cruiser5152 Posted February 22, 2016 #1 Share Posted February 22, 2016 Does anyone know if there is a water only package on MSC Davina? Sailing April 9th and MSC customer service agents are clueless.....can;t find any water package or pricelist online. Can we bring water onboard?

I have traveled this line several times. Don't know about a water package. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
63galaxie Posted February 23, 2016 #5 Share Posted February 23, 2016 (edited) I've recently read two posts where someone carried distilled water on on top of their carry on luggage (it was for their CPAP machine) and no one said anything, and another op poster carried canned soft drinks in their check on luggage, and it made it to their rooms. Also, if it's for medical purposes, MSC policy will allow it. Edited February 23, 2016 by 63galaxie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cruiser5152 Posted February 23, 2016 Author #6 Share Posted February 23, 2016 I don't drink alcohol or sodas so it would be pointless to buy one of the drink packages when all I want is water to keep in my cabin. I'm new to cruising but I do believe the other cruise lines do allow water to be carried on board or at least sell water only packages....Don't know why MSC Cruise line would not do the same. Do you or anyone else that has cruised with this cruise line know if water is sold on board the ship to keep inside the cabins?

Carnival Sensation Bahamas Cruise Nov.2015 Part of it is the price of drinks onboard. I'm scheduled for my first MSC cruise in May. In reading a lot about the line it seems that their prices for beverages are lower than most of the mass market lines. If one thing I've read is correct they do not serve tap water in the Main Dining Room (at least on European cruises) as others do. They sell bottles water. It's a European thing. When I lived in Germany water was never set on the table and if you asked for a glass it was considered rude. I'm sure that you'll be able to purchase bottles and take them back to the cabin if you want. Cost, I have no idea. I'm truly looking forward to a different type of cruising experience.

98Charlie Posted February 23, 2016 #9 Share Posted February 23, 2016 I checked the prepaid area for my Divina cruise in May. The only thing that mentioned mineral water (or any bottled water) was the MORE-FOR-LESS ESCAPE PASS with 18 coupons for $84. Charlie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was able to purchase the water package for my April 9, sailing to Bermuda, but not for my May sailing to the Caribbean. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
98Charlie Posted February 23, 2016 #11 Share Posted February 23, 2016 So 3 weeks after the first cruise where you can get the package you'll get back on the same ship and it's not available! Makes sense:rolleyes: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iron9er Posted February 24, 2016 #12 Share Posted February 24, 2016 Divina does give you free tap water at buffet's and MDR on US sailings. The 32 oz water bottle you could take with you. I believe the cost was 3.75 from the bar (excluding tip) and 4.25 from the mini bar in your room. If you have the More for Less package, you can use your tickets for water as well.

The MSC travel agent I worked with booking the cruise told me (In January)the mineral water package wasn't available on Caribbean sailings because he couldn't find any information either but checking the site yesterday under non alcoholic packages and this morning, the mineral water package is available to pre purchase so, for me that is the best option rather than buying individual bottles from the bar plus tips that are automatically included.

Hi I now see the mineral water package on the MSC site; that is the best option for me .....In January, there was no mineral water only package available and was told by two MSC representatives to include my travel planner, the water package wasn't offered on the Bermuda sailing so, happy to see the cruise line added it. Thanks for all the information updates on the different drink options from everyone... greatly appreciated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
