They'll tell you No, but I always bring my own wine. The corkage the last time I sailed with RCCL was $8.00. It's $12.00 with Celebrity.

Just don't display it when you bring it on board.

When you say don't display the wine, what do you mean? Do you have to hide it? Do you keep it in carry on or regular luggage? Thanks.

I have a roller carry-on. I bubble wrap my wine, put it thru x-ray, and roll it on the ship.

Celebrity corkage fee is now $20...we got some wine from our travel agent delivered to our room ( and NOT ordered thru the cruise line ) and the wine steward said there was a $20 corkage fee...so we drank it in the room...

WOW! $20 now for corkage. I just cruised with them this past November.

I guess the only thing to do now is to drink it in your stateroom, and/or get a stateroom close to the dining room, bring a full glass with you to dinner, and go back to your stateroom to recharge your glass during the meal.
