MSC Seaside Yacht Club - some agencies offering drink package?

[floridian1]

Im looking to book msc yacht club on the seaside next summer. I'm noticing some TA's are adding in two yacht club options, regular and one with a "drink package" for more money. But I thought yacht club automatically gets your free alcoholic drinks?? whats the catch?

Drinks throughout the ship are std with the YC. There is no need for a drink pkg.

Thanks, thats what i though. 2 different internet agencies (one big, one not) hav two different pricing for a YC balcony suit. Regular price and another thats $200 more that includes a "drink package". interesting.

 

I will go with the cheaper one, thank you

I think the other agency is trying to increase their commission by your $200.00.

Could just be a lack of understanding on how things work with MSC. Somethimes I wonder if even MSC understands their own stuff. I booked a B2B on the Seaside for June of 2019 in the YC and one of the "perks" for both weeks is an "all-inclusive mealtime beverage package". This package provides nothing that I don't already get as a YC passenger. I even notified MSC about this discrepancy when I booked but never heard back.

 

However, once onboard I'm going to try to parlay this "useless" perk into another specialty dining night for us each week. ;p

Thank you everyone, I pulled the trigger and booked june 2019. The price is just too good and i found it cheaper with an online agent than anywhere else i looked.

They are trying to fool you.
