I think ive to Start early to get rid of the grrrrr..... 

First:booked the SD3 2 bath 2 bedroom 

MSC canceled - Lot of mails and calls later, we got 2 YC instead, fine so far. 

Booked excursions, MSC canceled one trip, Vesuv and Pompeii cost 59€  possible replacement Pompeii allone, cost 65€now.....

I feel mega grrrr, as Rep on the phone told me, may be they will give me my mony back after 120 days, may be later....

Looking forward to hearing about your experiences, MT.  

[Yourefrmwhere?]

Markus, obviously you are in Europe. Did you have to show a COVID test taken 48 hrs prior to boarding, or did they do the COVID test at the pier?

[SeaSwirl66]

What size are those spirit bottles? Hard to see from the photo, are they full 70cl?

[MarkusToe]

Normal Sales sizes....0.7

MSC App do not work, actually.

Message: seashore is no smart ship 😡

Hopefully it works on board....

 

Any info if kids tracking is implemented now?

[Beamafar]

The app really should be working by now.  Not much use having Seashore on the list when it’s clearly not accessible. 

[deliver42]

Got the same thing. Not a smart ship. What are they thinking?

[MarkusToe]

MSC Management thinking? Come on..... 

[Native Floridian 26]

I'm confused about the date of your cruise.  it's not September 5th, and it's well past May 9th, when Seashore wasn't in service yet.

[MarkusToe]

Future cruise....starting at Genova....Sept 5th, 2021

[MouseBerry]

Every good cruise comes with some pre-cruise activities😃

[Cruising89143]

Watched a few YouTube videos of the ship. Looks beautiful. 

[Preziosa]

Do they sell excurtion packets. 3 trips 100 euro

[MarkusToe]

Looks like ive to end this here

MSC canceled my booking without further notice. 

I'm on my way to italy, actually.... 

 

THANKS MSC, WELL DONE 

ID LIKE TO USE THE A... LES WORD NOW..... UNBELIEVABLE

[Beamafar]

OMG - So sorry (and shocked!) to hear this,  MT.  

[sidari]

Markus ... Sorry to hear that, it is totally beyond ridiculous what MSC have done without a full explanation.

[MarkusToe]

Got a call from TA, 

Staterooms are back, we will get new booking number (the third now), but excursions are gone. I've to rebook if available.....

[Beamafar]

MT - I’d be looking to speak with the Hotel Director once onboard!

 

ETA.    NOT the YC director

Edited September 1, 2021 by Beamafar

[MarkusToe]

Hopefully we will get some new excursions, don't like to be on board all the time.... 

[ocdb8r]

What exactly happened!?!?!

 

[MarkusToe]

MSC cancelled my cruise, without further notice.

TA told me, they secured the suites I've booked.

But no new booking number so far, therefore not the possibility to book new excursions....

[LeCommandant]

Thanks @MarkusToefor your reviews, in particular on the Seaview! 
 

I booked a cruise in YC with Seaside for September, and I would like to know if it was better (or not) to book excursions before the cruise. If I don’t book anything yet, will I be able to book it at the excursion desk ? I am asking that because I am not used to “official” excursions in non-COVID times…

 

I look forward reading your review on the brand new Seashore ! 
 

So poor customer service cancelling a cruise 5 days prior departure! Hope you will find a solution.

Hi, why did MSC cancel your specific booking when the ship is sailing as usual?

Anything to do with Covid?

Are you from Germany?
