We were just there 2 years ago and I remember reading about how much alcohol and cigs we were allowed to carry there and I think it was only one carton that was allowed, but you should call the airlines and find out for sure, but I do have to mention, how shocked my husband and I were, to see the prices of cigs and alcohol there, all I can say is Wow, way to expensive.

It sounds like you are doing it to avoid tax which im pretty sure is illegal, but give it a shot and let me know how it goes?

you can only bring one carton,after that you will be taxed on any others you have
