Default How Do I Get The Rum Home?

2) If we end up buying a couple of cases, how do we get it home. I know

the
ship will take it when we re-board and give it to us at the end, but what

about
the plane. Can we check it in with our other luggage? Ship it


home?
Carry it
on? There's only two of us, so are we limited by what we can carry?



We have transported 2 boxes of liquor on airplanes without a problem. Bring
bubble wrap and wrap each bottle with it ( or cushion with plastic bags/paper
towels) from the ship, then put the bottles back in the box and securely tape(
duct tape...borrow it from the ship) it closed. We place it in the overhead
compartment.Each box can 4 to 6 bottles. Bear in mind that most airlines will
only allow 1 carry on per person plus one small personal item like pocketbook/
laptop/briefcase, but I have found that this rule hasn't been enforced
recently. We travel with our 2 teens so they carry the reg carryons.
