Save this for your cruise
Can you bring your own drinks on Carnival?
Partly, and it is the cheapest drink on the ship. What you carry aboard is drink you never buy at the prices above.
Alcohol you may bring
One sealed 750ml bottle of wine or champagne per guest 21 or over, in carry-on at embarkation only.
Soft drinks you may bring
Up to 12 sealed cans or cartons of 12oz (354ml) or less per guest, at embarkation, in carry-on.
What is refused
All other alcohol is confiscated and discarded with no refund, including fortified wines over 15% ABV. Non-alcoholic drinks in glass or plastic bottles are refused; cans and cartons only.
From Carnival's own published policy, read Aug 2026. Policies change, so check the line's page before you pack.
