Mikesa1721 Posted September 8, 2014 Author #526 Share Posted September 8, 2014 OMG we are 13 days from sailing and our roll call is DEAD....WTH.....I'm just chomping at the bit..............I don't get it........maybe it means the ship is empty and my inside guarantee will be a balcony:D or better yet a YC cabin..................hahahahahhhahahhahhhhahahhah I know that will NEVER happen. but as soon as I find out my cabin assignment I'll be so happy....it's kinda like playing the lotto.............going guarantee.........except that I at least get a room and not a ticket worth bloody nothing...........:eek: Haaaaa,,,Aussie,,,our roll call was kind of dead also. I really enjoy the planning part of the trip and talking with people who will be on the same sailing as us as well. Have you called MSC to see if they have assigned you a stateroom yet??? You might be on deck 5 for all you know??? I hope you get a balcony though,,an aft balcony would be like hitting the lottery!!!!:D:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aussiegrlfl Posted September 8, 2014 #527 Share Posted September 8, 2014 I haven't called, someone said if you go to the website and try to book an excursion it will show you what your cabin # is when it is assigned.........the space is still blank.....

Mikesa1721 Posted September 8, 2014 Author #528 Share Posted September 8, 2014 (edited) I haven't called, someone said if you go to the website and try to book an excursion it will show you what your cabin # is when it is assigned.........the space is still blank..... Uggghhhh!!!! So Aussie,,,I was looking at the 2016 Caribbean sailings and it looks like on some of the sailings, GSC is being replaced with Nassau and St. Maartin with St. Thomas. I liked GSC,,,don't care for Nassau,,but it's good in a way I guess. We don't get off the ship in Nassau so that day will be like a sea day in way.

riclop Posted September 9, 2014 #532 Share Posted September 9, 2014 Hi, Related to this, on my backstage tour of the Allure's Aquatheater, they said the divers in the show are REQUIRED to work out a certain number of hours per week, it is logged. I believe the same was true of the dancers. It could be the same on MSC. I was really referring to the people that work the MDR and buffet.

We'll be going to Nassau on our 3 day sailing in January,,,don't care about the port of call,,just want to be back on ship again!!! Really looking forward to Bermuda in April though!!! You better make that call Aussie while you still have time to make a move in case you're not happy with your accommodations!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GJ2 Posted September 9, 2014 #534 Share Posted September 9, 2014 C'mon Aussie!!! I can't afford to pay attention and definitely can't afford to shop at Saks Of Fifth Avenue at The Waterside Shops. They really do have great deals at the Ralph Lauren outlet store at Miromar plus I get their coupons e-mailed to me to save even more. I found some good deals at the Neiman Marcus outlet store as well. The Saks outlet never has anything good though!!! when you hit the outlets if your doing alot of shopping check out the customer service kiosk they have coupon books for sale . in sawgrass its 10 in orlando and in estero they where 5. but if you have a AAA card they give them free. another money saving tip !!!!!!

I didn't even see that it was a handicap stateroom. You should be fine there GJ2,,close to the same elevator Aussie would use at the aft of the ship. Very easy access to the Garden Pool, Black Crab Dining Room,,Galaxy Disco. It will be a little bit of a hike getting to the front of the ship where the Pantheon Theatre is though.:( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
