We have always enjoyed the zip lines on the Allure, I read a recent post indicating that there is now a charge for the zip line.

Is that correct?

Thanks

Reduce your alcohol intake....a Long Island ice tea has 780 calories...that's a lot of trips around the jogging track

With the loyalty match, what level would I have with MSC and what are the perks?

Thanks

Downloaded app from the App Store, entered my info and booking number, app tells me I don't exist.Oh well, my cats still like me

call MSC, we booked directly with them and were told of an additional 10% discount we were entitled to, and help in selecting a preferred cabin.

Just booked the Seaside and cruise planner mentioned that MSC ususally has theme nights such as a white night and Italian night and more.

Is anyone familiar with these and what happens that night?

thanks

Got a great price on the Feb 3rd sailing on the Seaside.

By asking, i was told i was eligible for a 10% discount for government service ( firefighter).

Also received a $50 OBC. wifi and the dinner drink package.

We had shopped our previous cruiselines, NCL, RCL and Princess and their prices had gone thru the roof.

Excited to sail on this new ship and we get loyalty matching.

Booking our first MSC cruise and I read that the formal night is dark suits or tuxedos for men.

Is this the norm?...or can you wear a sport coat, slacks and a tie?

Thanks

Considering a MSC cruise, like other cruise lines, can you order more than one appetizer in the no surcharge MDR and is the pizza complimentary?

Thanks

Do the ships feature an adult only pool area?

Thanks

Thanks for the prompt reply

I'm a little confused...on MSC ships, are there dining rooms where you can eat without a fee?

Somewhere I saw that all MSC options were ala carte, I hoped that referred only to the specialty restaurants.

Thanks

I have sunbathed topless in all the public areas...till my wife told me to cover up, I was getting burnt

Overloading a plate with bacon and leaving it uneaten.

Anyone off the Allure recently, do they offer Zumba or other high energy fitness programs?

Thanks

Anybody back from the Allure recently?...what kind of music is being played?

Is it a live band and can you dance?

Thanks

The dancers came on at 7:00, arrive early and request a table near the floor, otherwise you won't see much sitting in the back or sides

open...but CAUTION...have cruised several times on the Allure and Oasis and have witnessed several violent falls on the Flowrider.

Just google Flowrider injuries and be aware

In the summertime....by Mungojerry

$3 pp shuttle ride to beach,,went to the Krazy Lobster, free beach loungers and umbrella, also had hammocks and tables and chairs available along with free kayakshad order of guacamole and chips, chicken fajitas and grilled fish for lunch, along with 4 free small margaritas total bill $24 plus nice tip for our waiter Leo

We just got off the Getaway and totally enjoyed the Glow Party.It's not for everyone though, and as far as I know, it's not mandatory like the muster drill, the room stewards will not be knocking on your cabin door to determine if you are hiding under the bed

Just back from Harvest Caye...loved it

clean life guarded beach probably 1500 lounge chairs

extremely clean and safe

shopping area with restaurants, bars and small wildlife exhibits

you can zip line, kayak, paddle board and more on the caye...all for a fee

fabulous extremely large pool with swim up bars

native made crafts for sale

short five minute walk from ship or shuttle is available

NCL tours depart from Harvest Caye, otherwise it is not possible to get off the Caye

Great value for $30pp we were taken from the dock in a 9 person air conditioned mini bus.

We had a informative tour of the island with stop at a rural straw market and scenic overlook.

Then on to Victor's Monkey Business, we got to enter the cage with the monkeys, interact with them, then with the macaws and parrots, saw some other animals..got some great photos.

Then we were taken to West Bay Beach for 31/2 hours at this beautiful location.

Our guide and driver Lionel was awesome and this was a fun day

Highly recommended

we had not booked anything for Cozumel and when we walked off we stopped by a kiosk and got a day pass for $16pp to Playa Uvas.

Cab ride over was $14 and the day pass only included lounge chairs and two very small Margaritas.

The beach itself was very rocky, a few sandbags has been laid down to assist guests to get in and out of the ocean, I noticed several people slipping and falling on the rocks, we decided it wasn't worth the risk and passed on getting in.

My fault, I should have done some more research, next trip, we'll just take an excursion that leaves from the pier

we saw the Latin Express at least four nights, you don't need reservations!

you can look in your daily paper and they will list that night's entertainment schedule and we would show up at the Tropicana, ask for a table and never had to wait more than 3 minutes to be seated

If you would like to have a table around the dance floor to see the show and or dance you probably should get their by 6:00

The Latin Express will also play in the Atrium and at the Latin dance party at Spice h20
