*Observe: Edited and reposted because moderators don't appreciate information technology when yous talk almost other drugs Hello Everyone,
And then as virtually all of you probably exercise non know I made a post a while ago about how I planned to sneak various items onto a prowl ship (weed/booze); well I finally went on said cruise. In my prior research I was unable to find an verbal respond on what exactly security looks like going on to a prowl ship so I figured I would finally reply that question in this post for whomever is curious. Delight note that this cruise occurred on a Carnival cruise ship so boarding security on other ships may vary. Please also note that this cruise embarked and disembarked in California, so marijuana is legal on land-level (although still technically illegal on the federal level) (also for those reading this for years to come, this post was written in 2017). The cruise visited Cabo San Lucas and Puerto Vallarta in United mexican states.
Prior to the cruise I researched what security may look similar, I got a lot of conflicting information and was unable to go a straight answer. I figured that if I was going to bring anything marijuana-related onboard edibles would be the way to go. I was going on the cruise with several extended family members so if I did get defenseless trying to sneak anything on board it would be especially bad. Although marijuana is legal on the state level in California, I causeless that we would be going by US Customs & Border Patrol (a federal agency) so if I got caught doing anything I would be prosecuted on a federal level (marijuana is still illegal on a federal level). Afterwards scaring myself with the thought of x-rays, drug dogs, and pat downs, I finally decided that all the anxiety was not worth getting high in one case, and then I decided I would only sneak alcohol on-board as if you become caught with that they only confiscate it.
So what does security really look like? Yous walk through a metal detector and your baggage goes through an x-ray… that's it. No body ten-rays as seen at airports. During both embarkment, getting on and off the send at ports, and disembarkment I saw no signs of drug dogs whatsoever. I walked through the metal detector with my chugalug on, shoes on, and wallet in my pocket and it did not fix off the detector. I easily could have snuck weed and a glass pipe in by taping it somewhere to my torso, putting information technology in my underwear, or just straight-up putting it in my pocket. Please annotation that if you go this route that y'all make sure ALL metal goes through the x-ray as my grandpa gear up off the detector and they performed a pat-down on him.
When nosotros got to the port the line to check a pocketbook was extremely long and then I decide just to acquit information technology on-board with me. I had an elaborate plan to sneak on vodka in a mouthwash bottle by conscientious removing the safety-seal, using nutrient coloring, and putting the seal back on. This was all unnecessary as my bag just went through the x-ray with zero concern. I besides had a plan to sneak cans of beer in by taking apart a soda 12-pack and replacing all the cans except the two where the handle is with beer then gluing the 12-pack back together. Well this was successful merely I would not recommend it as I got extremely lucky. After you send the pack through the 10-ray a security officer opens up the end to brand sure it was sealed. The cans I used were green and the usual color of of soda I brought are yellow. He just tore a slight amount of the cease off of my soda pack and a obvious green can was at that place, but he did not notice and gave it back to me. The person behind me also had a 12-pack and the security guard ripped the unabridged end off of his and cans came pouring out (of soda though and so obviously he wasn't trying to sneak anything on).
I as well constitute an respond to the question of what would happen if you did go defenseless attempting to smuggle weed on. My uncle said that he was sitting in his cabin unpacking when he heard "What?!? They took my weed!" in the motel side by side to him. And then obviously it appears that if they do find weed in your suitcase they volition but confiscate it (information technology sounds like this was the instance with a checked bag, but I dubiety the reaction would exist any different with a comport-on, just a bit more embarrassing).
Every bit far as weed on the ship actually goes I wouldn't say it is mutual but information technology definitely is there. Someone was smoking on their balcony every now-and-then over the class of the entire cruise and our entire expanse of the ship could smell it (from our balconies). No one really seemed to care. I even yelled out "sharing is caring" once and a lady on her balcony below us laughed (I practise not believe she was the culprit).
We talked to a grouping in their teens playing basketball on the commencement night and they said that they snuck on weed but simply a small amount they had already smoked because they were afraid they may need to ditch it when going through security. Another guy I talked to snuck on a dab pen and a quarter of dabs (his cousin had information technology at the time then he was unable to share). My brother actually ended up playing basketball game ane night with a staff member who brought on herb and a portable vaporizer. He requite united states both a hit on the last night of the prowl while nosotros were on the deck.
The simply thing sadder than the security getting on the ship is United states Customs and Edge Patrol during disembarkment. All they exercise is enquire for your drivers license/birth certificate/passport and and then ask what you lot bought in United mexican states (yous accept a limit on how much you tin bring back and they want to make sure you are not trying to dodge taxes). After that you just walk out of the terminal with no additional security.
And that is all I actually accept to say. I had a lot of anxiety nearly bringing weed on a send and what security would look similar and then I hope this post tin can reduce feet for others. Also, please remember that these are the particular circumstances of my experience so other cruise lines/locations may vary. Hopefully they don't run into this mail and revamp their security, haha.
