MSC from NY

[rindybar]

Hi, I'm considering sailing out of NY on MSC. Just curious on everyone's thoughts, experiences and opinions.  We been on many NCL cruises in the past the last one being a year ago on the Joy in a 2 bedroom Family Haven. That was amazing, but the prices this year are way to high. When I saw MSC Yacht Club I was hoping for that same kind of individual attention. We travel with our special needs adult son and the ship in a ship works out extremely well for him.

@rindybar I think cruising MSC Yacht Club is a great way to get a little more space for yourselves and experience the ship within a ship cruise style! I have been really wanting to cruise with the yacht club experience but I haven't been able to save up enough for my entire family. I definitely think you should give it a try. You even get a 24-hour personal butler! MSC Seashore has the largest Yacht Club in its fleet, but MSC Meraviglia (currently homeported in NY) also has a grand Yacht Club. I say go for it! You get so much more privacy from a private pool to a price main dining area. Did NCL offer that sort of experience?

Last May we did travel in the NCL'S  Joy 2 Bedroom Haven. It was the most amazing experience that we could imagine. The entire trip we were catered to, however the price has almost doubled in the past year. 

When I saw that MSC had Yacht Club Suites I was intrigued,  we have never sailed with MSC . Maybe we will check it out.

@rindybar Almost doubling is a significant increase! I honestly have noticed increases across the board. I love reading about this positive experience you had in Norwegian Cruise Line's Joy 2 Bedroom Haven. I haven't heard of this caliber of cruising for NCL so I'm impressed by this. Lately, I have noticed so many cruisers being upset by NCL and the lack of customer service due to cutbacks. I truly think the type of treatment you would receive in MSC Yacht Club would give you the same if not a better experience. How does the cost for MSC Yacht Club compare to Norwegian Cruise Line's Joy 2-Bedroom Haven?
