VIP Photo Sea Card Questions

Can anyone share with me their experiences with this package (details copied below)? It sounds like a great deal but I am wondering if it really is "all inclusive"? Also, what do they mean by "the package applies only for one cabin"?

We have been told (after our TA checked) that it is all photos you and those in your cabin are in, including the specialty photos. This is also what the description alludes to

I called MSC and that was what I was told also- it included all photos of all guests in the cabin. Only one person in the cabin needs to purchase it but you will receive all of the photos of all of the individuals in the cabin.

 

Still seems way too good of a deal....

I am also interested in the details on this. Sounds like a great deal. Do they give you a wristband when you check in? If anyone has first hand experience with this, please share... Thank you in advance.

MY experience in july in Preziosa.

You buy 1 card per cabin. Everytime you are taken a photo you ask them to scan your seapass or a barcode they give you on embarcation day. Every photo is then uploaded to a webserver. You are given a card with a code that allows you to download each photo, I think they are available for a month after the cruise.

In practice, in the fiords, internet wasn't reliable, so they asked me to take to them every photo taken from us. At the last day they burned us 2 cdroms with all the photos.

In any case, the package is for your photos, only as downloadable files, and unlimited in quantity. I had around 250 photos in 15 days.

Hope it helps.

I would keep watching. It was offered at the lower price, then disappeared altogether, then came back at the same lower price then went up in price. When it disappeared I was kicking myself for not repurchasing so when it came back I didn't wait long. Let's hope it goes back to the original price for you as they seem to be still trying to determine the appropriate price point.

I am not good at cut and paste here there are other topics that give more details but basically ALL of your photos digital copies. Someone said CD I thought it might have been a USB drive but same photos as eveyo else just no physical prints
