Can I take my Duty free wine

Would you guys help out? Are we allowed to take our Duty Free alcohol on board or do we have to hide it in our luggage. Off on the Carnival spirit , starting our cruise in Hawaii, then cruising to Vancouver, and Alaska. This is a big tour for us as we are from Australia, will need a couple of drinks!!!

Wine and Champagne can be brought on board in clear view........hard liquor will need to be put in the checked luggage.

Thanks Lisa. You have obviously been on a carnival cruise. Do they allow us to take our wine cask?(wine in the cardboard box, better quality of course!!) Its not that I dont mind paying for it but it would be so nice to sit on our balcony with a drink in hand.

I don't see a problem....after all it is wine!

We've had boxed wine in our luggage and it made it through all the scans with no problem.

wine is not a problem, the wine casks can be carried on in plain sight.
