cruises_Bottled_Water_Policy

mark thank you for the info...

 

I have only been sailing X for nine (9) years and never encountered the policy on either alcoholic or non-alcoholic beverages...

 

We brought our wine, two (2) bottles per cabin upon embarkation, at that time, now it is two (2) bottles per cabin permitted,

 

Cheers and bon voyage

Just as an FYI, RCI has had for several years at least a policy that you can bring onboard 12 - 17 oz bottles of soft drinks (soda or water).

 

Maybe Celebrity will add such a restriction to match Royal.

 I think you meant to say now it is two bottles per guest vice cabin.

 No worries.  Lately I have found myself easily distracted by some nice GSM from Cooper's Hawk.

I saw this in my cruise documents, and was surprised.  Is this an error or is it truly 2 bottles of wine per person, instead of stateroom?

Per person is correct.

This is a nice change.  Being Elite, with the free drinks from 5-7, and bringing on 2 bottles of wine per person, there is no need for a drink package.
