Are you planning a Carnival cruise and wondering if you can bring your own soda on board? The answer is yes, you can! But there are some rules and restrictions to keep in mind.
What are the rules for bringing soda on a Carnival cruise?
Carnival allows guests to bring up to 12 cans or cartons of non-alcoholic beverages per person. These must be in sealed, original packaging.
You can bring soda, juice, and water as long as they are not in glass bottles. Glass containers are not allowed on board for safety reasons.
Why would I want to bring my own soda?
While Carnival offers a variety of soft drinks on board, they can be expensive if purchased individually. Bringing your own soda can save you money and allow you to enjoy your favorite beverages without breaking the bank.
How do I pack my soda for a Carnival cruise?
When packing your soda, it’s important to keep in mind the weight restrictions set by the airline you are flying with. You don’t want to go over their weight limit and incur additional fees. Once you arrive at the port, your bags will go through an x-ray machine and any prohibited items will be confiscated.
To avoid any issues, pack your soda in your checked luggage instead of carry-on. Make sure each can or carton is wrapped in bubble wrap or clothing to prevent damage during transport.
Can I bring a cooler for my sodas?
Carnival does not permit guests to bring coolers on board unless they are used for medical purposes. However, you may use small coolers (12″x12″x12″ or smaller) for storing medication or baby food.
What about bringing other beverages?
If you’re a coffee lover, you’ll be happy to know that Carnival allows guests to bring their own coffee makers and filters. However, they do not allow any other electrical appliances such as blenders or hot plates.
