I just posted this on Mrs Soap thread, but thought it may be of interest Friends travelled to Sydney from UK to join a world cruise I think P&O, they were refused boarding as they had changed plane via Singapore. They were not very happy as the crew member (man) questioning them had no face mask was sat just across a desk and he admitted he was going back on the ship for the cruise. Therefore if they had any virus he was also very likely to get it--this was around 18/19th Feb.

I would hate to be in this position Friends travelled to Sydney from UK to join a world cruise I think P&O, they were refused boarding as they had changed plane via Singapore.

Hi we get insured if we use credit card to buy flights you could check if that applies to you. I would wait until final payt date to cancel anyway.

Just back from Bellissima and heard every morning around 7.15 and evenings around 6-6.30 in 18006

You need to post this on the Roll Call section under MSC Bellissima

Just done YC B2B on Bellissima and had to purchase internet, we had something called "wifi social" as a freebie and I was able to use Whatsapp on my phone with this but no internet access.

I see the same people putting a case for not paying and who they see at guest services. I am busy Enjoying myself on a cruise and don’t want to stand obviously for hours to observe anyone removing or reducing gratuities.

Sorry to make this point but friends only got Gold Member when joining Voyager Club even with Elite Plus on Celebrity. Diamond is not guaranteed

We are on Bellissima at the moment and being told they do not have a definite answer yet, so they are very much in the dark

Why would you refuse, it’s like having Norovirus and refusing to stay in your room just go and spread it around. I believe it’s a matter of trust, but security can monitor the hallways as there are cameras

Totally agree we have done 5 YC in 14 months and hav e another booked for 2021, I suspect the OP is looking for deals as well as itineraries

We belong to Virgin Atlantic airline as well as cruise lines loyalty “clubs” and Virgin miles disappear if not used within 3 years . I accept this as part of the loyalty scheme as I also do with MSC. The OP stated originally the itineraries were not suitable and couldn’t do Europe there is South America on your side of the pond.

If I can chip in here DSC (daily service charge ) are the gratuities on MSC and have been include for us on bookings made since June 2019 as Ate said. Liz

Also slightly cheaper to buy before your cruise

We bought 2.5 GB for a week and it shows usage when you log in/out. For a 4 week cruise we bought a 6 GB package for 2 devices and it was enough. Allowing a daily usage works for us as we download Netflix films before leaving home Liz
