Alcohol Ban Will Impact Castaway Cay & Lookout Cay for One Day
WDW News Today • • business
Key Points:
- On Tuesday, May 12, alcohol sales will be prohibited from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. at Disney’s private Bahamian ports, Castaway Cay and Lookout Cay at Lighthouse Point, due to The Bahamas' general election day restrictions.
- The ban on "intoxicating liquor" sales applies across The Bahamas, affecting all cruise line-operated private destinations, including those of Norwegian, Carnival, MSC, and Disney.
- Disney Cruise Line ships Disney Wish and Disney Fantasy will be docked at these ports on May 12, and while onshore alcohol sales will be banned, onboard alcohol service will continue as usual.
- Royal Caribbean has publicly acknowledged the ban and confirmed compliance with local laws, noting that alcohol sales aboard their ships will remain unaffected during the restriction.
- Passengers planning to visit these ports on election day should prepare for this temporary change, as it impacts the availability of alcohol only ashore, not onboard the ships.
