Review summary

can't believe there are so many restrictions on these american cruise lines. seems carry on water and soda are restricted and people have to try and sneak on alcohol. also almost everything seems to be extra $$. do yanks put up with being nickel and dimed ? seems so I'll stick to sailing out of southampton uk and stick with reputable cruise line

For whatever reasons the US is quite Puritanical about alcohol, drinking age 21 or even 25 in many States so perhaps a follow on from that, as well as looking after the profits.

ROYAL CARIBBEAN are also the same they confiscate any thing that you are not allowed to take on board. P and O and Princess are quite relaxed on this matter I've been told.

I'm with you, the American cruise lines ie Princess charge $13 dollars a day for gratuities.
