It is for those celebrating their birthday on the ship. I received one on my birthday last year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Ryan82 Posted March 2, 2023 #3 Share Posted March 2, 2023 Do you have to ask for it / order it at guest services or does it arrive automatically? Its partners birthday on our June cruise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Ryan82 Posted March 2, 2023 #5 Share Posted March 2, 2023 Thanks @ready2cruzagain - I did email MSC not long after booking cruise but they said it was too early to tell them. I'll be sure to mention it onboard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Markanddonna Posted March 2, 2023 #7 Share Posted March 2, 2023 We made arrangements for customer service and chose the flavor, icing, etc. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mojobaby7 Posted August 1 #8 Share Posted August 1 I was curious about this also it says it’s a perk of the gold voyagers club, and it’s my wife’s birthday didn’t know if I had to order it which says $16 and then they would take it off or credit me or they just send it automatically? Thanks for any updates on those who have experience with this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We did not purchase it, I just told CS when I booked and reminded our waiter and they brought us the cake. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're automatically eligible if sailing on your birthday. Just confirm with guest service when you'd like it to be delivered. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The VC info states celebrating your birthday during the sailing so, I'd guess not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you know or does anyone know if you're disembarking on your birthday if you would be able to get it the night before? I would have done my birthday but it was a 4 day and would have had to book 2 cruises which came out about 15% more than booking the 7 day the week before where I get off on my birthday.

Rare Cruzinforpeace*** Posted August 21 #14 Share Posted August 21 My favorite part of the cake is the song! My Birthday was the week before the cruise. I celebrate all month! Just tell your waiter or the head waiter you’d like your Birthday cake (and song). Usually it’s best not to ask for the first or last night of the cruise.

I'm 99% sure if you arrange for it they will bring you one, but I agree that trying to do this same day, last day will not work out well! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just tell your waiter one night in the middle of the cruise that you're celebrating your birthday the next night. Then remind them the at the beginning of dinner the night you want to celebrate. I doubt your waiter would card you🤣 They won't know that it isn't your exact birthday! YMMV. . but it's worked for me every time I've wanted to celebrate a special event on a cruise (birthday, anniversary, great hair day, etc) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
