Fantastica?

So my casino host contacted me last week and offered my wife and I a free cruise on the MSC Seaside. We decided to take her up on the offer and booked the Feb 2, 2019 sailing. 

 

This is our first time on MSC and it appears much different than the Carnival and RC cruises we have been on in the past. I have never heard of the different "categories" they offer. 

 

When we recieved our initial confirmation from MSC it stated we were in a I2 cabin. The next day when I logged in, it assigned us a room B2, which is awesome. 

 

From the research I have done it looks like both I2 and B2 are both Fantastica categories. It looks like this category offered some drink coupons, but that was cancelled last month so we do not qualify? So... other than free room service are there any other perks we would receive?

 

Also, our casino host did tell us we would recieve free drinks in the casino. Anyone have experience with this? What type of drinks am I allowed to order? Are these drinks only when a server comes around to the machines, or am I allowed to go up to the casino bar and order myself?

Casino bookings can be quirky.  A normal booking at that date would have qualified for the "Drinks On Us" package in substitution of the vouchers, look on your MSC booking documents for this name.  I don't use them but casino perks vary by cruise line and casino loyalty.  There are others here that can probably help more, but from what I understand MSC will rate you and make offers based on your play.  If you have Drinks On Us I've attached what it is good for,  it has a 15% gratuity of drink value added to your on board account.  Casino free drinks are probably better in there.

Thank you Ate. Does anyone else have experience with the free drinks in the casino?
