sidari Posted September 4, 2013 #32 Share Posted September 4, 2013 Judith ... It seems that MSC are only selling the Premium to people in Europe despite the Classic being available to North American cruisers! Europeans it seems are being treated like second class cruisers.

This is the response I got from them when I messaged them on Facebook. Hi Judith, 'Allegrissimo' drinks packages for 2014 cruises will be available in 2014. You will find all info on our website soon. Best Regards, MSC Cruises I also phoned the US office to be told I can't book it through them either seems crazy.

sidari Posted September 4, 2013 #34 Share Posted September 4, 2013 Judith ... Welcome to the crazy world of Arthur Brown .. I mean MSC! the packages will likely not be available for your cruise until next year. October 2012 we were told that the Allegrissimo was not available for our Poesia cruise from Barcelona to Fort Lauderdale, low and behold we get on the ship and and were able to book it at the first bar we came to! For this years Divina repo also in November we are told that only the Premium is available to book here despite having received an E mail with details of the Allegrissimo Classic and its price form MSC UK.

tigger89 Posted September 5, 2013 #35 Share Posted September 5, 2013 When I spoke to MSC USA they said we can book once on board but then we have the 15% service charge to pay which I think is unfair. Judith Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sidari Posted September 5, 2013 #36 Share Posted September 5, 2013 One reason i believe that they are failing to update their website so people can book online!which means they have no choice but to pay the 15%. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are doing 14 nights so works out about an extra $92 per person so it soon adds up. I always pay my tips and also tip the staff I deal with on a daily basis as an extra. Would it be frowned upon if I held back some of the statutory tips at the end of the cruise. Judith Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Judith The Hotel charge as they call it is not mandatory though if you decide not to pay it i would leave it until near the end of the cruise rather than at the start to remove it!

Just don't like to punish the staff because MSC can't sort out their website. But when the total extra for 8 of us is over $730 then it get a bit annoying.

sidari Posted September 5, 2013 #40 Share Posted September 5, 2013 (edited) Judith ... It is as you say a bit tricky but MSC have not been looking after their customers so well recently especially those who are repeat cruisers and the Divina November 13 repo and the Armonia Cancelled Egypt to Venice repo in march 2014 stand out as not their fineist moments, so i can understand the way you feel.

The thing that annoys me is I would be punishing the people who would have looked after us for two weeks. We still have over a year till we cruise hopefully by then they may have sorted it out. Will you be doing a trip report on your cruise. Judith Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sidari Posted September 5, 2013 #42 Share Posted September 5, 2013 Not sure if there will be one during the cruise but you never know, but certainly when we get back, hopefully when Giles Hawke takes over at MSC UK things may well change for the better and they need to especially the website.

mikesteg Posted September 13, 2013 #45 Share Posted September 13, 2013 (edited) Good morning Sidari, I certainly understand. Our web marketing has not given us a date as to when it will be available online. In order to get the points towards MSC Club, may I recommend that you book once you are onboard. (should the package not be added to the website.) The Allegrissimo packages will be available for purchase onboard the ship as well. Regards, Hi MSC, Could you clarify on the soda package ("Offers unlimited consumption of “on tap” sodas ")? Will that be available online at some point? I see the various Allegrissimo packages, but not the soda, doremi, or cocktail packages. Also, will the 'unlimited' soda package be available for purchase by just one passenger in a cabin? My wife would like one, and I can live with it either way. However, my 2 kids aren't allowed soda routinely so that's not a winner to buy them a package. Anyway, prior conversation indicates that soda packages can be bought individually, but it's not clear if that is only the voucher books or also includes the unlimited package. Thank you.

teegeezfun Posted September 22, 2013 #47 Share Posted September 22, 2013 hi sailing msc again after one other trip several years ago to panama canal on opera. i don't recall the cafe speciality coffee arrangements we encountered back then. i don't drink alcohol in any form, nor am in interested in soda. i do enjoy specialty coffees and will be spending much of my time hanging around where the specialty coffee is being served. on Divina that would be in the gelateria correct? and it looks like doremi with its vouchers would work for me although specialty coffee is not specifically listed in the description. anyone know for sure?

AmoMondo Posted September 22, 2013 #48 Share Posted September 22, 2013 Doremi doesn't include coffees. It's fresh fruit juices, smoothies, milkshake s and non alcholic cocktails. Coffees are available at almost all bars. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So where do i get iced coffee and how much is it. i think on opera there was a proper coffee bar where we could get our iced coffee and cappuchino Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bigger range of coffees will be available at Caffe Italiano (deck7 atrium) or Piazza de Doge (deck 6 near the atrium). The latter was one of my favourite spots on the Fantasia. You can also get cakes and pastries there (extra charge) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
