Oh yeah, one time I forgot to remove wine from my luggage (you are allowed to bring 2 bottles but it has to be removed and checked at boarding). They took the wine and left us a note in our state room that it would be available at the restaurant if we wanted to drink it for a corkage fee.
Yes, but they have drink packages you can buy. If you intend to drink a lot, you get the package. Can’t speak for all cruise lines, but the ones I’ve been on have different levels where you get drinks up to a certain cost for free, like $12 a drink. That price and below are free, anything above it you pay the difference. Higher levels cover a higher price per drink.
Yes and no. Kind of the same deal as the what the TSA does. Your luggage will get scanned via X-ray or whatever, then it’s up to the person looking at the monitor to determine if it needs to be opened or not.
These are useful for sneaking alcohol onto cruise ships.
Do cruise ships check your luggage?
Never knew

Do cruise ships charge for alcohol? I always assumed it was an open-bar affair.

That totally makes sense. Thanks for the informed reply!
Not sure, never been.
