HI KAREN!!

This is a frequent question...you can go back on these pages and find many responses...but the bottom line is:

Yes, you can bring on as much wine as you would like...however, you might have to indicate that it is for dining room consumption. Most people walk on at embarkation with wine in their carry-ons. It is best to pack some in your luggage before you go onboard. (Do not fly with bottles in your luggage and pack your bottles in protective bubble wrap in sealed zip lock bags.) We have never had any problem with Celebrity and we have seen people bring on a full case with no questions asked.

We did have a bottle of liquor confiscated when we came back to the ship after we stopped at an island (in October). There were other times that you could walk onboard during the cruise with no problems.

DO NOT CONSUME YOUR OWN IN PUBLIC AREAS!! We saw one group of 5-6 "jerks" trying to have their own cocktail party at the pool. This is a huge faux pas!! What you do in your own cabin should be your own business. So keep it in your cabin.

If you want to have your wine served in the dining room or specialty restaurant you can simply have it sent or bring it to the appropriate Sommelier and they will make all the arrangements for serving it to you. There is a $16.00 corkage fee per bottle but even this fee can be insignificant on a good bottle of wine...that you probably won't find on the Celebrity list.

Have fun!!
