Calling all wine enthusiasts sailing with Carnival! 🍇 Whether you love a bold red, a crisp white, or a little bubbly — here’s how to make the most of your wine experience at sea! 🍾 ✨
Bringing Wine & Champagne Onboard:
🍷 Each adult (21+) may bring one 750ml bottle of wine or champagne in their carry-on bag at embarkation.
🧳Must be carried onboard. Do not pack it in your checked luggage!
🚫 No boxed wine.
Enjoying Your Wine:
🥂 Sip it in your stateroom at no extra charge.
🍴 Bring it to the dining room or steakhouse — but note there’s usually a $15 corkage fee per bottle.
💡 Corkage-Saving Tip:
Pour a glass of wine in your cabin and carry the glass to dinner to enjoy your wine with your meal without paying the corkage fee!
⚠️ Just don’t take glassware into pool areas for safety.
🍾 Unfinished Wine? No Problem!
If you buy a bottle of wine in the Main Dining Room (MDR) or steakhouse and don’t finish it, the wait staff will cork it and hold it for another night — or even have it waiting at another dining venue the next day. 🍷✨
Money Saving Wine Tips:
🍾 Buy wine by the bottle instead of by the glass to save money — you’ll get more value and flexibility.
🍇 Explore Carnival’s “Cruise the Vineyard” wine packages, available in Standard and Premium tiers, featuring curated reds, whites, and sparkling wines at discounted prices.
🍷 Book the Steakhouse or specialty restaurant on the first night — you might receive a FREE bottle of wine as a thank-you! 🎉
Essentials to Pack:
◾️A reusable wine tote or sleeve for safe travel.
◾️A small non-electric corkscrew — it’s allowed!
◾️Your favorite wine stopper to keep it fresh.
🌅 Cheers to Sea Breezes & Sunset Sips!
Relax on your balcony with a glass of wine, sip a mimosa in the morning, or toast to another perfect day at sea. 🌊🍾✨
Who else loves ending the day — or starting the morning — with a perfect pour at sea? 🙋♀️🙋♂️
