The Disney Cruise Line has updated its alcohol policy that governs what may or may not be brought on board, along with how it can be brought on board. The new policy went into effect on June 3, 2026. In short, it allows a guest to carry on one 6-pack of beer or 1 bottle of wine/champagne. Alcohol cannot be packed in checked luggage.
The updated policy can now be found on the Disney Cruise Line website in the FAQ section of the site. It reads as follows:
Disney Cruise Line Guests 21 years and older—or Guests 18 years and older on round-trip cruises from Singapore—may bring a maximum of one bottle of unopened wine or sparkling wine (no larger than 750 ml) or 6 beers (no larger than 12 ounces) on board at the beginning of the voyage. These beverages must be packed in carry-on (not checked) bags or luggage.
Guests who bring wine or sparkling wine on board and then wish to consume it in one of the dining rooms will be charged a corkage fee of $20 USD per bottle.
Please note:
- Alcohol packed in checked luggage will be removed and no compensation will be offered. Please be aware, Guests who have beverage containers in checked luggage have experienced damage to their belongings.
- All alcohol brought on board must be in an original unopened container. Partially used bottles and those in which the seal is broken are prohibited.
