Hi On a Middle East cruise from Dubai - the ship overnights in Dubai. Does the casino open when docked in Dubai or does it have to remain closed? thanks

Fantastica experience / dining options?
Travelbugs2.2 replied to Travelbugs2.2's topic in MSC Cruises
Thanks to you all for your replies & help. I think sutra option is probably the best option if we go with as the anytime dining is important to us. (Though I am still unsure why mean by includes speciality dining package!!) could I also ask - do you know what the currency is on board with MSC? Or does it depend on the departure port? The cruise we are currently looking at is from Port Canaveral thank you -
Fantastica experience / dining options?
Travelbugs2.2 replied to Travelbugs2.2's topic in MSC Cruises
Thanks - I do find it very confusing ! we have gold status (matched from RCL & Celebrity status), but I don’t think that gets us any other benefits for dining? -
Hi we haven’t sailed with MSC before, so we’re just trying to understand the differences between the different ‘experiences’ to choose from. The fantastica experience says it includes speciality restaurants package - but I’m not sure what that means exactly? Does it include free speciality dining, or just a discount ? Also - is the Aurea experience the only one that allows anytime dining? any help and advice appreciated ! thank you

Do you know if they will only provide loyalty match after you’ve booked - or can we apply for loyalty match without a booking?
-
Thank you so much for your help!

Thank you! any idea about the drinks package?
-
Hi We’ve never cruised with MSC before, so looking for some advice if possible! Do MSC sell their drinks packages separately? If so, how much are they? (Alcohol package). And if a service charge applies also - what percentage is it? Also, do they tend to do deals on the packages in advance (ie, but one get one free or a % off) or how / when is the best time to buy? also, do MSC status match loyalty from other cruise lines? We have Elite plus with Celebrity and Diamond with RCL apologies for all the questions and any help / advice much appreciated! many thanks T

Equinox itinerary - strange port times?
Travelbugs2.2 replied to Travelbugs2.2's topic in Celebrity Cruises
Unfortunately I think we may give this one a miss - simply due to these port times. Shame! -
Equinox itinerary - strange port times?
Travelbugs2.2 replied to Travelbugs2.2's topic in Celebrity Cruises
Thank you. I can’t recall San Juan ever being one of our stops before - we’ve just sailed out of SJ previously. Bit concerned this would feel like another sea day - which can be crowded in the pool areas on Equinox? Also - does this mean the casino won’t open till 11:30pm on the San Juan stop day? -
Hi We were planning on cruising on the Equinox dep September 2nd, but 2 of the port times seem very strange? San Juan - arrive 4pm depart 11pm Puerto Plata - arrive midday depart 6.30pm Is this likely to be a mistake, or is there any reason why there would be such late arrival times in these ports? I’ve never noticed or experienced such late arrival times from any vessel prior - so seemed very strange! Seems like quite a waste of San Juan to arrive so late, and whilst I love Puerto Plata port - I’m conscious if other ships are in the same day, our late arrival may impact availability of beds somewhat. Has anyone any experience of these times? thanks

Parking - Port Canaveral for Cruise on Independence
Travelbugs2.2 replied to Travelbugs2.2's topic in Florida Departures
Yeah - we’ve always parked off site in the past, and to be fair - never had any issues. But for this one, we just figured, it’s Xmas, likely to be very busy, and anything that will save time and hassle on the way we’re happy to do! -
Parking - Port Canaveral for Cruise on Independence
Travelbugs2.2 replied to Travelbugs2.2's topic in Florida Departures
Thank you! -
Hi We will be taking a cruise on Independence over Xmas, and plan to park at the port / terminal (rather than one of the off site parks). which terminal does Independence sail from? Also - is it very straight forward parking at these lots ? I assume no pre bookings required and we just pay on entry? thanks T

That’s great - thank you! I’d be planning to use it on Coco Cay. -
Diamond Member Voom offer?
Travelbugs2.2 replied to bulldogz's topic in Royal Caribbean International
Hi Do diamond members definitely get 24hrs free each? I wasn’t sure if Royal had this benefit? Would the voom surf be sufficient for what’sapp video calls? -
Hi For upcoming 3 night cruise, the following options are avail; I can choose 2 devices for 1 of us for $92.97, or we each choose 1 device,, at cost of $119.84? I’m just getting a bit confused re what the difference is? eg, if I choose 2 devices against my name, can I sign into my phone to use the package, and at the same time, my husband could sign into his phone (as device 2) under my name so we both have surf and stream on 2 devices, at the same time? or am I missing something?

Drink package cost - 3 night Xmas sailing
Travelbugs2.2 replied to Travelbugs2.2's topic in Royal Caribbean International
thank you! If we were to book now, and cancel at a later date (if better deal seen) - do you know how long RCL take to process the refund? thanks -
Hi we will be on the 3 night cruise ex PC Dec 23rd - Dec 26th. Prices for the deluxe drinks package are currently €77.99 pp excl gratuities. For the Xmas sailings - do drink packages remain higher, or is the cost of the package nothing to do with the sailing time of year? I was hoping to get a ‘bargain’ of €55pp exc gratuities which I’ve got many times prior (but just never sailed these specific holiday dates) Thanks T
