MSC Collaborates with Ben and David!!-UPDATE
I highly recommend getting a Solis Global Hotspot (4G or 5G). Keep your phone in airplane mode on the ship and at the ports. Use your WiFi hotspot at each port, and even in your balcony cabin when the ship is docked. The hotspot will access nearby cell towers. No need to buy SIM cards. It works in 135 countries! Their data is cheap and it doesn't expire. They often put their unlimited use Day Passes on sale for as low as $3.60 per day! Good topic, because a lot of folks forget to put their phones in airplane mode during their cruise.
Amazing how you have to explain this so often because certain challenged individuals think they know more.
I do also think there are people who don't understand how cell service VS wifi works etc. You are not wrong though. :)
Every cruise line web page and app should have a section that says this: "Talk to your cell phone provider before you go on any cruise or travel internationally to see what your plan covers and does not cover. You could incur significant charges for using your cell phone outside of your home country." It really isn't hard to figure out but you do have to take some personal responsibility.
You are right!
If you are on a cruise you should want to get away from real life and the constant reminders of the daily life back home! Staying in touch is one thing, but I have seen people on their phone at all times while cruising.
I try to stay off daily life things but I do film with my phone a lot. I do think a lot of people are mobile workers and therefore must work but they get to go on many more cruises this way. Still beats being in the office in my opinion.
Even my cat knows to switch to airplane mode.
Hopefully most people do too but hoping I can save someone from making this mistake. What a huge bill for no reason.
They didn't turn on airplane mode --
No Guess they did not.
I love watching your cruise videos! I would love to take Ken and girls on one!
Thank you! It is a great way to vacation. Looking really good with all the snow here right now.
I went to the Liberty of the seas of the cruise it was fun
Glad you enjoyed it. I had so much fun too.
There is always someone trying to make a buck illegally or by scamming tourists
Isn't that the truth! Thanks for watching
Hi I subscribed
Thank you Welcome to the channel!
How much was the train ride
It was $15 USD per person.
Hi there, Thanks for the video, we are looking to do this in January :) Can you say if the piped-in music is everywhere on this ship? I ask because we know P&O is pretty acceptable and they will turn it down if it's a bit much, but companies like Princess have a company policy of music in EVERY public area (including the corridors back to your cabin) which we got so wound up with. We have not yet cruised with MSC so are very interested in the ambience in public places. Any thoughts? Thanks, Tim :)
Music is only where you would expect it. Bars and during shows and parties etc. I found the ambience to be very nice on this ship. Thanks for watching.
@@tracymayertravel Thanks for replying, really helpful :)
Thank you! I have been trying to figure out if I need to prebook Uber weeks in advance?
I didn't and didn't have to wait more than 10 minutes. It is a bit hectic getting off the cruise since so many people are trying to get rides. I would not prebook since you can't predict what time you will be off. I got an Uber right away just took a few minutes with the traffic getting to the port.
@ thank you for that info. I really do appreciate it. And I sure hope that place you stayed took down that very misleading sign. That is terrible.
the ignorance is bliss
yo this is too funny
Oh wow!! Thank you so much for this information.
There is a manual call point for the system inside of the bar and they’ve press it my mistake for sure. Same thing happened on Harmony after Covid one day before starting cruising 😂
Thanks for the information.
@@tracymayertravelthere is no manual call point to release that system. It is only activated by the smoke detectors. The manual call points only sound the alarm, not activate the sprinklers.
We were supposed to be getting on on the 14th now we will be getting of on the 17th November if nothing else happens
I hope it all works out for you.
Wife and I were to board the Explorer on 11/14 . yet to hear from RCL about what they are going to do but I'm sure they are on top of it. I did hear they are expected back in Miami on the 17th.
I am sure you will hear something soon once they get everything finalized in the next days. I am sorry about your cruise.
@@tracymayertravel TY, I'm sure it will work out.
Ship is fine. Most everyone is in good spirits
Glad to hear that!
I was on the ship and the promenade, we talked to someone the next morning and was told the wrong fire system was taken out of service, to support the fog machine.
That's interesting! Thank you for the information!
@@tracymayertravelthis story checks out with how it works. When they know there will be pyrotechnics or fog machines in a show they can “deactivate” the detection system and prevent this from happening.
did they flood the promenade? the sprinklers on a cruise ship are very specifically designed to suppress fire without causing flooding. kind of a big deal on a ship.
Yes, everything was flooded, teams were pushing water for hours, they closed many of the surrounding stores and routed people away. We just sat at the bar and watched.
That would have been fun to watch.
I was on Symphony 2 months ago and the sprinklers went off in my cabin and others on the same floor. Guest services did not care and offered insulting compensation. In June we were on Liberty of the seas and the cabin sink did not work nor did the tv. Also no compensation was given. After 14 cruises with Royal, it's time for a new cruise line for me. Food quality is also getting worse as well.
Sorry to hear about your issues!
I just got off Virgin Voyages and it was amazing. I'm switching my loyalty.
I smell exaggeration. Those sprinklers in your cabin would never go off unless they were mechanically broken by you, or if there was a fire to make it hot enough to activate. Sabotage to get an upgrade?
A cruise to remember 😂.
Absolutely!
What? All the things you say are good on MSC I experience on Carnival.
I was not saying that MSC was the only cruise line with these things just that I enjoyed MSC and was not in agreement with the negative reviews I see all the time. Glad you like to cruise too.
We are moving to Spain from the U.S. and will be aboard the MSC Magnifica on a repositioning cruise beginning November 8, 2024, from Miami to Alicante Spain, arriving November 26th. We aren't much for cruising as a way to spend a vacation, but this is the perfect situation for us, a one-way journey to Europe! We might be the kind of people that you described as wanting to explore different cultures and languages, hence our move to Europe. Thanks for sharing!
What a great way to travel to your new home. I am sure you are the type of people who will enjoy MSC. I hope you love living in Spain. That is exciting! Thanks for watching.
GOOD VIDEO: Hotel employees often push shuttles and private cars as they get a kickback. Uber/Lyft is VERY OFTEN the best choice for Ft Lauderdale and Miami ports as they will pick you up at your cruise hotel (or airport) and drop you at the ship very quickly. Taxis very nice, too, but since you don't know the price UP FRONT it makes me choose Uber/Lyft instead. I will say that in Ft Lauderdale I have had Uber drivers that both had VERY limited English and were NOT good drivers. The limited English didn't matter as Uber tells them where to go but the BAD DRIVERS were pure hell...speeding and weaving in traffic scaring the heck out of us. On the way back from the cruise to the FT Laud airport we got a taxi. Nice older gentleman with a really old car. I chose him because I figured if he was willing to still be a taxi driver and that car was still running he must really need the business. So many people were bypassing the older fella/car. But FYI the taxi was not expensive and you get to the airport very quickly. FYI - we stayed at the Embassy Suites on 17th with free breakfast. Very nice and a walk to the Disney and Princess ports ONLY. You CANNOT walk to the other ports like Celebrity or Royal.
Uber is fantastic for going to the cruise ports in Miami or Fort Lauderdale. Be aware that you'll be lucky to get a driver who speaks English, however.
Google Translate is what I used last time in Miami in this case. Really the last 4 trips I have only had one person who truly didn't speak English.
All my experiences with MSC were disappointing. If you want a real fun cruise with lots of activities, make sure to do Royal Caribbean
I had a great time on MSC. Iceland,Germany and Scotland. It was amazing. I do like Royal.
Everything in the shops on a cruise ship is ridiculously priced. A single dose of Tylenol is like $4.00. bring meds and snacks from home or wait for the first port and find a grocery store. Unless it's a souvenir don't buy anything on board.
They have deals sometimes but I agree usually very pricey.
This is straight Bullshit
Did your room come with a blowdryer?
Yes! It was in the desk drawer. I forgot to show that. :)
Yay
They are alive
They cancelled my trip two years ago in the Pre Sales. I buy the flight tickets directly from Royal, and Refreshment package. I am Diamond, paid restaurant Chops Grilled, Coco Cay adult pool, Travel Protection, Gratuities, and Bus from Royal. I have the cabin 14756 aft
Sorry about your CX Trip. Sounds like you sail with them often. I love an aft cabin. Thanks for the comment.
It is so cute 🥰!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
So beautiful to watch.
It was amazing. Glad you enjoyed it
I went on that same exact cruse
Great Ship
Man, I remember going there
They should have fired the manager
i literally going this monday
Aweee
They are flamingos❤❤❤❤😊😊😊😊😊
Where are their parents????
Do you believe this
Beefing with the Air Force Museum is wild lol
Sure
Gemini?
If I remember correctly yes. They have some very interesting things.
You should name the hotel specifically. The public deserves to know the dishonest business . Thanks
I did the name is at the 23 sec mark of the video. Thanks for watching and the comment.
I just got off a cruise, and my cruise in Oct can't come fast enough 😊!
Totally agree, I have one in August that I can't wait for.
