  1. Does InsureMyTrip have annual policies that could cover multiple trips with an annual policy? Typically, we take one cruise each year and several other driving vacations across the US. Sometimes our "land" vacation might require flights. Thanks!
  2. No. I am a volunteer puppy raiser, and my husband works in IT. This was an experiment for us to see if we could happily cruise in an interior cabin and check out MSC for the first time. We tend to gravitate toward cruises with Royal Caribbean. I do a lot of price shopping and create spreadsheets to compare pricing for similar itineraries across multiple cruise lines but usually end up on a Royal ship.
  3. We got off the ship this morning and debarkation ran about 20-30 minutes ahead of schedule. It was easy, peasy with no standing in line at all. We were in group 51 and waited 10 minutes after we were called “early”. Our bag was lonely for us when we got to the terminal. Only one other bag was left at the 51 sign when we exited. To contrast, the prior cruise that disembarked December 3rd took longer to disembark so we were delayed in boarding but on the ship by noon with an 11:30 check in time slot. Overall, we were happy with embarkation and disembarkation.
  4. As with everything, “your mileage may vary”. However, today was the easiest debarkation ever after 7 cruises with Royal Caribbean, 3 with Carnival, 1 with Celebrity and 1 with Premier Cruise Lines.
  5. Gold status has perk of 1 hour at the thermal spa. We did not do the spa tour when we boarded. I thought the thermal spa pass was for a sauna. It is so much more than that!
  6. There are photo opportunities but they are not pushy about photos and there are no lines.
  7. Decorations are in progress. First day, some gold trees. Second day, some garland and column decorations and more trees.
  8. Boarding Day - Casual Day 2 - Tropical Day 3 - White Day 4 - 70s, 80s, 90s, Sunshine
  9. There have been no charges for any of the shows. However, they ask for reservations through the app but no one checked for reservations when we attended the shows.
  10. Day 3 Dinner - Key Lime Pie is the first dessert to disappoint us. There was little to no lime flavor and the consistency was different than we expected.
  11. Please note that one device means only one device and no switching from one device to another. Here are some options to change the internet plan:
  12. Well, I walked in and swam from the North Beach life guard tower to the South Beach life guard tower. My husband found it a little chilly and he only walked in to ankle deep. Then he walked the north beach, bridge and south beach to meet me on the other side.
  13. Electrical outlets in deluxe interior cabin are in three places: USB on one side of the bed, 2 US, 2 USB and 2 European on wall above desk / below the television and one dual US/European in bathroom.
  14. For the “deluxe” interior cabin, there is one USB outlet on one side of the bed. I’ll add some photos later for all the available plugs.
  15. We missed the light show on the island so no pictures. 😢. We were at dinner for the first show and couldn’t get out on deck fast enough for the second one. Elevator service was challenging this evening. We had been using stairs most of the time but really needed an elevator tonight.
  16. We got our gold status match fixed at guest services today. They were able to print up new gold cars for this cruise. After dinner, we were surprised by a couple bath robes to use on the cruise and pairs of slippers to keep.
  17. Desserts for Day 2 Dinner and Frozen Toblerone drink.
