MSC offer from Mohegan Sun

[Nhcris]

Going through the mail after our amazing Princess cruise from Grazie, imagine my surprise to find an offer from MoSun for a comped cruise on MSC. I know next to nothing about MSC, but being a complete cruise addict, I will be picking up this certificate next week. Anybody else get this and planning to go?

[CTslotters]

Welcome back, NHcris! We have the offer and reserved it but might cancel. I don't know anything about the line and have read mixed reviews; we are debating if it's worth it or not. Next Friday, right?
Anyone with info on MSC, please chime in!
If we do go, let's plan to meet up! :)

I booked a sleepover for the 6th at the Sun and the 7th at the Woods, so I am planning to be there & I will keep my fingers crossed that you guys come!

I am reading up on MSC and it sounds very different than we are accustomed to, but maybe that would make it more interesting? I am willing to sacrifice myself and do a thorough test although I am still basking in the glow of a perfect cruise so I am may be high :hypnotysed:

My family and I took a cruise on the MSC Divina out of Miami last July.We had a great time.We found the cruise to be a little more laid back then others we were on.The casino was small(no craps)but the food was fine and the shows were very good.There are plenty of lounges with some very good music.I think we stopped at 4 ports. MSC has many mixed reviews but we had no problems and will cruise on them again.

KenRI, thanks so much for the feedback! Glad to hear someone we know liked it! :) Hope all is well!

[Nhcris]

KenRI, that is great to hear! For the Caribbean we prefer something a little quieter than Carnival, but not quite as sleepy as Holland America, and it looks like we would choose the Divina so we don't have to fly halfway around the world. It sounds like it would be a good match for me.

The fact that the offer says it includes port fees and taxes makes it pretty irresistible!

[Cyndyga]

Wow that is a great offer if it includes taxes and fees and it's always nice to try a new cruise line!!! Have fun picking it up :)

[Slot Frenzy]

I received the offer too--haven't decided yet if I'm going.

Let us know if you decide to go and want to meet up! It would be fun :)

It sure would Chris but MoSu scares the crap out of me lol. Their slots are super tight and I have an AC trip planned 2 weeks after that but then again it's only Thursday who knows how I'll feel next week lol. I'll definitely keep you updated. :).

I completely agree, which is why I haven't been there since last July. But a free cruise will get me every time. Last time I went to Foxwoods (November) was to pick up a cruise. Somehow it softens the blow of all the losses! I hope you decide to go for it.

I'm not a cruise expert only been on one! What does MSC stand for?

So, I'm currently trapped in the airport in Raleigh waiting on a flight that was supposed to leave around 8 pm. :( I hate work travel! Really hoping I make it back to CT in time to pick up my damn cruise and see you both! They are cancelling flights left and right all evening (this was my rebooked flight after my original one was delayed earlier, that one eventually got cancelled also). Essentially, I'm in travel hell with a bunch of equally annoyed passengers.

Oh no! I was so hoping that things would turn around today for you. I am so sorry you are going through airport hell. I'm thinking good thoughts and hoping you get home soon and safely and that you can pick up your god damn cruise!

Really hoping I get to see you guys!

Uggh so sorry to hear Kathy--hopefully you are on a flight as I'm writing this--safe travels home. Not going to stress about making a decision by midnight--hopefully my host will waive the cancellation fee if I don't show up and if not, that's fine too.

I've checked into a La Quinta Inn near the airport and called Mohegan to cancel everything. :(. Flight home eventually got cancelled and they told me the earliest they could rebook me is Sunday. Sunday!?!? Wtf? Apparently, with all the wind and storms, a ton of flights cancelled everywhere and messed up everything. People are sleeping all over the airport. After being on hold with work travel agent, got last seat on an American flight through Philly tomorrow afternoon. Praying for no cancellation or delay. Most annoying part, if delta told everyone earlier the flight was cancelled (they said we were waiting on a crew to come in from another flight), I could have taken an 11:35pm out of here on Southwest. I officially Hate delta now, they are the worst and their agents suck!
Good luck ladies (if you go @slotfrenzy!)

Dang that sucks, I probably would have just rented a car and drove home by now lol. Hope it all works out and you get home safely

I would have rented a car and considered that option but don't think I could stay awake or concentrate on driving 11 hours on almost no sleep. If I get to philly today and can't get out of there, I'll either rent a car or hop on a train. Hopeful American Airlines has their shit together better than Delta.

A partner I work with a lot out of our Chicago office was here in NY this week. His flight was cancelled and they couldn't put him on one until Sunday. And that was a no-go. So he drove through the night back home to Chicago!

I hope you get home today!

Ugh! Seriously! I really feel like I'm missing out now. :( glad you were able to add to your cruise voucher collection, HHH!
I'm currently in Philly scheduled to depart at 9:15 so I will be home tonight! I'm bleary eyed and having back spasms. So many other delays, waits in line to take off but we had to leave gate, etc. If I could have seen the future, I would have driven from my initial place of Indiana but that gate agent said they didn't see any issues with my Raleigh connection (if I see him again, I'll stab him).
Happy slotting tonight!

OMG, this made me laugh so hard! I truly hope you are home sweet home now and getting some well deserved rest.

I actually left last night because the gambling was so bad. Foxwoods will not be pleased with my performance but then, I am not pleased with them.
Slot Frenzy, please telling us you are having some luck!

[CTslotters]

Sorry to hear about the awful slotting Nhcris. Hopefully you'll get to enjoy the cruise and turn bad slotting into a great vacation. I made it home and was in bed by 11pm. Still feel exhausted.
