We  called and upgraded both drinks & wi-fi on 8/21 and the rep had no problem with applying the discounts.

I guess the two people in the captains club I spoke with to upgrade where not trained well, but then they kept telling me they had to check with a supervisor!!!!! still no discount

had a different experience.  I called to upgrade both beverage & wi-fi.  The 10% and :35% are were applied  

 No problem   You need to call to upgrade with the discounts.

The 10% on upgrades is new since the start of AI

did they charge you the discounted price or a credit?

this was as of today 9/2/21

I did call 2 different times was told the same thing pay full price and the you receive the discount as a onboard ship credit NON REFUNDABLE!!!!

After many cruises at elite and upgrading the drink package I just came to realize I never received the 10% discount after almost an hour on the phone I was told it should of shown up and here is the rub as a non refundable onboard cruise credit!!! The same goes true for the specialty dinning discount. So my thought is how would anyone feel if going to any store in the mall and you saw a 50% off sign and they told you it is only in a store credit, I don't think most people would be ok with that. So don't work so hard to move up in the captains club for thought it's a gimmick. The last three cruise no welcome back party (COVID) but they had a concierge party with about a 100 people on the  Aug Equinox sailing at. Sorry  this policy is wrong in my opinion.

Was in Cozumel on the Edge 7/14 ONLY SHIP EXCURSIONS ALLOWED everything on the pier was closed VERY SUREAL only ship there and very few boats

On the Edge now was told by a few crew members that there is 1501 passengers onboard

Cruise is not nearly as enjoyable as past cruises very subdued

Just upgraded for the July 10Th edge cruise upgrade was $10.80 PP you can do it online. Just a heads if there are 2 in the cabin both must upgrade!!

hope all goes well, we are scheduled to be on the 3rd cruise July 10th. So please stay safe and healthy

I do not understand why other travel is allowed but not cruises!!! Could part of the problem be that most cruises leave from Florida a red state. 🙈

also no one mentioned the odor and harmful vapors you are passing on to you neighbors

stay far away from cabin 14029!!!!!  directly under the bamboo pool area, every night the noise of the cleaning crew moving tables and chairs at 1:30AM was awful then again at 5:30AM. Even though we complained, it was quiet for one night!!!

     you have been warned!!!!

opt for a cabin at least half way down the corridor on deck 14 on either side for your own peace of mind.

Hello ,

            have cruised on MSC 4 times (3) on Seaside (1) Meraviglia and a future cruise on 3/29/ on the Meraviglia.

  I would like to prebook the item below but need clarification if anyone has booked in the past.

is the item below a salt scrub FOLLOWED BY A 50 MIN MASSAGE or is it a combined 50 minutes

I have had both the scrub & the massage but as individual items.

HIMALAYAN DREAM: MASSAGE WITH HIMALAYAN SALTS

does anyone know if the outlets in the cabins accept US plugs or are they the the round pin plugs? also are they 110 or 220 volt.

have been on the seaside no issues but have read that the  MSC MERAVIGLIA outlets are different

I think there is a problem with the way you are thinking they do not charge you the difference but the whole cost of the premium drink. in other words if the upgraded drink is $10. you pay the $10. they forget you have the drink package.

I too was able to upgrade through the above TA I did book through her for a May 2018 cruise on the seaside with the AUREA

SCCARSO1−SERVICE CHARGE − to prepay tips

536UPGAD−UPGRADE 534 − 536 −

you want to upgrade from code 534 to code 536 Premium drink as I stated before the cost was $8.00 a day

Did you book directly through MSC ? If so try calling

Phone: +1 954.958.3286 ask for or speak with Michelle Lombardo or e-mail her at

Michelle.lombardo@msccruisesusa.com

hope this is allowed on this board

:D happy to be of help!

Update on the drink package upgrade, I to have booked the seaside for May 2018 when I called I was told you cannot upgrade the drink package in a not so friendly way, I hung up a bit $%$## off so I called later that afternoon and spoke to Michelle to cancel, when asked why I explained the above problem. She told me the girl I spoke with earlier was WRONG. So to anyone sailing from Miami to the Caribbean here are the MSC codes for the drink upgrade are 536UPGAD−UPGRADE 534 − 536 − which came to $56.PP and the code to prepay gratuities is SCCARSO1−SERVICE CHARGE − $87.50 PP if anyone tells you different then speak to someone else.

PS the call was to MSC directly

17 Cruises and counting plus 5 future cruises booked!!!!

you will be charged full price
