I'm always amazed by people that don't do their research before booking, and then complain about widely available policies after.

I will be booking a January eastbound crossing on QM2 in 2025 for my 50th Birthday. This will be my first crossing. I realize that weather in January will be cold. I'm wondering if a balcony stateroom is useable at this time of year, or if I should just book an inside. Looking for opinions from folks who have done both. Thank you.

Have the church elders been informed?

Sorry that you didn't get any cookies.

I’m my experience they barely glance at the e-ticket. They literally just scan the barcode on your e-ticket and hand it back to you. They take a pic of your passport, a pic of you for security, collect the health form, and then hand you your card. I really think you will be ok.

I expect the entertainment on a cruise to be on par with what I paid for the cruise. I don't pay anywhere near the price of an NCL cruise when I sail on MSC, so I don't expect the entertainment to be nearly as good.

We were firmly told no on the Merlaviglia last February. I was travelling with My Mother-in-Law but had separate cabins. We even asked to speak with a manager who refused to budge since she was not staying the the same cabin. We got up and left.

I have a 3 night Yacht Club cruise booked in December that I’d like to change to a January non-yacht club cruise. Can I do this with the one free cruise change perk? If the cost is lower, do I get the difference in OBC? Thank you.

Your shuttle will drop you off right at the entrance to the terminal. There will be an escalator up to the entrance. The YC tent will be at the bottom of the escalator. Enjoy!

It's 30% off the rates you see on the website.

I got mine right after she made the reservation.

I have used a few of the MyVegas awards for MSC. Last month I scored a free 2 nighter on the Divina, only had to pay for taxes and fees. Yesterday, I redeemed for the 30% award. After redeeming, I was sent a link to fill out a form with all of my information and preferred sail date. A few hours after submitting the form, I received a call from a MSC Concierge who was great. I told her I was interested in the Merlaviglia in December. I got the impression that were no blackout dates. I was able to book a Yacht Club cabin and got 30% on top of my 5% Voyagers discount. The agency name on the booking confirmation in Play Studios which runs MyVegas, so unsure if it can be transferred to a TA. Your loyalty coins are refundable as long as you don't make the reservation and put the deposit down. So, if you talk to the concierge and can't find what you are looking for, you can request a refund of your loyalty coins from MyVegas. Hope this helps a bit.
