[lindawaring2001]

Ok didn't this cruise leave today from Europe? Just wondering If anyone has seen pictures yet, not renderings but real photos!!! So exciting.

Friday Evening around Midnight.

Expect to see the first photos/videos, comments from early tomorrow afternoon. Keep an eye on YouTube!

I have sailed quite a few ships when new, within 6 months or so coming out (I'm sailing Seaside in February), not on purpose but just happens that way, and I can tell you I have never been more excited about getting on a new ship and this will be my first time on MSC.

 

Thank you for starting this thread. Maybe all will input their pictures on video on here :D

Like so many of you, we are very eagerly anticipating the first guest photos/videos from Seaside. It has been so much fun over these past months to talk about the ship, pour over renderings and then slowly see photos from the shipyard come in as well as Captain Scala's videos. All indications are that this ship is going to be simply spectacular! We sail in January and it cannot get here fast enough!!

I'm wondering .... and it'll come across as being a Debbie Downer, I'm sure ... but traveling on 'new' cruise ships ... were there 'bugs' in the systems? I don't mean real bugs ... but new ship problems? Were there any? Were they minor or major?

If the maiden voyage is Fri. at midnight ... then what are these videos? Why is the ship full of people?

[MarkusToe]

but nothing on YC (:(

[Mycykfamilytime]

I think it may have been a press/TA cruise invite type thing from the ship builder to Trieste.

Honestly, none that I was aware of when I sailed. After 4-9 months, the waiters are gelling with each other and the crew are set in their routines. Honestly, I wouldnt book a cruise the first month of sailing but after a few months, Ive had excellent cruises.

I do notice some significant flaws in the interior design of the ship, based on the first Russian video. Notice the many glass/mirrored pillars around key congestion areas, near the main specialty dining and bar venues.

Problematic why? Because of dirt and finger prints or breakage?

She looks even better than imagined. Atrium reminds me of Divinia.

 

Lots of outside seating by eating areas - wonder if all of that will actually get used especially on the hot summer routes.

With such a lot of space dedicated to outdoor areas, I wonder how congested the ship will feel when bad weather confines people to indoors - especially on sea days.

No, the traffic flow is stopped and people have to more around unneeded barriers to go to basic places, such as dining, bar, music, shopping, and other high-traffic venues!
