  1. Good idea! Does anyone know if the wifi included with YC is able to handle streaming Netflix or whatever? We have a Roku stick that carries all of our streaming services including YouTube TV (live). It is great for vacations. Does anyone know if the TVs on Meraviglia can handle these devices? We both appreciated that newspaper. Well that's good news that the cabins are larger on M. I also saw a picture and the TVs are larger too. Good luck checking your folio on Divina. I had to stop off at concierge frequently to check ours. No, that is not on the TV in Divina. Apparently it isn't a smart TV. Now that's an understatement! And on the last 2 nights of our cruise the reception went out on that little tiny TV, just when I found a movie on TCM that I wanted to watch! Thanks all for the info and hopefully just a few more answers. No, we won't be going on NCL. But we will be going on Celebrity. Can't wait to try The Retreat Just one more complaint (sorry!). On other cruise lines they have movies playing daily, some 3 times a day at different venues. Either a dedicated theater or MUTS (outdoors). And in addition they have movies in the cabin that are on demand. Start and pause to watch later. On our 10 night MSC cruise, I think that they only showed 1 movie (in the big theater), and then 1 MUTS. A total of 2 movies over a 10 night period. Honestly I may have missed 1 or 2, but not intentionally. I really wanted to enjoy a good movie. But YC was a very pleasant experience. I look forward to doing another MSC cruise, but they have to improve the TV/movie options. Unless I can use that Roku!
  2. We cruised in YC a few weeks ago on Divina. Our first MSC cruise and we loved the YC experience. But we were not thrilled with the cabin. We were surprised at how small it was and a few other complaints. The television was crazy small and programming was terrible. My questions are, are the cabins any better on Meraviglia? Size, storage, TV? Is the programming the same, extremely limited? We love cruising from Port Canaveral because we drive. And we love cruising in suites. But we cannot justify the high cost of the YC for such a small cabin and bad TV experience. We usually cruise on Celebrity, but wanted to try something new and closer. We really did enjoy this cruise and the experience, but won't do it again in Divina. Thanks!
  3. When we needed these patches years ago and the Rx for them was very expensive (not so today, thankfully) I used to pick them up at our local Asian store. OTC of course. Same as the US patches, worked perfectly.
  4. We also had waters, sparkling and flat, 2 kinds of juices (orange and ?blueberry) in small bottles and I requested a bottle of wine instead of the beer, which they gave me. Very nice.
  5. Not a fan of watching movies on tiny screens! It would not have been so bad if they had shown movies on larger screens during the cruise but that was a rare occurrence. I hope they get their act together on this issue. And it is sad that they actually lied to me about newer ships having better TV lineup when in reality they just had larger TVs with programming I am not interested in.
  6. Just got off of Divina and was very disappointed with the TV lineup. Staff on the ship blamed it on the non-smart TVs. They made it sound as if the newer ships had better programming. True? Is it any better on the newer ships? Turner Classic Movies was the only movie channel. I enjoy classic movies but they weren't showing any that I liked while on the cruise. Except for the last 2 nights, when we could not get any reception. AAAKKKKKKKK. Having cruised other lines with on demand movies, account info for cabin, menus and a great TV lineup that had news other than CNN, I was sorely disappointed. Not to mention the TV so small I could have used binoculars to see it. While we really loved the YC I do not see cruising again with MSC until they improve the TV situation. Yes, I am one of "those people" who watches television while on a cruise.
