RosieRoo Posted November 4, 2016 #101 Share Posted November 4, 2016 All depends on who you know. And tipping the staff does wonders We had the same experience. I got the impression there weren't many tippers so those of us who did tip were treated very well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here in Jupiter they'd be insulted.. Lol Sent from my N9518 using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jasmiarowski Posted November 4, 2016 #103 Share Posted November 4, 2016 Starting in the summer of 2017 if you stay in the yacht club you can get free drinks thoughout the ship.Also on the new ships the yacht club resturant is up front in the yacht club Sent from my SM-G928T using Forums mobile app That is great news for the YC getting drinks elsewhere. Is this for only the Divina or the fleet? Do you know if they announced it on their website? I am sailing YC on Meraviglia in Nov 2017. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SnorkelBoy Posted November 4, 2016 #104 Share Posted November 4, 2016 I have seen mention that lobster is not served on formal nights unless you pay a surcharge. Do you know about that? Thanks. That is correct but I could not tell you how much it was. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jasmiarowski Posted November 4, 2016 #105 Share Posted November 4, 2016 That is correct but I could not tell you how much it was. The lobster is any night at 19.95 and surf and turf is 23.95..But the good news is the sports bar menu is now free. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lovelights Posted November 5, 2016 Author #107 Share Posted November 5, 2016 (edited) My list for the YC is very similar to yours lovelights. I didn't have a list for the YC. Matter of fact, this was my first cruise on MSC and I don't know anything about the YC. I think it was Max49 that you're referring to.

lovelights Posted November 5, 2016 Author #108 Share Posted November 5, 2016 I was on the same cruise. Our boarding docs said our check-in was for 2:00pm. Mine said the same thing, but we couldn't control what time we got there, for we took a charter bus. Usually the bus doesn't get you into Miami until about 12:30pm, but for some reason, they moved the schedule up on the buses and we had to be at the bus stop before 6:45am.

CTBob Posted November 6, 2016 #110 Share Posted November 6, 2016 Hi Lovelights, thanks for your review. Takes me back to my two weeks on the Divina a couple of years ago. I also had a bad experience on the free trolley in San Juan. Took twenty minutes to go two blocks so we got off and walked. We loved the Divina and are booked in the Yacht Club on the Seaside in January of 2018. Can't wait. Bob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bob We want our next cruise to be on Seaside, but I'm waiting to know for sure when the new private island will be open. I don't think you can book 2 years out anyways. Since Seaside is taking over Divina's old itinerary, I guess this time we'll pick the western itinerary and hopefully they'll be swapping out Nassau for their own private island.

It's now scheduled for October 2018, but we'll see. I hear time moves slower in the Bahamas. Edited November 6, 2016 by CTBob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lovelights Posted November 6, 2016 Author #113 Share Posted November 6, 2016 I decided to buy the 3D Cruise Ship puzzle when I was on Divina, and it came out way better than I ever expected it to. When we first seen this puzzle finished, my husband and I were looking through the Logo Store window on the ship, because the store hadn't opened yet, since we were docked in Miami for so long. So, here we are peeking through the windows and door, and I spotted this large cruise ship model (at least that's what I thought it was at the time). I asked my husband if he could see the price on it, but it was to far away to see the price, so I took a photo of it through the glass. My husband said "I think it's $132.00". I said "Well, I won't be buying it then." Later that night, while in our stateroom, I downloaded all the photos I had taken that day, onto my laptop. When I pulled up the photos of the ships that I took through the window at the Logo Store, I looked at my husband and said "OMG. It's only $11.90. It's a 3D puzzle!!!!" So, I bought it and brought it home, and put it together the other day. It has 85 pieces, and it's about 20 inches long, and it took me 3 hours to complete. I have it displayed in my craft room. However, I found a piece (#36) that I can't find where it goes, and I already threw the box away. (It's a narrow piece, about 1 in. long, and appears to have little windows on it) So, if anyone can tell me where #36 goes, I'd greatly appreciate it. LOL Here's a few photos of it.

We're booked for February 2018 and of course the island won't be ready for us, but we were mostly booking to be on a new ship...while it's really new! ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think we're going to book for November, in hopes they have the new island ready by then. We have to wait though, for booking to become available.
