Hello all, Like some of you on these boards, I saved up my MyVegas points to use on a free cruise and I scored one for a 10/2 Orlando cruise. No issues getting the room at all and was pleasantly surprised to find that I got a balcony. I asked at the time if I could pay to upgrade to a YC but was told no. I thought about it and called back, because why wouldn't MSC take my money? The second casino rep told me the same thing and that there was no way to upgrade to any other cabin. I haven't traveled in a very long time and am taking my adult daughter, a nurse, on this cruise as a reward for all her hard work (and after she has gotten COVID twice at work so far) during the pandemic. I know that there is an upgrade program for those who purchase a cruise, so at first I thought there would also be a way for me to upgrade the room I purchased as a voucher with my MyVegas points. Again, why wouldn't MSC want to get some $$ from me? Anyway, it's a dumb policy, and I just wanted to share this in case anyone else ran into this issue.
