shellyd1 Posted January 21 #1 Share Posted January 21 Could someone please share any benefits you received when you booked a future cruise on board recently? I will be sailing in March and am considering a June Northern Europe cruise. Wondering if it is worth waiting until I'm onboard to book. The risk of waiting is that the flight prices could increase dramatically. The Northern Europe cruise does not have Yacht club, so I would be looking at a solo balcony. Any ideas where to find prices for excursions prior to booking? I'm a bit nervous that the Northern Europe ports will be $$$. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark_T Posted January 21 #2 Share Posted January 21 Unless something has changed recently this is likely to be the current deal... You also get whatever is available by booking on the MSC web site. Regarding excursions, I've always found the MSC prices to be low compared to Celebrity for example. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare laudergayle Posted January 21 #3 Share Posted January 21 @Mark_T do you happen to know if you book onboard and pay a $398 deposit, does that count towards on-board spending for VC points? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So doesn't really seem like it's worth waiting for $100. Thanks for the info. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't believe so as it doesn't appear on your onboard account. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xcell Posted January 21 #6 Share Posted January 21 If your deposit is refundable (i.e. not YC), then you could always booked before and then wait to get on board to see what the price is like. The only difference I see, is lower deposit and more OBC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TVLady3 Posted January 22 #7 Share Posted January 22 I booked on board last year for my upcoming cruise this March. I received a lower deposit and $50 OBC for booking on the ship. Recently, I upgraded to the Yacht club and lost that 50. OBC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
