Is Ocho rios or Cozumel a tender port or only cayman. Ty so much for your opinions. They are greatly appreciated

thank you so much. have you done any of these? also how much do I need to worry if booking outside cruise line about missing the ship or a detoured port because of weather?

no I haven't, thank you. I will look for that board. was having difficulty finding different boards. appreciate you telling me the name to look for.

Hello I will cruising with my husband on seascape November 4 2023 to ocho rios, cayman, Cozumel. Anyone have suggestions on great excursions? Is it best to book through the cruise or outside source. We were thinking of doing horseback riding in cayman but not offered by MSC, any suggestions, comment, recommendations would be welcome. Thank you so much

Hello I was reading in some topics back in March 2023 that people were noting a discrepancy in the cost of drinks included in the premium package. Has anyone been on recently or upcoming that can clarity. I booked my room 9/13/2023 and will be traveling November 4 on seascape in the yacht club, so the drink package is included. When I click on inclusions for yacht club on the manage my trip it says drinks up to 13 with no dollar or euro noted. I know the drink prices have increased with some being $16 and some people saying it includes drinks up to this amount. Others say it depends on when you booked. Can anyone help clarify this or send me in the right direction to check. Much appreciated.

Ty so much

Thank you for posting this. I am not trying to hijak your post, but don't know how to make my own post lol, tech is not my thing. I was wondering about the shore excursions offered by MSC versus doing on our own. Does anyone have any recommendations especially for ocho rios and cayman. Husband and I were thinking of horse swim and blue hole or Dunns river falls but welcome any recommendations.

What are your opinions on booking a cabana for the cruise of nieuw statendam for december cruise to southern caribbean? Also if we do would you choose a cabin on deck 10 or 11 with smaller balcony or choose cabin on deck 4 with large balcony? or pick one in the middle decks? Also opinions on week pass for spa. main dining room vs specialty? Anyone ever done the wine making onboard, my husband and I love wine. just looking for advice on how to make this cruise special.

Thank you all for your replies, they have been helpful. Now a couple other questions. Thoughts on cabana rentals and week pass at spa, worth it or not for cruise in December to Aruba. Also which side of the ship would be better. Those who have been on the ships recently, are they crowded. Venues crowded. I know COVID can be a not button and not wanting to start an issue just curious if anyone who has been on recently know about concern for COVID.

HI I am new to HAL and I am looking to sail with my husband on Nieuw Stratendam in December. Is this where I can ask about any great tips on the ship, what to make sure to do, etc. Also would love advice on decks for cabins and cabins. We would like a verandah cabin with no obstructions, like mid or aft, but looks like on most decks the aft would have better view because of life boats, but am I wrong on this. Any advice, suggestions would be welcome. We are so looking forward to the music. Thanks so much
