The cost of wine and champagnes on cruise ships (as with restaurants on land) is typically at least three times as high as they play for them at wholesale. To disguise the practice, many wineries use separate labels with different names for sale in restaurants on land and sea. This makes it difficult for customers to realize that they are paying perhaps three hundred and fifty percent more for the bottle than they would pay in their local retail store.

What size bottle of wine can you bring onboard your carnival cruise ship?
750 ml. However, some cruise lines prohibit bringing bottles of wine onboard for consumption. Therefore, they will hold the bottle until the passenger disembarks. It is wise to inquire beforehand.
On a cruise ship Can you have alchol in your cabin?
Absolutely. However, you must purchase 100% of the alcoholic beverages from the cruise line. You cannot bring any aboard. The exception is bottles of wine or champagne - which may be brought onboard and stored with the wine steward. If you request these bottles to be brought to your cabin or dining room, a corkage fee around $20/bottle may apply. Happy Sailing!
Can you take alcohol on a Carnival Cruise?
You can take one bottle of wine per person on the ship to drink while you are on -board. If you purchase any alcohol while in port, they will check it in when you re-board and will send it to your room the night before the cruise is over. If you are trying to save money on alcohol, I know people who have snuck alcohol on the ship in water bottles and such. If they notice that the bottles have been open they will make you dispose of the bottles before you board.
Why have wine prices come down?
I don't know about the U.S., but Canada's wine prices have gone up. Also I heard on the news that Australia had replaced corks in wine to caps and it's catching on, so good wine will be introduced in possibly plastic bottles (as they states on the news) with caps like pop bottles. My own opinion is I like glass wine bottles and feel the cork enhances the wine.
