  1. Is this Express Pass thing similar to The Key (which I purchased) for embarkation? Haven't sailed on RCCL for a while.
  2. Hello everyone. Just wanted to find out if the embarkation process for Haven guests at Terminal 10 at Port Canaveral is basically the same as MSC Yacht Club. Base of the stairs for drop off of bags and then separate security line then too the Haven Lounge area to check in. Thanks
  3. We upgraded to the Plus option also. The Starbucks and the bottles of wine sealed the deal. The Inniskillin Ice wine by the glass is another plus.
  4. Yes, the cabins in Divina YC are smaller (older ship) than Meraviglia. Meraviglia YC1 cabins are a good size. My last 3 MSC sailings were in Meraviglia YC and I love that ship. Will be doing a solo B2B on Divina in a YC1 leaving today. Only time I look at a TV in my cabin is to check my folio or the ships position.
  5. Book Yacht Club and you'll get some great R&R. Leaving tomorrow on a 4 day 3 day B2B on Divina in The Yacht Club.😀
  6. Thermal suite on Meraviglia is a very relaxing experience, loved it. However, IMHO, I will say that the forward facing NCL (Escape) thermal suite is better. The large whirlpool and the forward facing heated ceramic loungers do it for me. It has a more open feeling. Spent many a sea day in that Thermal Spa.
  7. It depends on the ships capacity on your sailing. If you only have 800 - 1000 on your ship they probably won't check. If it's closer to ship capacity, they will. If you are in Yacht Club arrive anytime.
  8. Does anyone know if the menu change on Divina was in the MDR and the Yacht Club restaurant or just the MDR?
  9. In Yacht Club but I thought this was interesting. 9:30am...lol
  10. As of now and according to MarineTraffic.com Seashore is headed to Ocean Cay. And at 21.5 kn. Pedal to the metal...lol
  11. Mom is correct. The only people they do test at the port are the very young kiddos that can't be vaccinated.
  12. I'm sure that the YC menus are different depending on the region you are sailing in. Are the menus the same for each ship in that region or does the YC Chef have the power to change his menu for his ship? Last 3 sailings on Meraviglia. Next 4 on Divina. Would be nice to have a different menu.
  13. Love my 45 minute drive to Port Canaveral. The drive to Miami is a crap shoot. Some days, from Orlando, only 3 hrs. Other days, 4-5 hrs. Traffic is a bear. I do love seeing the ships as you enter the tunnel in Miami. Then pop out the other end, and there you are. The tunnel goes right under terminal 5 so about half way I look up and wave to the MSC ship that's docked there. Cruise nerd, I know...lol
  14. Here is my ballpark for a 7 day sailing. Again, as stated in earlier posts, it depends on how much you utilize the services of each individual. I'll bring an extra $200 - $300 for these tips. Butler - $40 Assistant Butler - $20 Sommelier - $50 -$75 (I utilize him alot..lol) Maitre d' - $25 (If he does something special for you) Concierge - $25 (If you utilize he or she. If you don't utilize them, no tip) Server, DR +Top Sail (if you get the same one's throughout the cruise) $20 each DR Hostess - $20 (you see her everyday) Favorite Bartender in Top Sail - $20 Top Sail Musician - $20 I know I'm forgetting someone.
  15. I guess I'm lucky or it's because I stay in Yacht Club. All my sailings show up about 3 days after I disembark.
  16. This happened to me on Meraviglia March 17th. Called my CC company to alert them to my travel plans, Oh, don't worry you're fine. Registered my card onboard and the $250 hold was denied. The bank MSC uses is in Paris France. Had to call the CC company to OK the transaction. Very frustrating when the Yacht Club Concierge calls you to come down to the desk to take care of your account.
