HELP!! 1st time booking with MSC and not going well
mike60707 replied to mike60707's topic in MSC Cruises
Any recommendations for a GOOD travel agent? usually book direct , haven't had great luck with a couple cruise agencies -
Good afternoon, need an EXPERIENCED MSC cruiser or referral to a MSC specialist travel agent. 50+ cruises with Royal Caribbean plus princess, carnival, celebrity, but have never had this many problems with MSC. We are trying to book a Northern Europe cruise for December onboard the Preziosa. Status match should be Diamond with MSC. Concierge not a big help, gave me wrong info....reservations gave friends and me different info, etc.....HELP !!! Thanks, Mike (Chicago)

OKAY !! AVIS rent a car Orlando airport to Port Canaveral is the absolute BEST way to go on 11/23. so now......Port back to airport.....CORTRANS OR CRUISE CONTROL....,Anyone use them before? any comments or suggestions? Cortrans $60 total, Cruise Control $50 total....assume they're both ok and reliable

First time after many many cruises, I'm stumped. (My bad)...lol Arriving into Orlando at 5pm from Chicago on Thanksgiving day and plan on staying in Cocoa Beach that night....Well, between Uber, Taxi, shuttle, etc, pricing are coming in at between $150 to $200 one way from the airport to cocoa beach for that evening. Any suggestions? Otherwise guess we'll stay close to the airport and take Royal Caribbean transfers on Friday morning to Port Canaveral (Allure)

Got it !! Thank you very much

Welcome aboard letter for Elite passengers
mike60707 replied to mike60707's topic in Celebrity Cruises
Thanks very much, but wondering if they offer bogo (buy one get one) at the specialty restaurants, etc....and, sorry, the upgrade to the premium drink package? Do we call to get that? (at a discounted price) -
Good afternoon everyone, Does anyone have a copy/picture of the welcome aboard letter received in their stateroom (for Elite guests) ? Was just curious what benefits are waiting for us when we board .... Thanks so much!! Mike Chicago

Good morning, just a quick question (I should know the answer) lol......we received our cabin assignment today for our Christmas Cruise on the Reflection. We had a GTY Prime inside cabin category which is fine. BUT, they assigned us a wheelchair handicapped accessible stateroom. We've had those before, and of course the cabin is larger, but just a bit awkward as counters, sink, etc is lowered for a passenger in a wheelchair. How is Celebrity about changing the cabin assignment even to a smaller cabin if we really don't like utilizing a handicapped accessible stateroom. Waiting for a call back from reservaions (current hold time is about 1 hour)....Thanks in advance for your help and information on the subject. Mike

Good morning, just a quick question...first time Celebrity (Diamond Plus on RCI - not sure if we'll make Pinnacle)... Does Celebrity give you any type of discounts and or specials. i.e. BOGO at specialty restaurants, etc. like RCI does.....Upon arrival in your RCI cabin there's a welcome letter with what Diamond Plus members can take advantage of during the cruise..... Also, booked the cruise well over a year in advance (took advantage of an amazing offer for an inside guarantee (first time in an inside cabin) but couldn't refuse the deal we found.....the cruise now is sold out for Inside/Oceanview cabins....does anyone have any experience with this being an Elite and MAYBE getting upgraded due the guarantee category you're booked in is sold out? Thanks in advance for everyone's information on this subject.

Quantum of the Seas - What is the best Junior Suite
mike60707 replied to mike60707's topic in Royal Caribbean International
Thank you, its funny, when I call Royal, reservations or Crown & Anchor, they say these cabins don't exist...just a little frustrating.....Love the JS with the tub and she seperate shower.....dont need the one with 1 1/2 bath....going to book a J4 and hope for the best lol , thanks again -
Good morning from Chicago !! Confirmed on Quantum next year and looking to upgrade to a JS. I've watched many videos, read probably way too much, but can anyone recommend what they believe is the "best" JS/category........Some videos show a shower across from the bathtub, some show a 2nd bathroom (1/2 bath) and when calling Royal Caribbean they say these cabins dont exist..... Thanks in advance for your recommendations .

Done, Thank you! Mini Suite on Deck 16 Sky Princess .....
-
Good morning! Thank you very much, called Princess and upgraded to a mini suite on Deck 16, Lido Deck, (L210)....lol Appreciate your help.
-
Any suggestions for a good mini suite (and location) on sky princess ? Thank you
-
Thank you very much for your reply.....just want to confirm...(sorry) but if we get a mini suite on say deck 14 or 15, those that have standard balcony cabins above us cannot look directly down onto our balcony. I do understand what you're saying about the tiered on grand/caribbean princess, we had people throwing things down on our balcony. Thanks again for your help

Good afternoon everyone, looking for someone VERY familiar with Sky Princess (mini suites)...... Qustion (Help!!) Have enjoyed mini suites on Grand & Caribbean Princess, the only thing that bothered us with the extended room/balcony the passengers with a standard balcony cabin over us could look directly down onto our balcony (did that make sense) ? LOL We love Lido deck on sky but cabins above on deck 17 are all standard balconies There are mini suites on Deck 14 (riviera) and looks like some with mini suites above on deck 15..... Any suggestions for a good cabin location?? Thanks much, Mike

Hey, happy Friday....have an extremely ignorant question for you...lol...we cruise a lot...platinum on carnival, diamond plus royal caribbean......going with another couple in a couple weeks on a 3 day carnival cruise.....IF we dedide to get the drink package, (here goes)...can you get two drinks at a time? (if you get my drift)....share with other couple .....or if you get a bucket of beer, does each beer in the bucket go towards your max for the day? Not that we're going to drink a lot, but we have quite a bit of OBC and drink package would be quite a deal.....basically, if I get a drink at the bar, can I go back and get another one 5 minutes later.....I know pool waiters are always cool, maybe if I take care of him/her they will take care of us......thoughts??
