Also, would you mind verifying for me that the comped cruise is an inside Bella or 30% off your choice of cabin?

On our Med Divina cruise a couple of years ago I had a cannoli at the YC restaurant that BLEW ME AWAY. I've had some cannolis in my life. This one was incredible. Unfortunately, it was at dinner the last night of the cruise! Leaving Saturday on Seaside. I'm going to seek out a cannoli right after we board! Haha

Marcoigna - I'm writing very lightheartedly with a smile. I am in no way trying to upset you or anyone. Just want to say that because sometimes the written word can be misconstrued as you can't judge tone or body language.

WOW! Isn’t this what these boards are for - to find out information? - maybe i don’t understand!!! Oh wait, maybe you don’t understand ....

WOW! [emoji1]

If you don't want a debate on THESE boards, don't bother asking a question [emoji23]. Once you ask, telling people not to debate is silly. As I tell kids "When you choose the behavior, you choose the consequences", especially on these boards. I'm doing it right now!

You can just wait to board the ship and find out yourself if the sun comes through the glass panels. I don't understand why getting an answer to this question in advance is imperative.

Thanks for the review. We board Saturday! This will be our 3rd YC sailing, twice on Divina.

I can totally understand when people are disappointed with check in when arriving in the afternoon but it is not at all fair to arrive at 10:30am and expect everything to be set up and waiting for you. We show up early too, and I'm grateful that they try their best to accommodate us, but no one has a check in time of 10:30a on their boarding documents.

As per the 1% in the YC, not even close. It is SO MUCH MORE affordable than any other suite product available on other lines. I don't think anyone booking YC is richer, they're just smarter! Haha - joking, I'm joking!

Thanks again.

Are diffusers permitted onboard? We will be on the Seaside (this Saturday, finally!)

Lets just say my money did and enjoyed it so much it decided to stay !!!!

Hahaha - that made me giggle. My money LOVES casinos. :rolleyes::rolleyes:ONE WEEK until we are in the Royal Suite on Seaside. We have been waiting YEARS for this. Every review of the YC I have been reading gets better and better. SO excited!

One more question- should we turn off wifi (when in airplane mode) when we are not using the MSC for Me app or internet? I imagine we will, but in case we forget.

No, not that I have heard. Plenty of treadmills though.

And I'll be "the one" who points it out - dining has one "n". Dinner has two. I was fine the first half dozen times but...

Ok I thought there was a table by some of the early pictures . But it would be nice to have one.

PLEASE don't book YC if you are hesitant. It is hard enough to find an open YC cabin. Those of us who love YC would prefer you book Bliss. (And if you think YC doesn't come cheap you haven't compared "apples to apples".

MSC customer service does not respond to any request. They just want to sell cruises. Clients do not care about them. SR Number: 2-8878411186. More No deals with MSC! P.S. By the way, I have a Black membership card from MSC. This is a top-level membership card. Interestingly, top managers or owners of MSC know that their employees are loafers and parasires!?

Thank you for the review! We’ve been counting down to our stay in the Royal Suite for about a year now, and still have 6 months to wait. So excited to hear that Vishnu was your butler. He IS fantastic! Which suite were you in—port side or starboard side? Also excited to hear that you got a cabana. The first reviewers in December said that the Royal Suite did not come with a cabana. Sorry to hear there is still no dining table on the deck as hyped by MSC in their preview video. We have our two adult children and their significant others staying in the YC with us, and were looking forward to having some meals as a family at that table. It was one of the reasons we booked the suite. Thanks for your review.

I appreciate you specifically mentioning the benefits of Aurora. We're in the process of picking an MSC cruise date for later this year and the YC only has availability in royal suite making it more than we wish to spend. We're trying to decide between a different week (which would be less convenient with our schedule) or getting an Aurora suite on the week we prefer (which would be the cost of the YC balcony). Any opinion on our (first world!) quandary?

Great review ! I love all of the details ! Two questions . .

 

What did you think about the coffee available in the buffets ? I don't like the Specialty Coffee served in Venchi , I just like plain black coffee .

 

And secondly , what was your impression of the on board shops? Any great offerings or bargains ? TIA

I'm not a "shopper" but I do love browsing. I haven't heard a thing about the onboard shops. Good question.

Turn off mobile data and roaming, leave WiFi on :)

Boarding Seaside in a week. We have the MSC for Me app installed on our phones and we purchased an internet package. What do we turn on/off on our phones so we don't get a surprise T-Mobile bill after the cruise but are able to access app and internet?

Thanks!

Great review, following!

And I completely agree with you about the general pool deck.

We will be in a Royal Suite on the Seaside in 11 days! Can't wait. Did you use the hot tub on the balcony much? We were in the Sofia Loren Suite on the Divina a couple of years ago but the balcony was strange. The Seaside's looks much better.

Europeans typically eat quite late (10pm) with children. Though they've tried to accommodate early and late diners it doesn't seem to eork on the Seaside. Yet another reason we only book YC on MSC ships but regular balcony cabins on other lines are fine with us. Such a huge difference.

We did YC on Divina in the Med. Very port intensive itinerary. Terrific trip!

we did leave our card in the slot, and used the wristbands to enter the cabin
