I usually cruise on Princess, I will be traveling as a solo on MSC for the first time January 19 on the Divina leaving from Miami for a 10 day to the Caribbean. Does MSC have a shuttle to and from the pier as Princess does?

Can anyone recommend a hotel in Miami that is close to the pier or airport? They web cite is not very helpful an seems to have a lot of tech problems.

Thank you

We booked at the Inter Continental Miami close to the port and shopping.

Last resort is a cruise line shuttle, what airport are you arriving at?

i am flying into Miami on 1/18. When I do this with Princess I stay at a hotel near the airport and use their shuttle to go back to the airport and pick up the cruise line shuttle. Its great, my suitcase gets loaded on to the Princess bus and the next time I see it again is in my cabin. Dose MSC have a shuttle?

Thanks!

I know its too late for you now but we stayed at Hilton Downtown in mid December and it was excellent. Rates low at moment as being refurbished but did not impact on us apart from some mid afternoon building noise. Cab to dock was around $10 if I recall correctly. Hotel is a block from the free aerial tram to get around Miami - yes free amazingly to us from Europe
