Water, Wine, and Champagne

Each cruise line has their own policies that may change at any time. We highly suggest you check their website prior to boarding for the current restrictions. In general, most cruise lines will allow one bottle of wine or champagne per person which must be in your carry-on bag.  There might be a corkage fee so consider a bottle that is corkless.  Beer and/or hard liquor may NOT be brought on the ship.  Water and soda is typically allowed.
