Glad the concierge is taking care of your drink packages etc. etc.… Can’t wait to hear about the cruise critic meeting With other cruise critic guests....never heard of that!!! Good luck in the casino !!! Have a great day today 😎 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Beamafar Posted May 27, 2019 #106 Share Posted May 27, 2019 Nikki .... how did they know you were a CC member (or who the other CC members are)? I'm assuming there wasn't an M&M register for your cruise, what with it being in the Med. Very strange that the YC concierge would have non-YC cards for printing. I wonder is it to do with indicating your drinks package, that they didn't issue a YC card. 🤔 Despite it being a non-YC one, your cards would, more than likely, be programmed to allow access to the enclave. Still, this is yet another new event in the saga of YC upgrades. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would go as far as to say it was crab sticks! From the pics that looks like "crab stic" crab flavored fish product--typical also in grocery store sushi. Unfortunate given this is YC. Food looks nice. Any fresh pastas made on board? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did join the roll call for this week and someone posted that if they had 6 registered then MSC would organise drinks, I wasn’t expecting anything to happen so was a big surprise this morning when the concierge called me to say it was a dinner!

Rare nikkiw60 Posted May 27, 2019 Author #111 Share Posted May 27, 2019 We have just done a fabulous street food tour with a company called Streaty, it was 38 euros each and we had a very good tour with plenty to eat and drink!

Nice one! It's the first time I've heard of them organising anything for a Med cruise. Enjoy! 😊 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had noticed CC has left the M&M's showing for all year Divina sailings but thought it was just a relic. This is also the first time I've heard MSC recognize CC members on a European sailing. Most of those Roll Calls are hard to get going and have very few participants, if MSC starts recognizing CC members in Europe it may help. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare nikkiw60 Posted May 27, 2019 Author #115 Share Posted May 27, 2019 We have ( or should I say I have) decided that we are going to try to upgrade on the Bellissima next April...it will be my birthday whilst we are on that cruise so that would be good to do, only thing is Yacht Club is showing full at the moment!
