Johar4469 Posted March 22 Report Share Posted March 22 If we were to bring wine with us on board do we have to drink it in the restaurant. I know they charge a corkage fee or something but what of we just drink it at night in our room. Also I'm guessing I can't bring a wine opener can i Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt Posted March 22 Report Share Posted March 22 If you open and drink the wine in your room, no charge. KJ777 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And don't forget to ask the steward for wine glasses. Needing glasses when requesting a corkscrew might seem intuitive, but it's better to make a clear request. ellcee 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
loki007 Posted March 22 Report Share Posted March 22 We take a small opener on board with us in our luggage. Never had a problem. SebagoSue 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bytheseashorenb Posted March 23 Report Share Posted March 23 We will be going on RC for the first time in May. However, on other cruise ships, I have filled my wine glass in my cabin and then walked to the dining room. They don't mind as you could have walked from one of the bars. It helps save a little bit of money when ordering wine with dinner if you are starting with a glass of wine from your cabin.

We usually pack a couple of them with us. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Va4fam Posted March 25 Report Share Posted March 25 You can bring a wine opener or better yet, get the bottles with twist off caps. We fill up glasses and take them to dinner or shows. On Oasis earlier this month, our room attendant saw the bottles of wine and left us 2 wine glasses each day. That was unexpected but much appreciated.

BrianAlt Posted March 25 Report Share Posted March 25 They're supposed to charge a corking fee, but it usually doesn't happen. (Your mileage may vary.) WAAAYTOOO 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also I'm guessing I can't bring a wine opener can i Didn't get charged a corking fee in either of the specialty restaurants we took our sparkling wine too. (Sept 2021 - Odyssey) I was worried about it and we did try to open the wine in our room but the cork in the first bottle tore; the second bottle I had to run back to get after we had already started dinner so no time to open it before hand.
