I am leaving from Amsterdam - Am I likely to get caught bringing marijuana onboard?

Question

I am going on a cruise that leaves from Amsterdam. Am I allowed to bring legally purchased marijuana onto the ship? Am I likely to get caught attempting it? How seriously do they check your luggage?

Answer 1

You might not get caught bringing it on the ship in Amsterdam.  But you might get caught when you get off the ship on your last day.

Answer 2

i went to jamacia on a cruise and i brought some back on the ship there wasnt any dogs or anything like i  tohught there would be i just scoped it out first to see any dogs if there was i would have diched it .smoking on the ship (just steam up the shower and smoke in the bathroom) and dont bring any off the ship then you might get caught(customs is alot diffent)

Answer 3

You will be committing a crime if you do that.

Even if you are not caught while boarding, you certainly will be caught while smoking onboard.  You will be confined to the security cabin and put off the ship at the next port - where you will be handed over to the local police for punishment.

Answer 4

Cruise lines tell us that dogs smell the luggage, but I've never seen them check the carry-on. Taking it off the ship after you get back would be more risky than taking it on board. You might want to watch the movie Midnight Express before you take grass across international boundaries. If you decide to blaze up while on board, the best place would be the sports deck at night. Also, do it on the down wind side so no one smells it.

Answer 5

For me it is too much of a risk. I have seen several times dogs sniffing luggage at the port, usually a beagle dog. It may be legal in Amsterdam, but a cruise ship goes by international laws such as you still must be 21 to drink alcohol. because of the strong smell, where you lit up would be a big problem too. Since you pay a good amount of money for your cruise, I sure would not risk it.

Answer 6

To be honest I would'nt risk it. You may be fine etting it onboard the ship, but when you get to the port in the UK you may be the unlucky one that get's searched. People assume that it is only the security at the airports that have the tighter security and the more restrictions but the ports and larger train stations have also tightened up their belt. Also if you are thinking of doing it onboard the ship the think of the other passengers. You would be foolish if you are going to do it as if you get caught you could face a criminal record!!! bear it in mind !
