    any problems with jellyfish or sea lice on ocean cay? Is the water warm? Is there a shuttle from cruise ship to beach?
  4. Hi - we are getting off msc seaside and staying the day in Orlando so we can go to Disney Christmas party. We want a hotel that will allow for early check in like noon so we can sleep, need to get up at 6m to leave for our 20 hour trip back home so we want to get good rest day before after we get off ship. If anyone knows of a hotel brand near Disney that allows early check in for a fee please let me know.

    Hi - I'm new to MSC, First cruise coming up in November on the Seaside. for years been wanting to go but the reviews always made me book elsewhere. I finally got a price I couldn't walk away from. I have sailed Disney Carnival and RCCL for comparison's sake. What drinks are available for free at buffet? At Dining room. We are big water drinkers and I hear there are to packaged water deliveries. Is this true? We also cant bring it on the ship correct? Sort of stinks we have to run back and forth to buffet to get water. Is there a hot cocoa machine on board at buffet? We booked 2 rooms the second being for my 21 year old son. They said I had to put his name twice on room because no single occupancy. Are we going to have problems when we board that he has two tickets for his room with both being him? It seems so odd that you can't just put one name and be charged more as other cruise lines do it. Are we able to get a table for two for the dining room? Is there a show equivalent to love and marriage show? Do the beds seperate? Which terminal do we sail from and what time can we start boarding? What time is busiest at port? We want to avoid long lines at port my son has ankle contractures, and we will be requesting wheelchair assistance because he can't stand for long periods of time. I will have a scooter for myself as I have very bad fibromyalgia which makes standing for long periods of time very difficult. Is there a separate line or do we hop in line with everyone else? Still would like to arrive when least amount of waiting as my son has autism and waits are difficult for him. What do I need to know about safety drill? do they do the loud alarms? That usually freaks out my son, on other cruises he is allowed to stay in room and watch briefing to avoid the loud sounds and mass chaos of everyone going where they need to get. Pool towels available by the pools or take one from room? Anything else I need to know about first time on msc?
  6. We were looking at cabins available deck 2 aft on liberty. They look bigger than typical which sounds great. I know some of the ships you can feel the vibration pretty bad down there. How about liberty? Also worried about Sea Sickness. We typically never had a problem with Sea sickness except one time all the way forward top deck but the waters were super choppy.
  7. Hi all, typically we sail the newer carnival ships have done some RCCL and Disney. We love Carnival for the food options. Have always been intrigued by MSC but I always see negative review of the foods. My son with autism is pretty picky and doesn't like complicate foods. Is there just plain peperoni pizza? Is the sauce thin or lumpy? He doesn't like chunky tomatoes. For the pasta do they have some with just alfredo or butter sauce? I hear the burgers and hot dogs are not good, what about chicken tenders or mac and cheese? Is there room service, is it free? The main comp places to eat are just buffet or main dining rooms, correct? There are no quick grill places on pool deck? Any place that sells crepes? Any other big differences I should know about? When trying to book online how do you do multiple rooms? We will need 3 and I can't find the option. We are looking for ships out of Port Canaveral Oct 2023 which would be Seaside. Not sure if Meragvilia will be there still then, it does not list it as being so at that point. We usually do trivia, shows, comedians - all these offered. Which side of ship for good view of lighthouse port or starboard or front or aft? What is cancellation policy? What is current vax or testing requirements - I don't need all the details I will look more into it just wondering if they have lifted vax requirements as daughter to vaxxed.
