THIS IS US!

Booked in an aft extended balcony with DM and DD.  I saw the mock-up of the layout on ccl website but I can’t figure out why the couch does not convert and a trundle is needed. Anyone with experience on having a cabin of that size with the King separated and the trundle in place? Pics or video would be appreciated. Thanks fellow cruisers!

You obviously missed the announcement. Imagination and Inspiration were removed from service and both ships' itineraries were consolidated onto the Radiance. Inspiration is sitting on a beach in Aliağa, Turkey being scrapped, and while not officially announced, Imagination appears to be headed to Aliağa for scrapping as well.

Thanks I missed that there would only be the Radiance, bummer. It was fun to take both. 
 I definitely didn’t miss the announcement that they were being scrapped because I was booked on the Imagination twice and got a surprise that my two quick cruises were canceled . I am now on the Radiance and the Panorama for next year so it worked out in my favor. 

Will there be three ships in Long Beach? Would love it if both the Imagination and Inspiration get a replacement.

Again, Carnival will have 25 ships by 2022 when the Celebration joins and the Fascination & Imagination get scrapped. Really don't see Carnival keeping these two ships.

Agreed. I’m just happy Long Beach now has ships with balconies to replace the imagination and inspiration. The quick local trip will be even more fun with a balcony to relax on.

Thanks for the info Joe817 it will certainly come in handy for our next few cruises.

Yeah I am hoping to get a good price but with it being one of the first summer cruises for 2021 we shall see. DM will be watching while DB and I are at work since she is retired. Seems like the villas/cabanas will pop on like FTTF. 

Canceled 4/14 All family members finally received their credit card returns last week.  DM still waiting for Carnival gift cards. 

Good to know. Unfortunately the canceled our cruise and the new one is over $3000 higher. We will have to try MSC another time. Still good info for the future!

Thanks for the update I will keep an eye out for sure

Did anyone narrow down the timing as to when the villas are available to book?

Thanks for the update, much appreciated!

This is great thanks so much for starting this thread and the pics!

Thank you for the link Ate’ and the great questions reg pool Guppy99 we are looking to sail next year as a rebooking cruise.

How many European outlets are there and locations please. DB will have to do a small amount of work on vacay so we will have work and personal devices. DM will have her devices as well. Thank you everyone for your help!

Thanks for the info. With our latest cruise being canceled for a second time. This time due to repositioning, we are looking at the Meraviglia Aurea balcony as well. Any recommendations for largest cabin with sun?

Just received my funshop spa package money. Cruise cancelled April 14th. 

Beamafar these were my thoughts as well. Except this will be my first MSC Cruise and we are getting P+. Hopefully they will just ask or give us a menu to mark what we want in the minibar so many hands do not touch all the things they have no desire to drink.

My guess (and it is absolutely a guess) is that they have a team assigned to each ship and they are processing the refunds by sailing date. Or you could be right, there isn't a method to their madness.

This is the most plausible idea I have read. Thank you for sharing. Based on this idea, I probably won’t see a refund until August as our July cruise was cancelled a few weeks ago. Still no refund from Carnival for the cruise or drink and spa packages which are separate accounts according to the rep I spoke to upon cancellation.

I loved premium plus , very high end liquor some that cost 200 a bottle, wine was limited not that much red wine  offered we did have one nice Cabernet, some really good champagne costing 30 a glass is included. 

Thanks for the reply George. I will definitely be trying some of the higher end liquor as a splurge  

Did you by chance utilize the mini bar or order drinks to the room with the premium plus?

Has anyone got the Premium Plus package and used room service or the mini bar?
Mini Bar what is it stocked with and can you ask to switch products out for what you like?

Room service can you order alcohol like in the Yacht Club room service? (Asking for a friend 😊)

Thank you so much for including this menu. I have been looking for one. There was Tito’s Vodka on the old list. Does anyone know if there are other new menus out there of list of all sports like MSC used to have in the past. Sailing on the Armonia in Aurea class. It’s my  first sailing with MSC so navigating these packages for cabins and drinks has been interesting. 

Thanks for the information, that was very informative. Back to the search hopefully we can find the new list and share out. Happy sailing whenever we sail the seas again.

I looked at the list and I find it worth the price. You can search bar menus for the ship and you will see the well choices are very basic. When looking at the old list MSC has (I found on another cc post) it would be equivalent to the old deluxe plan. 
I have posted it here thanks to the cc poster who put it out there on another thread.

If you find other information than what is posted on the map located on carnival.com that would be wonderful to share. I went strictly off the map. There are a few CC members that have stayed in multiple cabins that may also be able to weigh in.
