If you see Ramchandra on your cruise tell him Larry, Jamie, Paul, Haley and Dylan think he is the best butler with MSC. We were fortunate to have him as a junior butler on one cruise and butler on the next. Always enjoy your trips and hoping you have a GREAT cruise.

Agree totally with this tipping concept. Asked a butler why he was in the Caribbean instead of the Mediterranean, which was closer to his home, he replied Americans tip better and a lot of others don't.

This happens to me all the time. Wanted to cruise last September and nothing was available until first of December. More work for my travel agent as she has to work week by week until she can get a room.

I don't do stairs and have used the elevators in my 10+MSC cruises for the muster drill. There will be guides outside the YC area just tell them you don't do stairs. No problem.

On the Seascape we had the butler open the divider for us.

Thany you everyone for your responses.

We cannot bring up any excursions for Grand Cayman or George Town on our available excursions for our cruise. The excursion block comes up gray and unable to even see the excursions. No problems with the rest of our cruise ports. Anyone know why this is happening?

Anyone have the number to the casino main office? Not reservations or advance cruises. Need casino info on my past cruises and supposedly they have it. The reservation contact said you can't talk to them, only email. I can't believe that they don't have a phone number you can call. Any help is appreciated.

We were charged 14.59 per person per day for the yacht club in Jan. Same as reported above

Thanks for theinfo. That is my new plan.

I was thinking of buying the electronic luggage finders that you track on your phone. Has anyone tried these?

Thanks for the info, can't wait to see him again.

Does Ram also have suites 19039 and 19041 as his responsibility? We have those cabins on the Dec 2 cruise.

The ship model is really heavy. I won one in a raffle of everyone who made a purchase in the shop given away on the last day. I had to put it in my carryon luggage. You should have seen the xray people as I went through the check in process for my flight. They thought it was a bomb in my carryon luggage. when they saw what it was they also smiled.

There is a long boarding ramp that goes back and forth. Get a wheelchair to get on the ship if you have a mobility problem.

Cas is all I use. If I win anything on the slots I get a ticket when I cash out and take it to the cashier for cash. On the tables buy in with cash and if there any winnings back to the cashier for cash.

A brand new robe costs $60.

This question came up a couple of years ago and the best answer I read was, the butler will do whatever is not illegal or immoral.

In January I paid $64 for 3 people and 5 bags from the pe=ier to airport in Miami. Next time we will Uber or Lyft/

Yeah I want to know his name also as I will ask for another butler if I ever have him on my next cruise 2 Dec What deck are ou on?

I don't know if there is a list or not as I just ask the junior butler for whatever I want. If it is a reasonable request he or she will get it for you. No JD blue though.

In April we started looking for a Western Caribbean cruise on the Seascape in the YC. We needed two rooms, one single and one double. The TA looked at every cruise from early September until she found one that would accept a single. She found Dec 2 would let her book a single so we booked it. The difference in price for the single was $156 less than the room for two people. The rooms are side by side on the 19th deck. My military discount helped lower the price. Don't think at this price I will book another single on MSC.

Have done 10 YC cruises and just wondered if you had anyone that stood out who would still be there in Dec. Maybe after one of youf next cruises on the Seascape. We had great people in lateJ an but can only hope they would come back/

Wonder on here how many know what a ball peen hammer is? Could you recommend a waiter and assistant that would really spoil my granddaugter on her first cruise in December, She is 26 and I really want her first cruise to be special.

You meet in the top sail lounge and you are escorted to the excursion meeting point. On one excursion the butler escorted us to the tour bus.
