Question about Seaside Yacht Club privileges...

[Lovetocruise2002]

For Seaside Yacht Club guests:

 

Does this line also include bottled water?

"Unlimited drinks in all MSC Yacht Club venues or from your mini-bar"

 

Does this line mean that you get complimentary beverages in all bars and restaurants onboard or do you choose from a limited yacht club menu??

"Complimentary beverage selection in all onboard bars and restaurants according to drink selections available in the different venues"

Is this a day pass for the thermal suite or valid for the whole duration of the cruise?

"Free Thermal Suite and priority lift access to the MSC Aurea Spa"

 

And last question that I cannot find the answer to anywhere...do yacht club guests have priority/reserved seating at shows?

Thanks in advance!

Yes, bottled water is included.

Yes, drinks are free everywhere, although you have to show your card when outside of YC. The charge will be zero. Includes gelato and coffees!

The thermal suite is for the whole trip. No direct elevator on Seaside. It is on the other ships as spa/gym is one deck below YC on them. On Seaside spa is down on main public decks.

I presume the have priority reserved seating on Seaside. They do on the other ships. They treat their YC guests well. That is why we are on Seaside YC in February after two great YC stays on Divina last year. Loved it!

Can anyone tell me what site lists the benefits for the yacht club. I was reading benefits on one of the sites about the spa and the only thing listed was private elevator to spa providing access to spa which I saw is not available on the seaside. I called MSC reservations to question whether thermal spa is free. The agent put me on hold to check with benefit person who said it is not free for the yacht club but could be purchased. I was happy to read about the thermal spa being included but can't find where the official listing is on their sites.

I posted the list above that is directly from their site. It says you get access to the Thermal Area included? And I believe you can use your seapass to give priority access to the elevators...

I got it directly from the MSC page:

https://www.msccruisesusa.com/en-us/Discover-MSC/MSC-Yacht-Club.aspx

On the page there is a link that says "Yacht Club privileges". Click on that.

Thank you for the info on yacht club privileges and where to find it. Wish the MSC agents were more educated on the benefits offered. Seems like when you call you get different information depending on who you speak to but this is not exclusive to MSC.

[RoLoHa]

It’s not just MSC...I find that there are disconnects on most of the cruise lines as far as the nuance of special programs and what is /is not included. Sometimes even basic information is lacking.

This problem is definitely not exclusive to MSC. I sail mainly RCI and their agents are all over the place with differing info as well.
