Hi Beamafar....did MSC automatically only charge your on board account $50 pp once they saw that you are not US citizens or did you have to ask for an adjustment? Thks.

Thks. Hi Marmatjj ... MSC just charged us the $50 - they'd be aware which country you're from by your passport and charge you accordingly. (They obviously are aware of the different fees for different nationalities). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I read as a British citizen I can get a Cuba visa in my passport before I travel for 26 quid ($35). Did you look into this before your voyage?

Did you look into this before your voyage? I did! It's only €22 for us in Ireland if we go to the Consulate in Dublin to get it - otherwise it's €44. Unfortunately, all this is moot because you must get it on the ship because you're visiting Cuba from the US. The following is from the Cuban embassy's website: If you travel to Cuba from the United States of America, by plane or by boat, you must obtain your tourist visa only in that country.

Bollinge Posted March 16, 2019 #205 Share Posted March 16, 2019 (edited) The visa agency said in writing that as we are visiting Cuba from Mexico - the previous port o’ call - the £26 visa would suffice! Clearly, more investigation required! Thanks for your prompt response. We are on a BTB in October. Cheers, John.

Rare Beamafar Posted March 16, 2019 #206 Share Posted March 16, 2019 If you're embarking in Miami, that's what Cuba will mean. We had other POCs before arriving in Cuba too. It's where the cruise starts out from that counts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thw show was indoors and brillant, not as big as the Trop show but big. A famous Cuban bonjo player show us his talent. It was all terrifric, and the Hotel Nacional on Saturday night is the place to go. We are looking into the Le Parisean, and was wondering how you booked this package? We will be on a cruise, not staying in a hotel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
