  1. That would depend on what the OP did. I drive from my front door to the port so I've never used any service (NCL or other) to get there. People often say that their cruise "...left from Orlando..." when they are referring to Port Canaveral.
  2. Were you asking about the song by Pitbull or asking about the song by Queen?
  3. Port Canaveral is close to Orlando International Airport (MCO). It's a little over a 30 minute drive but it's actually a different city and county.
  4. NCL put 18132 into the "large balcony" category because the balcony is slightly wider than the HF staterooms on deck 18. I don't think that the stateroom itself is significantly wider, though.
  5. Are you guys insinuating that if the food is too good...the OP should kill the cook? 🤔
  6. If more and more guests complain about people who are making videos.....😡 ...the result will be that more and more people who make videos will invest in smaller/hidden cameras so that the guests who complain won't even know that a video is being made until after the video is uploaded for the world to see. 😳 Would you rather know that you are being recorded (larger camera) or not know that you are being recorded (smaller camera)? For better or for worse, not being recorded isn't an option until someone sells suits with built-in stealth like in the movie 'Predator'.
  7. The slide makes 15208 the worst but the close proximity of the bump out hurts 15208 and 15808. I would take 15810 if I had the choice.
  8. Whether port side or starboard side, the view forward from the balcony is blocked by the bump out. The view from 15208 is probably the worst one.
  9. Seashore/Seascape info matches for 19002.
  10. Thai will work IF the spice caliber is done correctly. Wine will work IF the availability of selections is done correctly. Vegan will be empty (like Margaritaville) and will eventually be removed and replaced with something else (like Margaritaville).
  11. That's not mistreatment of Bella and Fantastica guests. It's elevated treatment of Aurea and Yacht Club guests. If someone is walking through the desert and I hand them a cold 16.9oz bottle of Dasani water, that person shouldn't feel mistreated if I hand a Yacht Club guest a cold 1L bottle of Acqua Panna water.
  12. The were (temporarily) in 15002 on World Europa.

  14. You'll have to do the "off then back on" dance.
  15. I've never been on a cruise ship that had only one fat kid or only one fat adult. Typically, cruisers are more overweight than the general population. However, any cruise ship will have smaller stateroom accommodations than the usual land hotel. If the 5 of you are sharing a room, it will be tight no matter what size the people are.
  16. We always get one but we're a family of 4. Some people feel that they aren't worth it. It's up to you. Would your spouse enjoy the jet skis?
  17. There were 2 status extensions by MSC during Covid. Depending on when the original status was going to expire, some people got longer extensions than others.
  18. Knowing that MSC doesn't really try to do "typical Southern comfort food" that many cruisers want will explain some of the complaints. I read one complaint from someone who wasn't familiar with gelato and wanted ice cream. Because it was "different", the reviewer wasn't happy. Staff might not be the "bubbly woo-hoo" type but I've never encountered rudeness. Some reviewers think that not getting their way equals rude staff members. Plenty of people in Bella interior staterooms have great MSC cruises. Sure, Yacht Club and Aurea guests get more but that doesn't mean that Bella and Fantastica guests are mistreated or have sub-standard experiences (no pun intended).
  19. The location for "outside of the complex" can vary by ship. You can determine if the distance will be an issue. Also, balcony size (especially on Breakaway/Getaway) can be an issue. Yes, but the courtyard can be cramped (varies by ship). Getaway's Haven doesn't have a retractable roof over the courtyard but the upper and lower levels have space and loungers. Yes (in the lounge next to the courtyard), but getting a seat at the bar can be difficult since there aren't many seats. It's probably better to get your drink to go and sit in the lounge (more comfortable seats), anyway. Butlers rotate their assigned areas so you might get a great butler or you might get a mediocre butler. Other than intoxicated empty nesters, not really. 😁 Yes. Prepare a list and give it to the concierge on embarkation day. You can also make your own reservations before embarkation day, if you want.
  20. What would you like to know? Which Haven stateroom category are you looking to book? Which MSC ship were you on and which Yacht Club category did you book? Some things, Yacht Club does better. Some things, Haven does better. ...more info needed...
  21. Bliss has 80 Haven suites so at 100% capacity, it would be 160 people. More than likely, it will be more people than that.
  22. For example, 100 Haven staterooms at 100% capacity would be 200 people. Those same 100 staterooms at 108% capacity would be 216 people. I don't know what the actual average percentage is but if you know the number of Haven staterooms on your ship, multiply that by at least 2 to get a base number.
