NCL Confiscates Booze in Checked Bags

Just returned from cruise on NCL.
Was surprised to see that they
confiscated lots of liquor that was
packed in checked bags. They
did xrays and anyone with what looked like a bottle had to report
to the office to open up bags and
remove booze. I saw at least two
dozen people in the line for this
check. First time I have
ever seen this done, as conventional l wisdom has been that checked bags
were the way to get booze aboard. Since they also check carryons, the only
way now would appear to be to hide pint bottles inside baggy shorts.

WHY do you sheeple put up with this kind of crap?

I saw that too, on NCL to Bermuda. There was a large pile of luggage with
big liquor stickers on them waiting to be claimed.

Hard to believe, but so typical of NCL. We have been shunning this line for
almost a decade,
There is not a price cheap enough to tempt us back. John

****** Why do passengers, that accept a contract of passage that states
that you can not bring booze aboard, then attempt to do just that. Why,
when this is discovered, should they have any basis to complain?

Why do you put up with us? Don't have a real life? Just enjoy
masterbating? A little of both?
