They already have a paid pizza parlour on some ships - Jamie’s and Giovannis

I believe they e been removed this year. They were still on oasis in November but have since been removed according to reviews

Not regarding pizza, only price ranges for dining packages

I replied that I wouldn’t pay for it and it would make me reconsider cruising with them. I have a cruise booked for December that was booked last year, future cruises I will definitely shop around and go with the best combo of price/ itinerary/ quality, whoever that may be

It was for speciality. They asked for feedback on two package options - UDP at $399 or $499 credit for $399

I had heard that before my cruise, but wasn’t impressed with pizza on MSC. It was only good if you got a fresh one straight out of the oven, otherwise like the rest of the food on MSC it was lukewarm. And even hot it wasn’t great - but maybe I was expecting as good as you get in Italy based on what people on cc had said 🤷🏼‍♀️

Worked for me

Icon is rumoured to have wizard of oz

When we had MTD in November on oasis we were seated within about 5 minutes every night except lobster night, which was about 10 minutes. Even when lines were long they moved pretty fast, so it looked worse than it actually was. they also tried to keep us at the same table (we didn’t ask for that) but about half way through gave us the option of getting a table straight away but in a different area, or waiting and having the same table as previous nights. and I maybe the odd one out, but we liked dynamic dining! And prefer MTD to traditional (early is too early and late is too late for us).

On most ships, MTD doesn’t start until 6.45 I believe, certainly on the oasis class ships I’ve been on.

We did an MSC cruise from Cuba, so there were no Americans on board, just lots of Canadians and Europeans (we are European). food - bad. Usually cold to luke warm, pizza I had been really looking forward to based on reviews on CC but it was no better than sorrentos. entertainment - poor. That’s compared to oasis & anthem, celebrity and P&O. listening to everything repeated in so many languages got really tiring by the end of it. service - poor. Very Italian! So laid back, you’d wait ages to hear back, nothing was on time etc. we got status matched from a hotel status to their highest status - I dread to think how we would have been treated without it 😂 we both said at the end of it MSC would never be our first choice again unless they were the only ones offering the itinerary we wanted (which was the case with Cuba, as no is based companies can go there). Not bad enough to say never again, but not good enough to consider before RCI, celebrity, P&O, NCL, virgin etc

We were automatically seated at the same table the first few nights. Then one night they asked us if we wanted to be seated straight away, if so it would be in a different section, or we could wait for our usual table. We aren’t bothered about the same table/ staff so had a different table. They then gave us that table for the rest of the cruise.

We were there in November on oasis and ovation was also there. No problem getting loungers on the beach, but if you want a specific location e.g. front row or shade, get off asap to claim your spot. Didn’t have to wait for drinks or food, and also managed to get a spot at the swim up bar at south beach in the afternoon.

Which loungers and umbrellas do you have to pay for? I thought they were all free outside of beach club and the water park.

I thought someone did the tour on the Bella cruise?

OP couldn’t comment in the new menu on oasis - they said they didn’t eat in the MDR. OP - did you try to switch to early dining once onboard?

What is icon grill? I don’t remember seeing that. Park cafe will also be open with light food and drink options (pastries, bagels etc). However it was a zoo on our last morning - really long queues that just didn’t seem to move.

Oasis class now has non smoking casinos in what was jazz in 4. They have already put them on wonder and oasis and re converting the others.

I don’t believe there’s an up charge for the lobster thermidor in 150. the free lobster tail in MDR is on Royal Night

I had the duck, I really enjoyed it

Yes they do

If you’re a billionaire you’re more likely to go yachting than in a cruise I would have thought? For privacy if nothing else.

🤮

In theory yes, but there’s been lots of reports of it opening late. I would suggest checking daily (at least) from 1st April.
