I’m so sorry, I got off the ship before seeing this request.

I’m currently on the MSC Meraviglia. I thought you would all appreciate seeing the current bar menus. Helps to determine which package to purchase. As you can see, both the strawberry daiquiri and pina colada are included on the easy package. Which is often a point of confusion. Easy package includes drinks up to $7.5 Easy Plus package is up to $9.00

Yes thank you. That was my point.

Thank you, this is helpful. We have $200 of onboard credit. I just don’t know the difference in the pre-purchase versus onboard price to determine if it would be worthwhile.

As of this morning, I saw two Fantastica balcony cabins and eight yacht club balcony cabin.

I hate to be so specific, but do you know if that two business days were to calendar days?

I sail out on Nov 20th (4 days away) and submitted a bid to upgrade to YC yesterday. I plan to purchase a drink and spa package if I do not win the bid. 1. Does anyone know when (or if) the website will stop selling packages in advance of the cruise? 2. Will the cost of drink and spa packages increase if purchasing on the ship? 3. Also, what is the latest date we could be notified of an upgrade? 4. I only bid $5 over the lowest possible bid, should I bid higher?

So sorry 😞

I am silver a few points from to gold on NCL. I appreciate it is not significant. The point that I’m making is that MSC put me at the BEGINNING of the “equivalent” status, which is their lowest stats, which means it is like starting over. It’s not an equivalent match.

I sailed with MSC 6 months ago. 5 months before sailing, I completed the status match form (four times because it never seemed to work) having previously sailed with NCL on 5 cruises. I didn't get status matched prior to my sailing. Then, immediately AFTER my sailing, I magically received notification that I was matched to Classic and only had 1800 points. This made no sense to me. I was thinking that my sailing would have put me into the next category with MSC. In my mind 1+1=2. I have been persistent sending at least 10 emails with only ever receiving one very vague email not answering my question. Well, today my persistence paid off! Someone responded to me answering my question: Good Afternoon HEATHER, When you complete a status match, you do not bring over the points you had with the other cruise line. When you match with MSC you receive the starting amount of points that belong to the tier level that you were approved for. In your case, you received classic status which is the first tier level so you only received one point starting off. You currently have 1900 points due to your past sailing. Matching with a higher level will get you a higher level with Msc and more points starting off. For example, Norwegian Ambassador would have given you Msc Diamond with 10,000 points. Please keep in mind, Every voyage aboard MSC Cruises as well as any onboard spending will add points to your account.

Such a crock.

Greetings! I am planning for packing for my cruise on the Meraviglia leaving November 20th 7 day cruise. Can anyone having recently cruised please report back what theme parties were on your sailing?

We were on the Meraviglia in March. While I support the notion that adults may perceive it to be a “joke”, our nine-year-old son actually really enjoyed it! They didn’t cook anything, they cut fruit, and yogurt, and we are judged on how well they decorated cookies. While they gave great comments to each kid in the judging, ultimately, they didn’t select a true winner, which was a little disappointing. We are not in the “everybody should get a trophy club”. We are going back on the Meraviglia in November, and our son now 10, is looking forward to participating in Master Chef.

We were on Meraviglia in March. Thermo spa is the second best we have experienced and all of our cruising. It truly is amazing and well worth $130 for the whole week. One day was $60 when we went in March.

Greetings! I live in Florida and last night I booked the last minute cruise on the Meraviglia for November 20 out of port Canaveral. They didn’t have Fantastica available - only Bella and Aurea. I booked Bella, which is a guaranteed cabin, but wanted Fantastica. By the time I woke up this morning, I was assigned cabin 13064. Additionally, more Fantastica balconies opened up. 1. It appears 13064 might be a category B3 in Aurea. Can anyone confirm? 2. Further, if that is the case, will we have the benefits of Aurea? 3. Does anyone know if the balcony has an obstructed view? I’m wondering if I it would benefit me to stick with what I have or contact MSC to upgrade to Fantastica instead of Bella. your input is greatly appreciated! Heather
