Boarding in Miami and other questions???

[travellink]

Does anyone know what time we can board the ship for the Jan 18,2014 sailing out of Miami? Any idea which terminal they will use? What time do we have to disembark upon returning? Also which restaurants are not free with fare and what are the prices? Can we bring wine, water or sodas onboard? Will the drink packages be offered for sailings out of Miami?

According to brochure ship departs at 7:00 pm

My guess is to be their before 6:00 pm

 

Returns to Miami at 7:00 am. After going through paper work, customs, etc., I would guess that disembarkation will start around 8:00 am

Hi travellink-

 

The ship leaves Miami at 7pm on January 18, 2014.

The ship will be docked at terminal F.

The ship arrives in port at 7am on January 25; therefore disembarkation will be begin as soon as customs and immigration allow, usually around 7:30am or so.

Manzo and Ristorante Italia will be an additional cost. Pricing is still being modified as the ship is being altered to include these restaurants and remove TexMex.

We do not allow food and beverages to be brought onboard.

Drink packages are being offered for sailings out of Miami. You can book via our website or with your travel agency. If you have questions about the package you are more than welcome to contact us directly.

 

Hope this helps!

Happy sailings!

On our 3 MSC cruises departing from Fort Lauderdale documents showed a boarding time of 3 pm. We were always on board by noon or so and in time for lunch. I would suspect that the same will apply at Miami.

 

Also, despite all documents saying that no beverages were allowed on board we brought some sodas for our cabin on all three MSC cruises and had no difficulty. In fact, we have done this on all our cruises not just MSC and would be frustrated if they stop this.
