Dorset Cruiser Posted January 19, 2019 #1 Share Posted January 19, 2019 We are on the Preziosa repositioning cruise into Southampton in April. Do MSC have a carry your own luggage off option so we can get the earliest possible train back to Weymouth? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Tapi Posted January 19, 2019 #2 Share Posted January 19, 2019 We didn’t sail your route, but when we sailed in the Mediterranean, MSC didn’t advertise a self-assist option in the paperwork delivered to the stateroom the day before debarkation, which we sorely needed for an early flight home. So I went to guest relations and asked about it. First, the rep said that the earliest we’d be able to disembark would be with group 1, but after going back and forth, she confirmed that we could proceed to the debarkation point with all of our luggage and be off the ship as soon as they received the green light to go ashore. It worked out perfectly, and actually much better than when we’ve done self assist debarkation on cruises where it’s advertised as an option. We lined up about an hour before arrival, fearing a long line as we’ve experienced before, but only about 20 people showed up to disembark early. We were off the ship and on our way within 15 minutes of our arrival. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would certainly save us time and we could be home well before lunch 🙂 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
