300dtc Posted August 15, 2018 #1 Share Posted August 15, 2018 Has anyone used the status match from NCL to MSC? How did you prove your level since we don't have status cards? I guess we could use our last sail card, if they would accept that...anyone know what Platinum level on NCL transfers to on MSC? Thank you!

Linda the Book Lover Posted August 15, 2018 #2 Share Posted August 15, 2018 We just copied our Latitude status page from NCL online and sent to MSC. Platinum and up transfer over to MSC as Black. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Travelicious Posted August 15, 2018 #3 Share Posted August 15, 2018 How long did it take to get a response. I submitted my request last weekend, but don't have a booking yet if that makes any difference. Thought I would be proactive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bobg529 Posted August 15, 2018 #5 Share Posted August 15, 2018 They say allow 7 to 14 days. I sent a photo of my room card back in July and never got a response, but I had a lot of trouble with the web site, I think they're overloaded with requests. I called again this week and turns out that they want a screen shot of the Lattitudes status page, I guess since it shows the logo, your latitudes number status and name. A nice young lady on the phone asked me to hold while she attached it to my original app and made sure it got to the right department. She assured me everything would be good and asked that I allow them some time to process it. Two hours later I got my confirmation from Voyagers Club that I was now Black status and gave me my new number. I still love NCL but if I find a good deal I'll give them a try!

Rare Tapi Posted August 15, 2018 #7 Share Posted August 15, 2018 I sent a screenshot of the log in page showing my name, number, and status level. I had to send it twice, but after the second time, I got a response within hours. Loved all of the perks that came with the loyalty match. We are now booked on our second MSC cruise, partly because of the positive experience that we had on our first cruise with them!

Carolina Girl 99 Posted August 16, 2018 #9 Share Posted August 16, 2018 I received mine within 2 days after submitting the online request form. I just took a screenshot of my NCL latitudes profile page and attached it to the form Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dexddd Posted August 16, 2018 #10 Share Posted August 16, 2018 Used screenshot of NCL page. Time varies. Mine had to be submitted twice months apart but DW within a couple days. Best thing is 5% off fare. NCL doesn't offer that to any level. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tempus137 Posted August 16, 2018 #14 Share Posted August 16, 2018 I had applied for a match February 2017, when the Star was having all of its azipod problems. MSC was one of my options if the Star was cancelled, because they had a cruise on the same dates, leaving from the same port, so I wouldn't have to change my flights or hotels. When I submitted the form, I was still gold with NCL, so I am now Silver on MSC. I never booked a cruise with MSC, and I am now platinum. Can I ask MSC to change me to Black? DW never applied for a match with MSC, so would she get Black if she applied now? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DW never applied for a match with MSC, so would she get Black if she applied now? The status match can only be done once so you cannot get matched higher but your spouse can be matched to Black. You might get lucky (their IT dept. isn't the best) but it isn't likely that both of you will be Black. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cruslvr81 Posted September 22, 2018 #16 Share Posted September 22, 2018 Sadly to say I’m am also thinking about crushing with MSC for 2019 an I just submitted my request for a status match. My questions is did anyone book online after and was the 5% automatically taken off or do you have to call to book, I don’t use travel agents (I did make an account ) ?

delaware32 Posted September 22, 2018 #17 Share Posted September 22, 2018 I called and spoke to a representative . I asked about status match and the discount would be given once there was proof of black card . If you are former military , civil servant or educator you can receive a 10% discount per cabin once you upload proof to them . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cruslvr81 Posted September 23, 2018 #21 Share Posted September 23, 2018 Just fill out the form on their website and you hear back within hours. The only disappointing thing for me is we’ve traveled a few lines with NCL being the most but I’m only silver (45 points) and they put me in the first category which I expected, but they only gave me 1 point. :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

havanadaydreaming Posted September 23, 2018 #23 Share Posted September 23, 2018 my wife has sailed on a most a cruise lines. we logged in each line's website and printed documentation from each. MSC gave her Black, first time. it's pretty awesome I'd sail them again in as heartbeat, they just need more diverse itineries.
