Rare Beamafar Posted April 13, 2019 #2 Share Posted April 13, 2019 Sorry to hear about your travails in Heathrow, Frank. Looking forward to hearing about your cruise. Hope it was a good one! 😉 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2013cruiser2013 Posted April 17, 2019 #3 Share Posted April 17, 2019 Looking forward to hearing about your recent sailing. Hope you made it home ok. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Beamafar Posted April 17, 2019 #4 Share Posted April 17, 2019 Same here! No pressure, Frank - I know what it's like getting home and needing time to gather the thoughts (as well as being back to grindstone getting in the way lol). Hope all's well and looking forward to hearing of your experiences. You have until Aug 27th (after that, I'll be discovering Seaview myself 😜).

Frankmac Posted April 18, 2019 #5 Share Posted April 18, 2019 Been reading on facebook of long, really long, delays in the boarding process in Barcelona. Did you experience this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kodesthemoose Posted April 18, 2019 #6 Share Posted April 18, 2019 Can't wait to hear what you thought. Am on Seaview soon. Curious if you ever went to Teppanyaki or know if they offer a special (since there isn't really one embarkation day)? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
T.O.cruisers Posted April 19, 2019 #7 Share Posted April 19, 2019 I'm on Seaview next month with a group and wondering if MSC has an app for use on the ship that will allow us to use our smartphones to text with each other for no charge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Epos Man Posted April 19, 2019 #8 Share Posted April 19, 2019 the msc for me app is according to the latest update able to do this but no ones tried it yet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I found some reviews regarding the app and it doesn't sound so promising. It's great in theory but not worth much if it doesn't work. I used to bring a walkie talkie on the ships and for the most part they worked; might have to consider it again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theEvilQueen2 Posted April 20, 2019 #10 Share Posted April 20, 2019 I just read an article that said if you have your smartphone and MSC wristband you can locate your family all over the ship. Mainly to keep track of the kids, but I'd guess you can lo-jack your spouse as well. This would work as well as text for me since my usual message is 'where are you?' 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SirWolf Posted April 20, 2019 #11 Share Posted April 20, 2019 just off Bellissima... the latest version of MSC for Me app includes Family & Friends Locator but requires the purchase of MSC for Me wristband (unfortunately YC wristband does not support this feature). You need smartphone, MSC for Me app and MSC for Me wristband to use all features of the app including chat & locator. MSC for Me app worked well for me (making show reservations, checking account/statement, interactive map, checking events). The app does not require a internet package. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SirWolf, is the wristband required for chat? I don't need to keep track of kids. I'm with a large group of adults so it's mostly for chat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You need to link the wristbands in the app. I could not link our YC wristbands. I guess a individual ID is printed on the MSC for Me wristband but I have not seen one.

I know for the wristband there is a charge. If it works it might be worth it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For me it's peace of mind as I am travelling with four teenagers! They like doing their own thing and I am fine with that, but I would love to keep tabs on them if possible. Hopefully this feature will be available on our Seaview cruise next month Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
