Hi we are doing our first cruise on the Divina on the 30th April, we have booked Fantastica and been allocated 12180. From reading reviews it doesn't look to be a very good cabin so I have contacted our TRavel agent to ask for it to be changed. Have we done the right thing? Also we have got a status match to Black (after we had booked and paid for the cruise) will this influence our getting a better cabin ? We are not asking for an upgrade just a nicer cabin on the same deck but with a seating area. Our friends have been allocated an aft cabin on the same deck which looks amazing!

We have booked our first cruise on the 30 April, my husband took some convincing but the stay in Miami included in the package we booked clinched it! A couple of weeks after booking I read about the status match I called the MSC office in the UK on the Sunday morning to ask which hotel cards they matched with and was able to match my husband's Club Accor platinum card. They asked me to email a copy of the card and the following day we received an email and letter giving him Black, this was about 3 weeks ago. When I made the initial call to MSC the agent said the Black benefits would not be applicable to this cruise as we had already booked but the letter we have states that the benefits start immediately. So fingers crossed! Only thing now is trying to get our balcony cabin changed to one with a sofa/ seating area. (I have read too many reviews since making our reservation......)
