RSVP MSC Divina 2.15.14

[RMS Olympic]

Off limit areas on the ship.....sounds like the old Cunard style.......2 class ship. Hope the rules are adjusted for you guys for this charter cruise.

Makes me think of the Titanic movie. You can be like Leonardo....and take spitting classes....learn to spit like a man. Maybe systa Helen can do the teaching.

Wish I was going.

Wonder if there will be a summer 2014 cruise in the Med....and if so would it be back on HAL or another MSC ?

Me, I hope to do RSVP in the med...if there even is a RSVP that far out:confused:

Best wishes for this MSC experience...hope the ship sells out.

Even on HAL with RSVP there are places that are off limits for certain folks (Neptune Lounge, Pinnacle for breakfast for suites only).

Cruise lines are creating exclusive areas such as MSC's Yacht Club and NCL' The Haven and the singles lounge.

Personally I have no issue with the Cunard "grills", MSC Yacht club, NCL Haven, etc. I've always thought it strange that someone who pays thousands and thousands of dollars basically receives the same food and service as I do booking a much cheaper interior cabin.

 

It is also no different than flying a good airline. Different experiences and service based upon how much, or how little, one pays.

Sounds more and more like Atlantis :(

 

Never did an Atlantis Crusie so I have no idea how they are to deal with. I guess mistakes happen. Everything go worked out but I do wonder how many others were over charged and did realize it. It was only $20 pp but that can add up to a lot of money on a 3,000 plus passenger ship.

I have booked a cruise with them and our resort vacation was back in 2000 but form what I have heard, Atlantis is a bit disorganized and customer service is not their strong suit.

Booked :)

 

 

Welcome aboard! I see you have done Atlantis and Pied Piper; is this your first RSVP cruise?

Dit gaan lekker! (It is going well)

 

25 reasons? How about 3,959? :D

 

Nobody is too old for it. (Ho wold are you??) RSVP ages range from twink to twilight! And everybody has fun and there is very little attitude. This is a new cruise line for gay charters and the ship looks amazing. Sure, there is the unknown versus the familiar (and I will miss the HAL ships) but I am willing to chance it.

OK, Oom Ian! :)

 

They have older guys on the Atlantis cruises too, but their February Caribbean cruises tend to be a younger crowd.

Can't wait to see this great new ship!

Hooray! Welcome Aboard! :)

[dantobey]

Glad to see more guys are booking. Maybe the better prices than Atlantis will fill the ship faster?

 

We are talking it up more to all our friends. Several guys I know from Europe are thinkiing of going.

That could be part of it as well as it being the first gay charter on a new cruise line

 

We too are working on friends to take the gay charter plunge ;) Remember: if your friends mention on their registration forms that you referred them you get bonus RSViP points!

I just noticed that the prices listed on the RSVP website for the Divina cruise are different than the brochure we were given onboard the ship. We selected a category 9 cabin listed at $1359.00, and for booking early we each received a $140 discount, making the price $1219 (plus extra fees, of course). But now on the internet, a category 9 cabin is listed at $1299, so we just got a $80 discount for booking early. I wonder if we will receive any other discount.

Got my answer already from RSVP through my travel agent....NO. Didn't think so, but figured it didn't hurt to ask.

Did TA explain why prices differ?

No, I guess they were just trying to make it more attractive to sell. But they said we are still getting the lowest price offered for the category.

Got it too. Tempting...

We are booked! Our friends talked us into sailing again with RSVP. We love RSVP, but were getting bored with the Caribbean. Excited about trying a larger ship and new line. I'm sure we will have a great time.

Welcome back onboard!

Did everyone get the email from Randle Roper the new President at RSVP? I wish him well and hope he moves things along with our sailing. Like to see RSVP on top of the gay cruise market again.
