I wasnt 100% sure if you could pack liqour in your checked luggage or your carry on i was thinking of bring 2 or three bottles to last me for the week.
Can you bring Liqour
Never tried it. I usually buy it when I get there.
What if the bottles broke and all your clothes smelled like booze! :-(
Can you bring Liqour
There is definitely no issues with domestic flights. Make sure you pack it with a lot of protection.
You can pack and check liquor - generally speaking - (I do not advise carrying on any liquor - bad experience back in 1999 flight to the Sugar Bowl- the Crown Bottles were a%26#39; Flyin!)
There are ';state'; liquor laws that may prohibit interstate transfer but as the Vagas vacationer for personal consumption - you should have no problems - at the airport (Packed and Checked Luggage ).
Hotels have a right to charge a ';cork%26#39;ing'; charge or fee and can prohibit you from bringing in outside bottles. They may charge you a fee for outside bottles! there is a whole list of %26#39;things they can do%26#39; but reality is if you bring a bottle of Champagne, wine, or liter of whisky, you are going to be o.k. There is always the breakage issue mentioned above but even if you buy liquor on the strip or in Vegas, you are going to %26#39;officialy%26#39; be subject to the hotel charge issue.
Don%26#39;t worry - bring what you want - pack it well - otherwise buy it in vegas and have a great time.
WOW, hotels actually do that?!
We always bring beer and wine to our room and keep in the fridge or a cooler and never had any problems. Pretty much do it wherever we go on vacation.
I would be really upset if I was charged for this and probably would NOT stay at that hotel again.
This is the second time I%26#39;ve heard someone say a hotel can charge a corkage fee. That is B.S. A restaurant can charge this if you decide to bring a bottle of your favorite vintage along for dinner. But a hotel can not charge you for what you consume in your room, or in their lobby as far as that goes. As long as you are 21 years or older you can drink as much as you want no matter where you bought it. But if you are drunk and obnoxious security may escort you to your room, or out of the hotel if you%26#39;re not a guest.
Thanks, VM. You%26#39;re the best!!!!
I was starting to get a little nervous. LOL
Don%26#39;t want to get in trouble!!!
There are ';Travelers'; bottles you can buy.... fifths of whatever in blastic bottles instead of glass. that is the way to go if you want to carry on if you ask me.
I am going to take Vegas man%26#39;s advise and instead of paying $300 for a bottle of Absolute at RA or Curve, I am just going to pay my $20 cover, and walk through with my liter of Grey Goose! My Brother will carry the Igloo full of Becks!
When they try to stop me I will refer them to this forum thread.
Thanks Vegas Man!
Weljef, your last response fails to appreciate the difference between a hotel and a restaurant or club. The hotel cannot charge a guest a ';corkage'; charge for the booze that the guest consumes in his/her room. The restaurant (or in your example, club) can forbid you from bringing it in and/or can impose a service charge.
Bar16, I would not bother to drag any bottles with me, unless there was something special that I couldn%26#39;t buy at a normal liquor store. For the normal brands of booze, I%26#39;d just buy in Vegas. Too much trouble to drag the bottles with me (and risk breakage); you think Jersey prices are a heck of a lot better than Vegas prices? I don%26#39;t even bother to buy booze duty-free in the Caribbean any more (unless it is something I can%26#39;t buy at home) -- to save $5 on a bottle, I%26#39;m going to drag it thousands of miles? No, thanks.
Wel,
I see you%26#39;re from Tejas, home of the Drive-Thru liquor stores. Explains a LOT. ;-) As I said, lobby or room, not a nightclub. You might want to get a bigger Stetson next time, me thinks your current on is a bit tight.
Joe
