metsgiants Posted September 17, 2016 #1 Share Posted September 17, 2016 I would be new to Msc cruising. I love the kids sail free there offering. With a family of 5 I haven't been able to cruise in a few years. There offering a affordable deal for a suite. Can you guys tell me about a suite on diving. Will the room be bigger?. Do we get any special privileges ? I'm far from rich or snobby it's just that a suite is the only room that accommodates 5. I want to know the suite perks [emoji4] Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

El_Snocat Posted September 17, 2016 #4 Share Posted September 17, 2016 Suites are available in Aurea and Yacht Club categories and as stated, MSC's website shows the perks of each. But when I try to test book a Suite online, it only allows 4 people per. Also, looking at the floor plan, there is a double bed and double sofa- not sure where you would put the 5th person? Are you sure they allow 5? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
razzzbere Posted September 17, 2016 #5 Share Posted September 17, 2016 It really doesn't look like they allow 5 in a room as the previous poster stated, you would have to find a cruise that still has the super family cabins available...those are two or three cabins combined. How old are you kids? Another option is getting connecting rooms. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MustSailNOW Posted September 18, 2016 #6 Share Posted September 18, 2016 We are also a family of 5. When we booked for next year, we were told we would need a super family room (2 balcony rooms connected). However, when the agent found out the ages of my children (2, 4, 6), she suggested that we book a regular balcony and fill out an occupancy request form (I think that's what it was called). She said since my daughter will have recently turned 3 by the time we cruise, we may get approval to have all 5 of us in a room. We got the approval about a day after submitting. I think I read that someone did the same thing for her 8 year old and was approved. May be worth a try. We're booked in a Fantastica balcony, so can't really comment on the suite perks.

metsgiants Posted September 19, 2016 Author #7 Share Posted September 19, 2016 I have twin 3 year olds and a 5 year old . I just double checked the quote in my email. It just says suite and definetly has 5 guests. I'm sure it's the lesser of the two categories because the cruise fade is very affordable. I would show the pic of quote but it's probably against the rules. Maybe there doing it for reasons said above because the age of the little ones. Our agent didn't mention anything of a request form or anything though . Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
