MSC Preziosa UK based summer 2019

Hi B - "good deals to be had but I literally have to SCOUR the various websites daily"!! P

Oops ... sorry! Didn't get that first time 'round. :o

Hi Bea, I am most likely being thick, as I don’t get it. Any chance you could try and cryptically explain it to me. Looking to book Preziosa for July 2019.

Sorry, Ashling. I had no luck with Google. It's a little too vague for me. I didn't follow up with panamapd as I'm not currently looking to book - I already have 3 cruises ahead of me.

Hi Bea, I join the seaview on the 9th of June this year, however my hubby and I have a big mile stone to celebrate next year and thought a cruise ex UK in yacht club would be nice.

That would be more than nice! ;p We were in YC on Preziosa back in 2014. That was a very memorable cruise that we did for our anniversary. I'm sure you'll love it if you do get to do it.

We'll be YC on Splendida at the end of March to celebrate DH's 60th birthday - can't wait. :D

Bea, this wil be a return visit to Preziosa. We did out first MSC cruise on Preziosa in YC in 2016, loved the YC so much we did meraviglia 2017 and yet to come, Seaview 2018 :D. I am enjoying reading the Seaside reviews, both good and bad.

Same here, though, unlike you, I don't have any plans to sail either on her or Seaview for the foreseeable future.

We met NorwegianCruiser on Meraviglia; he's booked on Seaview in July and had asked me if we'd join him. I was tracking the prices as I thought we could stretch to an inside in YC if I got a 30% discount voucher from the casino on our recent cruise. Well, I got the voucher and checked the prices only to discover that they had almost doubled!!! From €1769 pp to €2969 pp - I kid you not!! For an inside. Needless to say, we won't be joining our good friends from Norway this year. I booked Poesia for later in the year with the discount and got a very favourable price.

Sea cruisers (YouTube) are currently on board Seaside on a group cruise I think or have been recently. They posted the pre-cruise vlog 23 hours ago. Should get some good footage and several uncut honest opinions. I booked Divina after their videos so can’t wait to see more.

Hi Panamapd

Thank you, very useful. Do you happen to know when it may go on sale in the UK?

I would give the call centre a ring and ask to speak to Stuart Chalmers and explain friends on cc are able to book. He will know how to if it’s possible

Strange, 2019 is available to book on the UK site - I booked a med cruise on Friday. If we change that to southampton departures it doesn't give any options... I quite fancy the fjords at the start of July for my birthday!

Hi mark

Thanks for the information

I did call today, however didnt manage to speak to Stuart Chalmers. I spoke to a very nice/helpful lady who confirmed they are still uploading the preziosa cruises in to their website, hence the delay. She asked me for my contact details and said she will call me directly when they go on sale. I suspect they will go on sale very soon:)

Stuart only deals with you after a booking is made (unless there's an issue. In our case, the reservations' staff couldn't process our casino discount voucher - Stuart attends to the likes of that). He used to phone me back, but now it's all emails. He works from home a lot, so is not always available for calls.

FYI there are a selection of Preziosa Southampton sailings now available!

Bea, quite a pricejump for the YC on the MSC Seaview in July. So I really understand your choice. Would love that you joined us though:cool: It was so nice to meet you on the Meraviglia.

Now I see a chance for us to meet up. If you book the Preziosa in July or August 2019 to the Fjords you the ship will make a port of call in our homecity :D Prepare for a private city tour with the Norwegians ;)

I was convinced we'd be joining you on Seaview with the 40%+ discount we had, NC, so I was really disappointed to see the price rise so significantly. I'll be tracking Preziosa's prices for next year - a private city tour with 2 wonderful Norwegians sounds very attractive, indeed! :*

JPMoore - thanks for the heads up!!

I see they have cruises listed for Apr, May, Aug & sept. Do you think that is the final listing. We were looking to travel in july 2019 so I am a little disappointed. I incorrectly assumed they would be sailing ex southampton for summer 2019. Oh well roll on June for our trip on Seaview

Have just booked a YC cabin on the Preziosa sailing on 30/04/2019. Waiting for the Jun/ Jul itineries to be released.

Ouch... our Divina YC out of Miami was £50 cheaper with flights (from London) than YC out of Southampton.

They aren't open for sale on the Irish travel agents system yet for April.

I've just booked the 22 April sailing in the YC. Will they have kettles in the YC cabins as well do you think?
