This is a very lengthy and informative (positive) review for you to enjoy.

My husband and I enjoyed a 7-day cruise aboard the Carnival Pride out of Baltimore, Maryland. We heard wonderful things about not only the ship, but accessing the port as well.

What drinks can be taken on board - We did all our research before leaving for our cruise. One question we had was - what drinks can we carry on board? We were each allowed one bottle of wine each AND in addition to that 12 cans of soda or mixers each. NO BOTTLES! NO BEER! The drinks we carried on board had to fit into our carry-on luggage...and they do go through the carry on luggage. My 12 pack of ginger ale was opened & searched.
