Alcohol bottle for room

[ManonM]

Hi,

I've seen in some posts that you can order a bottle of alcohol (prior to departure) and have it delivered to your room once in international water if leaving from Texas. I've looked in the cruise planner and I don't see it under any category. I see bottles of wine and champagne only. Will it appear closer to sailing? Departing on Sep 29 on Liberty.

We've purchased the deluxe drink package for our room, but my in-laws will not drink very much, but would appreciate having a few drinks in their room without having to go to a bar to pick it up.

Thanks for any info/advice you can provide :)

Hi!

You can order bottles of alcohol (wine and champagne only,) as well as other treats and small gifts from the Royal gifts website. Here is a link to the onboard (waiting in your room) section of the shop: https://www.royalcaribbean.com/royalgifts/?icid=hpnvbr_pagehe_ryl_hm_awaren_955. Along with wine and champagne, there is alcohol and soda packages (rum and coke, vodka and sprite, etc.) to purchase. 

You could also bring up to two bottles of wine or champagne per stateroom on board with you on embarkation day..There is a corkscrew in your room, and if you want to enjoy it at a restaurant, there is a corkage fee that applies. Policy:  https://www.royalcaribbean.com/faq/questions/onboard-alcohol-guest-policy "On boarding day, guests may bring onboard two (2) 750 ml bottles of personal wine or champagne per stateroom in their carry-on luggage. If more than two bottles of wine or champagne are brought onboard, including any alcoholic beverages purchased in ports-of-call or in our onboard shops, they will be stored by the ship and delivered to your stateroom on your last day onboard."  However, this doesn't include hard liquor or beer, which cannot be brought on board and will be confiscated.

Strange, but for me there is no alcohol available on the Royal Gifts page. I wonder if more stuff will get added as we get closer to our sailing date.

I can see your sailing when I'm on the page, meaning it is available to order. Try this link, it goes directly to the wine and liquor section: https://www.royalcaribbean.com/royalgifts/wine-liquor. Hope this works!

Not all products are available on all ships. Exclusions should be listed in the notes in the description so be sure to check that too.

Thanks. I see the page, but it only lists wine. I've seen others post picks of their gift page and they have bottles of vodka, rum, etc.

Thanks. That must be it. Not available on my ship/sailing.

Yep. That's what I meant.

Are the bottles of wine that can be ordered full size (750 ml)? I see that the liquor is only 375 ml.

I believe a bottle of wine purchased onboard should be at, or right around, 750 ml.

Yes, the only time I've seen the 375ml onboard is when the had the mini bar menu.

Is anyone aware if you can bring more than 2 bottles for the 2 Bedroom Grand Suite since there are 2 rooms?

[Atlantix2000]

I've never heard anyone mention an exception for larger cabins.

Not by policy but if you have your two bottles In your carry on and the other couple has their two bottle in their carry on there may be no correlation that the four of you are in fact in the same cabin.

To clarify, I am asking about the size of the wine you can order from Gifts & Gear through the Cruise Planner.  We are bringing 2 bottles onboard in carryon luggage but want to have a bottle of wine and some chocolates delivered to our cabin from Gifts & Gear, also.

I was thinking about getting a bottle Champagnes in my room on the 1st day. I do have the Deluxe Beverage Package (Enjoy a discount of 40% off bottles of wine under $100 and 20% off bottles above $100 in bars and dining rooms.)

Will I get the 20% off from the  https://www.royalcaribbean.com/royalgifts/wine-liquor. Or is it better to wait until i am on the ship?

[smokeybandit]

Just bring a bottle of champagne with you.

Ya i could but I have a 2 hour drive and wanted it cold without using a cooler. 

[smokeybandit]

I doubt it'd be cold if you bought it on board.

[barjpoe]

If you do order a bottle to be delivered to your room on embarkation day. It may not be on ice or by the time you get to your room it will be sitting in bucket of cool water as the ice has melted over the cost of the day. Sometimes it could be delivered later in the day or cruise at that time it should be on ice.

They give you a bucket/cooler bag if you purchase it onboard..usually it isn't chilled when you buy it.  The discount is only available onboard, not to pre-purchase. Just bring 1 bottle per 21+ passenger.
