This is what shows on safari but not on chrome!

right, bc there is not a 25th month lol lets hope all goes well then and the Americans at the port read it correctly lol

I just got me docs for my sailing on Sunday, which were inputted as m/d/y on webcheck in but are now showing inverted on edocs. the lady on the phone assured me that they are correct (passport dates would be 1/4/19 as example but showing 4/1/19 on edocs). Anyone else experiencing this? she has sent me 3 copies of the tickets and they are all the inverted dates to which she said its like that because its an Italian company.

Thank you. Yeah I travel with custody docs when crossing the border just found it very weird that a cruise line would also ask for this as well.

Im sorry that happened to you. We travel about 3x a year across land and air to take cruises and visit our vacation property in the US, and while I carry the custody papers on me every time, I have only been asked when he was a toddler (he is now 12). Our passports have the same surname. I understand being asked to show proof at border crossings but find it weird to be asked on cruise especially on our Canadian passports where they can assume Ive already been asked to provide the proof upon entering the country. I guess we have just been lucky. I did just called MSC and they told me that custody paperwork is sufficient and the affadavit is specially for when the child is not travelling with a custodial parent. We've been cursing for 8 years and have never been asked upon embarkation so I just found this piece of information very weird.

Where did you find this? Ive searched everywhere on the site. ty!

I have never had this in all our years travelling on cruises with my child. How does this work for sole support parents? They expect me to track down this individual whom I haven't spoken to nor even know where he lives in about 10 years to ask him permission to take my son on a cruise? They don't even ask me at the border for the custody paperwork....

Yes my purchases finally showed up. Thanks! I booked through a TA so under payments on the site nothing is showing. I am not getting any emails with invoices either. All I have is the booking email through the TA (cruises dot com)

Would this one allow to check Facebook? Also, how is the chat feature on the MSC and Me app? I bought my son wifi but realized I need to be able to communicate with him but I don't need the bells and whistles (jut Facebook and iMessage if the chat in the app is garbage)

First time on MSC. I have 40$ OBC and just made 2 pre-purchases for my upcoming cruise and do not see anywhere on the app or website my OBC nor under purchases it says I have not made any (they are currently pending on my credit card). Is this normal?

I got status matched to silver. Is the obc for this tier only when you’ve booked directly or within 6months etc?

Thank you for your updates! I am loyal to Royal and just booked on the Seaside for September. After doing some research I was having buyers remorse (Booked Bella) but the more reviews I read and videos I watch Im starting to change my perspective. I had a question about the Fun Pass. Ive seen in videos of the "buy more play more" but in my planner there is just the option for 70$ and says nothing that buying this will give extra. Was your experience the same with prepurchasing? Thanks!!

Thank you neighbour! (From Oshawa lol)

Yeah except we are Canadian—only for US residents.

Come and report back to me about your experience. Im watching videos and the ship looks beautiful so Im just going to go with that aspect and enjoy a new experience lol

Thanks to all for your responses. I knew booking this that it was going to be hard to compare to RCL (travel group has diamond status members so we are seasoned cruisers). I told myself I was going to go into it with an open mind and just wanted to be mentally prepared beforehand knowing what was and wasn't included. We wanted to try a new line and so here we are. Vacations are what you make of it and I will just be happy to have the privilege to be on a cruise (just got off of Anthem TA in May and Allure in October) so soon again. I appreciate all your responses which allowed me to change my perspective on this upcoming cruise. I look forward to trying something new 🙂

Just booked a cruise out of Port Canaveral on the Seaside bc the price was too good to pass up. I am having buyers remorse the more research I do into this line: Im sorry, but there are certain shows that are an additional cost?! A whole billiard room that has a COST? Coming from RCL which offers a variety of family friendly options included (zipline, bumper cars, ice skating etc) I guess we will be spending our time in the waterpark area. I am going into this cruise with an open mind but some of these amenities additional costs are a bit much. Anything else that will shock me when I board? I already see that bc I booked Bella I can't choose my dining time or preference of table size until I board.

How’s the “engine issues”? We are heading in a TA in a few weeks and getting anxious about our ports. Any changes to your itinerary?

Heading on Anthem for a TA in a few weeks. Anyone currently on Anthem who can update us on these engine issues? I read an article that made changes to a 2024 sailing shes taking which makes me worried about our ports. thanks!!

Ty. I checked there and there’s 2 categories, 1C and 2C (quad and double). How do I know which I’m in? My edocs still say gty. There’s only 2 of us but I’m hoping to steal the bed and put the kiddo on the sofa. edit: nm I checked on Royal site and the * indicates up to 4 so it must be a sofa bed 🙂 ty!

I have this room for a cruise in a few weeks: I can’t find a clear answer online—is the sofa a bed? Some sites say the room accommodates 3 so I’m wondering if it’s a bed or a pull man in the room.

Putting there here bc there is no port of call for Azores 🙂 I am looking for recos for ATV/Buggy tours in Azores that allow 12 year olds. Thanks!

lol well he has a phone data only but we are not bringing it and I’m am Most definitely NOT putting any of my credit or debit cards on it lol

Thank you! Sounds like it’s just easiest to get us (or at least one of us) oyster card and the other uses Apple Pay.
