little miss chatterbox Posted November 19, 2019 #1 Share Posted November 19, 2019 We booked a New Years cruise on Divina in January just had a call from our TA to inform us that we have been moved to the room next door. The reason given was that it wasn’t in a saleable condition....we still have over a month to go, so I cant see why? I’m new to MSC. What would you guys do (I cant work out if opposite the new room is a service room)? Thanks in advance xxxxxx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sidari Posted November 19, 2019 #2 Share Posted November 19, 2019 It could be that your previous room was for 3 or 4 people and a family have booked meaning you have been moved to a cabin for 2. It could also be to balance numbers for the Lifeboats. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From what I can see its the same size and class cabin....I’m not happy with the fact that they are saying its not in a saleable condition and I can see someone else being in there when we get on. I didn’t think about the lifeboat thing though....why don’t they just say that, I’d prefer that. Thanks for replying, much appreciated Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
April42749 Posted November 20, 2019 #4 Share Posted November 20, 2019 You are saying "saleable"....not "sailable" correct? If so, it may mean that it wasn't for sale for you....maybe because of size etc...as others had said. "Sailable" would me that it needs repairs etc. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare steamboats Posted November 20, 2019 #5 Share Posted November 20, 2019 MSC doesn´t guarantee a certain room number although you can chose when you book. It´s in their fine print that they can change the room whenever they want and for whatever reason. Usually it´s some sort of an upgrade but it can be within the same category too. steamboats Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mickey89 Posted November 20, 2019 #6 Share Posted November 20, 2019 (edited) If the particular cabin is important to you get written confirmation before you book that this rule will not be invoked. We have written confirmation from MSC that our YC cabin will not be changed without our prior approval.

little miss chatterbox Posted November 20, 2019 Author #8 Share Posted November 20, 2019 It’s not the room that’s important to us, I think its more because I’m a little (DH says A LOT) nosey so wanted to know why they would do that. Thanks so much for your replies xxx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
