Cruise Line Alcohol Policies

Do you know your cruise line's alcohol policy?

Drinking rules certainly vary across lines -- European companies like Costa Cruises may lower the drinking age to 18 when sailing from non-U.S. ports; luxury outfits often include open bars, and allow for "bring your own booze" as well.

And some lines have even outlawed bringing wine onboard, something that's almost always acceptable (there is, however, usually a corkage fee assessed for consuming your wine in the dining room).

Cruise Critic breaks down the rules into 3 main categories:

• Drinking Age

• Rules for Bringing Booze Onboard

• And All Things Wine
