Jillyalex 6 Posted September 23, 2015 Report Share Posted September 23, 2015 Good evening, First cruise with Royal on the Oasis of the Seas.. Are we able to bring on any pop , water, or beer ? I have only been on Carnival Cruises so I don't know Royal's take on this.. Thank you, Jill Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Michael Vitale 239 Posted September 23, 2015 Report Share Posted September 23, 2015 If you attempt to bring beer on board, you might not get your bags until Tuesday lol. You might even wind up in the brig. No, beer is not permitted. Water & soda as you will undoubtedly hear from others is mostly hit & miss. I will tell you this, if you smile at the porter, and tip generously, they may just allow you to avoid security with your water/soda, and bring it directly to your cabin. They did for me a couple of weeks ago. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
jticarruthers 846 Posted September 23, 2015 Report Share Posted September 23, 2015 The water/soda seems to be allowed most of the time, seems like they generally only get strict about it around Springbreak cruises for the most part. With that said they are specifically in the rules as not allowed so if for some reason they do decide to enforce the rules you are out of luck. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
DocLC 2,013 Posted September 23, 2015 Report Share Posted September 23, 2015 Any form of alcohol, including beer, is definitely not allowed and will be confiscated. And while bringing on water and soda is officially against the rules, I haven't had any problems in my past two cruises this year bringing it on although I bought it in port rather than bringing it on on embarkation day. If you go in with the attitude that it might not be allowed on and that you might be out a few bucks, you'll be fine. As a side note, Carnival no longer allows guests to bring on water in any form but you can prepurchased it cheaply ($3.95 for a case). Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Matt 10,653 Posted September 23, 2015 Report Share Posted September 23, 2015 Bringing water and soda is officially not allowed, but in practice they let it through. I'd recommend bringing either with you in your carry on luggage. My wife put the water in the checked luggage on our last cruise and I got called down to the "naughty room". The crew member opened up the bag, saw it was just water and gave me the luggage and water with no problem. Beer is definitely not allowed. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Michel 46 Posted September 24, 2015 Report Share Posted September 24, 2015 Can someone back me on with this; I think you can still bring 2 bottles of wine in your carry on luggage on embarkation day. That is 2 bottles total per stateroom. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

That is 2 bottles total per stateroom. You are correct. In addition, there's no longer a corkage fee. Unlike other lines, it's two per cabin, not one per adult, which helps if you have two cabins booked (e.g., one for the kids) as you can double your wine allowance.

Michael Vitale 239 Posted September 24, 2015 Report Share Posted September 24, 2015 Doc, I assume there's no twist off fee for cheap wine ? LOL DocLC, Jerel and Galveston Steve 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
