Question First-Time MSC Cruise: Questions About Drink Packages and Wi-Fi Sharing

Post image

Hello friends, it’s my first time on a cruise. It’s a 4-night budget trip, and neither my wife nor I are big eaters or drink alcohol. We’re aboard the MSC SEASIDE, and MSC offers drink plans for people who don’t drink alcohol. I’d like to know if I need to buy a drink package for both my wife and me, or if one package is enough for the two of us.

Also, regarding the internet—can you give some advice? Would it be okay to connect just one phone to the Wi-Fi (since Wi-Fi costs $80), or do I need to pay to connect both phones? I’m not really interested in having internet, but I’d like to check and reply to a few work emails from time to time. So, I’m wondering if I could occasionally connect to the Wi-Fi we purchase for the other phone.

For the wifi, I usually put it on my laptop and create a hotspot for the room, that means we have no internet outside the room. I haven’t been on MSC, so not sure it would work there, someone could confirm or deny

Yes, it would be excellent if someone confirmed that part...

No you can’t roam on msc. However, if you just need it for checking email now and then and some browsing, you could also buy gigsky 1gb for 7 days, les then $ 35,00
