You can bring one bottle of champagne or wine aboard per person. Not the real stuff like Bushmill's or Makers Mark!!

That is correct also - can't take booze onboard. However, you would be amazed at how big they make those Listerine bottles these days...

They even 'hold' booze you buy on the ship or in ports until you leave the ship at your debarkation station. Got my fill of cuban cigars though and smoked the last one entering Galveston channel. My orthopedic doc says they don't even bother to take them away from you anymore if it is only a box or less. Not sure I want to test that yet...

Nope - no guns/weapons. HSA/TSA scans luggage and you pass through metal detectors.
