Taking champagne on a plane?
Can I pack a bottle of champagne in my luggage to take on a plane - in the hold not hand luggage ?

From a pressure point of view the luggage hold is pressurised to the same level as the rest of the plane so the fact you can take it on as hand luggage (if purchased air-side) means it would be fine in hold luggage. Best to keep it upright though in case the cork does start to leak. Lost a little bit of whiskey once from a bottle of duty free with a slightly loose cork as it was on it's side

Put it in your hold luggage, wrap it in bubble wrap and then surround it with clothes and towels and it'll be fine. Even better if you have a hard case suitcase. I like your style! Good luck not getting spotted with last minute packing!

Unless your staying in a tent in the jungle Im sure what ever hotel you are in will arrange a bottle, on ice and in a bucket delivered to your room along with the correct champagne glasses
