Internet streaming upgrade and laundry questions

[brovol]

Just booked seashore YC Grand for April 2025. Experienced (40+) cruiser, but first with MSC. Got a few questions.

 

First, the YC comes with the basic internet.  Anyone know how I upgrade to streaming for one device?  I see the option to purchase the streaming, but I wouldn't think I need to pay that full price, but rather there should be just an upgrade price, right? What would the cost be for a one week cruise?

 

Also, it looks like there is a laundry package option, but when I go to that on the website, it doesn't show any actual options to select.  Is there a secret?  What do the laundry packages cost. 

 

Been on lots of cruises, with most mainstream lines, but the MSC website and app is the most glitchy ever.  Would like to take care of business now if possible.  Insight appreciated.

MSC website is poor, at best.  You can just upgrade one device, but you will have to do so onboard.

The prices for laundry may not be set - or they might change the packages a year out.

MSC website is glitchy.

Any idea what the cost to upgrade one device, from the basic internet to the streaming?

 

Thanks.

Thank you!  So, they dont have an unlimited laundry package, or a per bag deal?  Just a "per piece" deal?  Does a pair of socks count as one or two pieces, and socks, or a pair of underwear counts the same as a pair of pants or a jacket?  Seems strange.

Last year on seaside our YC internet was the premium one. Have they changed it to basic? we are on Euribia Saturday.

No unlimited, and no "bag" deal.  Yes, a pair of socks counts as "1", so does a bra or underwear, or a pair of jeans 😲  No one said it has to make sense but that's the way they do it.

Well, if everything made sense I would always be confused.  Lol.

 

Thanks.

If you got the premium internet as part of the standard YC package that was a glitch.

 

It isn't a change to basic, it was basic last year and still basic this year, but as it is on Starlink on most (..all?) ships now, even the basic isn't bad, but if you want to stream video etc. then the premium is the safest bet.

10 bucks a day to upgrade on-board
