Our last Disney cruise was in 2012,  looking forward to another in 2015.  I will follow fort Fiends to keep up with the latest rules.

Not sure when you last cruised, but this past summer, DCL cracked down on the collapsible coolers.  There were many reports of guests not allowing to board with them.

 

I have a collapsible cooler that I had used on our previous five DCL cruises, but for our August 2013 cruise I decided not to chance it.  I brought my booze on board in a wheeling duffle bag.  It wasn't cool, but I had it, and the fridges on the Dream work better than the old cooling boxes on the Magic and Wonder, so no problem.

 

Don't count on being able to use that collapsible cooler on your next cruise.

We have been on several Disney cruises.  At Port Canaveral we carried on in a collapsible cooler about 60 beers.  they want it to fit in the security screener for you carry on.  We stopped at Key West and just carried on 2 more cases of beer (no questions asked) I took a 5th of Vodka on in my carry on.  (FYI we were with a large group) I love that if you want a glass of wine or a pre dinner drink in your room you don't have to hide it.  For those of you that think you will buy it on the ship at the duty free shop DON'T.   They hold those purchases until you disembark.
