Guests agree not to bring alcoholic or non-alcoholic beverages on board for consumption or for any other use except as follows: For Guests of legal drinking age, an allowance of one (1) bottle of wine or champagne (750 mL in volume or less) per Guest per Voyage may be presented to security during embarkation.

On a Princess Cruise in 2026, you are permitted to bring a limited amount of your own alcohol, but the policy is quite specific to prevent loss of onboard revenue. Every guest of legal drinking age is allowed to bring one bottle (750ml) of wine or champagne per voyage without paying a fee, provided it is consumed in their stateroom. If you wish to bring that bottle to a dining room or specialty restaurant, you will be charged a $15 corkage fee. You can technically bring additional bottles of wine or champagne, but each additional bottle will incur a mandatory $15 fee upon embarkation, regardless of where you drink it. Beer, spirits, and liquor are strictly prohibited; any such items found in your luggage during the security scan will be confiscated and either discarded or returned at the end of the cruise. Additionally, any alcohol purchased at a port of call or from the ship's duty-free shop will be held by security and delivered to your cabin on the final night, ensuring you don't "BYOB" during the actual voyage.
