Seaniemac7 Posted January 11, 2017 #1 Share Posted January 11, 2017 Hi, Just wondering if anyone else has had any trouble pre-booking an internet package for an MSC Cruise? When I open their website, using my reservation number, there is no option to pre-book. This morning I rang MSC and was told that as I had booked the cruise through a travel agent , I would have to book the internet package through the agent also. When I contacted my T/A about it she came back sometime later and said that MSC had told her that Internet Packages could only be booked online 21 days, at least, before the sailing. I cannot find it anywhere on the site where it says that it has to be booked at least 21 days before the cruise. It doesn`t make any sense. I was able to pre-book two excursions and two meals, on their website, but no internet. I know it`s not the end of the world but it`s hard to fathom. Any thoughts?

chinita415 Posted January 11, 2017 #2 Share Posted January 11, 2017 (edited) I booked all my stuff including internet except for the 18 drink vouchers last week within the 21 days window. You are not getting anything in the "Enhance your cruise" option? You are leaving soon too. Did you get your eDocs? I think mine came about 3 weeks before sail date. Edited... Hmm I see you were able to book other things. I would call MSC again. I was able to buy the 18 drinks vouchers on the phone directly with them and I booked with an online travel agent.

Seaniemac7 Posted January 11, 2017 Author #3 Share Posted January 11, 2017 Hi chinita415, my eDocs are to be picked up tomorrow from the travel agent but I think I`ll give MSC a call in the morning and maybe another operator may be able to help me out. As I said, it`s not the end of the world but it`s hard to figure out their policy. Thanks for your reply and have a Great Trip..:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chinita415 Posted January 12, 2017 #4 Share Posted January 12, 2017 Hmmm what's the point of eDoc if you have to pick them up in person? My online travel agent emails them to me. Interestingly so does the MSC website right after I checked in online. And they sent 3 copies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seaniemac7 Posted January 12, 2017 Author #5 Share Posted January 12, 2017 My Travel Agent is only two minutes from my house so she said she`d print off all my stuff and sort everything out as it is our first ever cruise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maddy_o Posted January 12, 2017 #6 Share Posted January 12, 2017 I couldn't find any option either to pre book my internet package on the website, I wonder are there different variations of the website for different regions? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seaniemac7 Posted January 12, 2017 Author #7 Share Posted January 12, 2017 I think you could be right maddy. It says on the website that there is 20% off the price by booking online, but if we in Ireland cannot book online what good is it? I`ll explain my case when I get on board and see what happens. They`ll probably plead ignorance....:rolleyes: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bassbandit Posted January 18, 2017 #8 Share Posted January 18, 2017 Hi, You should be able, once signed in to your cruise, to be able to customize it. Once this is selected the option for an internet package should be available. Phil Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maddy_o Posted January 18, 2017 #9 Share Posted January 18, 2017 There is no option for me to do it, I received my e docs today and copied the link regarding booking it but it came up unfound.

Pre ordering gives you more MB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RC Dancers Posted January 19, 2017 #11 Share Posted January 19, 2017 We were unable to print our e-docs due to booking our amenities later. The website said that we had an unpaid balance. We had to give the porter our cabin number to get our bags checked in and security needed to use their passenger list to get us into the terminal. Otherwise, there was no difference to having the e-docs. We had the social internet package. Many people had problems getting their devices online and there was no one in the Cyber Cafe to help. It seemed like about half of the people in the guest services line for the first couple of days were there to get their devices on line. Once you were online, only the original device would work. We could view Facebook posts, but we weren't able to upload any pictures due to lack of bandwidth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chinita415 Posted January 19, 2017 #12 Share Posted January 19, 2017 Yeah... the sign in page did not pop up automatically. Guest service had to manually type in the web address for me. Then you just save it for future log on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
