  1. Is there still a white tent set up at the pier for those in the Yacht Club? Just received a message from MSC saying at Terminal C Cabins located on decks 12 to 19 use the EAST entrance. Since I am on deck 19 in the YC I am confused as we always went to the white tent. Is this something new or just a message to everyone on boarding process?
  2. I will be on the seascape for two weeks so I am sure I can find him as I do a lot of reading on the top deck.
  3. Would you PM his name and I will take care of him also next week. Great report and very useful.
  4. All BTB people have to disembark, go through immigration or somebody then wait around for them to clear the ship so you can reenter. Since you are changing rooms and have the cruise docs to show it, I would go to customer service or sneak into the YC concierge and explain your situation. Someone will help you move. Good luck and enjoy your cruise.
  5. On the Seaside we were always able to put three or four suitcases under the bed.
  6. When I wanted the military discount about six years ago, my TA had to send a document verifying my military service. I don't remember if it was a copy of DD214 or retired ID card. I just booked and I think it was a 5% discount. I am also diamond status so I only get one discount. I suggest calling MSC direct, maybe the new concierge desk, and ask them what you need to do. Good luck.
  7. I have done this for years with good results but I am more concerned with after a weeks wear and the laundry package.
  8. Since I am doing another BTB I am bumping this up to see if there is any new info. Hope someone who has sailed lately and used the package will reply
  9. Maison Rose do you have any info on the laundry package? Interested in how it is done now as that used to be a real bargain.
  10. Maybe your credit card company doesn't charge the FTF.
  11. Make sure the credit card you have attached to your room does not have a foreign transaction fee. MSC generates credit card/cruise charges settlement costs from Italy.
  12. I did the railroad excursion a couple of years ago. Train to Panama City and bus back to Colon. Colon is a port city and not a tourist city. The train trip is very interesting as some of it runs alongside the canal.
  13. What a difference from then and now. The laundry package used to be a great deal. Always did BTB and had up to 40 items for both of us laundered, pressed and hung on hangars. Sounds like i could wash in the sink and dry on the deck and get better laundry than stuffed in a bag.
  14. We have used the discounts twice but we went through our travel agents and they took care of getting our discount. Weren't there instructions on the letter you were given that told you how to get the discount?
  15. Woww!!!!!! I thought I was a generous tipper but there is no way I would tip 3625 dollars pounds or euros for a cruise. There is a reason why we differ on tipping so I usually don't comment but this is ridiculous. Just my opinion.
