Hi, I did look into this ship. It does look amazing, however the price is much higher than the Meraviglia. I get that it's a new ship but the cost for a balcony in the YC was more than what we paid for the duplex YC with the whirlpool on the balcony. Then we would still have to consider the cost of 3 flights and a hotel in Port. I hope you get a chance to go and enjoy your trip.

I would definitely like to sail out of Miami, but unfortunately our son doesn't fly. I'm hoping we can help him with his fear of flying. I would love to give World America next April. 🤞 But traveling with a Special needs adult isn't always easy.

I heard on the ship that the charge was only to get on the beach. If you wanted a chair that was an additional $25.00 , it also was the same price for an umbrella. 🫣

From what I understood, I think most of the beaches are changing a fee. Which I feel is ridiculous, we all suffered losses with the shutdown but now it is time to move on.

Actually I am looking into another YC , however I don't know when that will be.

I agree 100%, this was our 12th time to Bermuda. I learned about the charge before we left the ship so we decided to stay on board. With that said I can't help but wonder how is the money being spent? Or is the Bermuda Government doing this to keep the beaches from becoming over crowded?

I think the YC pool deck bar was just under staffed. I could have asked our Butler for the drinks, but like I mentioned there was no big rush.

We just returned from Bermuda, it has always been one of our favorite places to cruise to. It's been 2 years since we last visited. When did the beaches start to charge you a fee? Elbow beach was $25.00 a person plus if you wanted a chair or an umbrella they were each an additional $25.00. I understand that maybe a small fee would be in order but come on, $25.00 pp is a bit much.

I definitely prefer MSC YC. Like I mentioned the disembarkment was a huge disappointment. I would have thought the bar service could have been better, but that wasn't a big deal. No one ever died because they had to wait for a drink.😁 As far as the price difference NCL Haven was about $3,000.00 more for the same trip not including the mini bar, which basically had sodas, bottle waters (flat &sparkling) & juices which was restocked daily. MCS will also provide you with a bottle of your choice ( wine , champagne, vodka, rum or whisky. ) The ship was Immaculate I didn't need to break out my cleaning supplies..Which if you know me that's huge. The food in the YC was excellent a little different than what you would expect on NCL or Royal, but you can always ask for something that's not on the menu. The menu changes every day/night in the YC where in the Haven it stayed the same for the week. We will definitely do the YC again. I hope this helped you.

Yes, we did chat a while ago! When you travel in a NCL Haven, the Butler will assist you completely out of the terminal. That might be because I informed them of my son's special needs & we didn't do that this time on the YC. My husband didn't think it was necessary....he did say later on I should have made the request 🤦🏻‍♀️😵‍💫 men! The service was absolutely wonderful on the Meraviglia with the exception of the YC pool bar. But hay what the heck we had a week. We will absolutely do the YC again. Our friends also agreed.

👋 We just returned from our 1st MSC YC cruise. I can't say enough about the wonderful service we received. I was a little worried about the size of our room, seeing that there was only 1 bedroom & bathroom upstairs and a double size pull-out down stairs with an additional bathroom. We will definitely do another YC again. The only negative thing I have to say is the disembarkment of the way YC guests are left to fend for themselves. NCL Haven's guests are literally walked all the way off the ship.

Have you been to the Spa?!! I can't wait to do some serious spa time!!

My thoughts exactly, I guess we will wait to see what happens.
