  1. You should connect with fellow passengers on the Roll Call for your voyage, link below...
  2. That menu does not even have half of the items from the other ships! 🤷‍♂️
  3. Having been on a couple of inaugural cruises years ago, we now wait at least a year before booking on a new ship. Our first cruise on the Sun will be in Oct/Nov of 2025. Hopefully by then, all of the kinks will have been worked out.
  4. We always obtain local currency from our bank for all the countries we will be visiting. This usually amounts to $200 per country, that we use for gratuities and small purchases from vendors that do not take credit cards.
  5. The only update I made was for Nicola Furlan returning to the Enchanted. 🤷‍♂️
  6. We were on the Enchanted this past Nov/Dec for 26 days. We had a fantastic time. For details you can peruse our "Live" thread below by expanding my signature. Enjoy!

  8. As I posted on the Sun thread, the Royal class ships are looking better and better everyday!!! 🤷‍♂️
  9. We have dear friends that are frequent MSC YC cruisers and they have been trying to get us to join them. It's just that we have not found the right itinerary for us. We usually book voyages of 30+ days and we have not found a MSC itinerary that we have liked so far. But, we do keep checking!
  10. The Sanctuary situation sounds horrible, even for those in suites! We are re-thinking our 50-day cruise in Oct/Nov of next year on the Sun. The Royal class ships are looking better every day!!! 🤷‍♂️
  11. I just noticed the error on my previous post and it was too late to edit, it should read "from this past Nov/Dec." Also, I have yet to see "all" of the Cabanas booked on any of our many cruises. So, hopefully that will be the case on your sailing. Enjoy!!!
  12. Here you go, from this past Mov/Dec.
  13. Thank you so much for all of the info and photos!!! Has the Reserve Collection Dining Room been busy, crowded? How has the service been in the RC Dining Room? TIA 🙂
