missalexandra Posted October 23, 2021 #1 Share Posted October 23, 2021 I am booked in December and would like to hear from anyone with recent experience about how reliable the internet is. Can I count on working for a couple of hours in the morning on some days or will that plan get me fired from my gig? My second question is which liquors are under the $9 limit for the "easy plus" package. Thank you in advance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phissy Posted October 23, 2021 #2 Share Posted October 23, 2021 We have not sailed yet so cannot report on internet. can answer Drink Question. Go to MSC site, click On Board, then click on Drinks and this page has Drink comparison charts for all packages. Click on Drink Comparison Chart. Scroll down to Winter 2021 Caribbean Easy Plus. 3 pages with complete list. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
murph1031 Posted October 23, 2021 #3 Share Posted October 23, 2021 I looking to book in Feb. Does anyone know what the daily price of the drink packages are? The website doesn't show any prices. I understand it varies by date of sailing, but anyone have an idea of price range? We will likely want the deluxe package, because I don't want to be limited on the frozen drinks we can order.

No issues with email, text or even FaceTime. I also tested MS Teams and a Zoom call, again no issues. I did not do video on Zoom or Teams but I was able to do an hour meeting without any problems. There are plenty of menus that show what’s included in the $9 easy plus package. If you check MSC’s site there is a spreadsheet that shows exactly what is covered in the easy plus package. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which internet package did you get? The cheaper one or the stream one? I'm thinking about bringing my fire stick and watching it to the television and watch Netflix Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaroleC Posted October 24, 2021 #8 Share Posted October 24, 2021 Does anyone know if Asti sparkling wine is included in the Easy Plus drinks package? The website states the package includes drinks up to €8/$9 but I’ve no idea how much a glass of Asti costs on board. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is exactly what I needed to know. Internet came with the deal I got and if I can count on it I won't have to take the week off from the gig that's portable.

HallOfPromise Posted November 17, 2021 #10 Share Posted November 17, 2021 Sorry to bring up an older thread. My package came with EasyPlus drink package as well as 2 device Browse internet. I see I can upgrade my drink package for $20 per adult/per day (which I plan on doing), but can I upgrade the internet package to the Browse & Stream without having to pay for the entire package? I plan on relaxing while streaming music to my earbuds and I read the Browse does not allow streaming music. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cheeseheads4ever Posted November 27, 2021 #11 Share Posted November 27, 2021 Hello Everyone! Maybe not the place to ask but will try anyway. What are the odds that on my January 20th cruise they will be playing the NFL Playoffs somewhere on the ship? I understand this is an Italian cruise line but… we Americans love football. Can I go in to a bar and ask if they could play the game? Sports bar maybe? Also regarding drink packages we have easy plus.. if we upgrade would we go to Premium plus? I think MSC restructured their drink packages? Eliminating premium. Am I correct on this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They had it in sports club on Meraviglia (deck7) after dinner , watched last game in our cabin on ESPN channel. Drink pkg upgrade is Premium Extra. Plus has been eliminated.

Can't say it was every game but they also had MNF. Think it was whatever was on ESPN and/or espn2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
