I bring bottles of water on board with me on almost every cruise. Many cruise ports, especially in Europe, sell it to returning passengers at the dock (at inflated prices compared to the region, but still significantly less than on board ship). I’ve never been stopped taking water on board, even when I took a flat of water or about a dozen large Fiji water bottles (that was fun, in San Juan...).
Now that I have status I get three free bottles of water on board every day (or alcoholic drinks, though I tend to avoid those), but it’s still more convenient (and better quality) for me to bring my own.
