Things I wish MSC had told me about the Divina

[Cruise-A-Hoy]

Thank you, canajo, for your review! Please disregard the snarky comment by riclop, which to me, was totally uncalled for.

 

I have never stayed in a hotel or been on a cruise ship that required a card being in a "slot" by the door in order to control the lights. I have learned something new! I do like the idea of a light above the door in the hallway which alerts the cabin attendant that you have left the room! (Hopefully he/she will clean it while you are away?)

 

Since this April will be my first cruise on MSC I am always looking for helpful hints about their way of doing things. Thanks again!

 

I have sailed 60 plus cruises and although not a lot I have been on few ship including an NCL ship requiring a card in the slot for electric. It does not have to be you key card it can be anything, I use the do not disturb card.

 

Even less hotels using it but I am seeing an increase it it use at hotels.

 

It is an energy saving feature as many leave lights on when leaving cabin.

How about the dress code? Do they really not allow shorts at night? I read that for common areas but the buffet is a common area.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Yes, what the website says is what the cruise line says. The only one mentioning shorts not being allowed at night and common areas is you.

 

Not quite correct !!

 

It can be found in daily programs

Trying to find a bottle opener on the Opera was one such occasion. A wall mounted one in the bathroom never even crossed my mind!

Yep just where you would expect to find it LOL ... :)

 

If our Emergency Fire escape is down a set of stairs that the crew use I sometimes go and check it out, guess that is the Firefighter in me ... :D

 

RCI does the same thing. bottle opener next to the toilet roll holder
