MSC Cruises Drink Packages & Prices (UPDATED)

 On a recent MSC Cruise, I booked an aft balcony with a special rate that included the “Easy Package”. I really had no idea what to expect since I never booked an MSC Cruise with a beverage package in the past.

Upon embarking, I was told by staff how the Easy Package didn’t include much and couldn’t be used at a specialty dining restaurant. With that information, I paid a nominal upgrade on the spot to the “Easy Plus” package to make sure I had more choices and that I could use the package while dining in every restaurant.

So is a drink package on MSC worth it? Let’s find out!

About the drink packages:

MSC Cruises offers a variety of drink packages for their cruises, including the “Easy” package, “Easy Plus” package, “Premium Extra” package, an Alcohol-Free package for minors, and a Minors package. The packages range in price and offerings, with the Easy Plus package allowing for more choices and access to specialty dining restaurants. Recent changes include gratuity now being included in the pricing. It’s important to understand what each package includes and excludes before making a decision.

Quick things to know:

• MSC Cruises offers various drink packages like the “Easy,” “Easy Plus,” “Premium Extra,” Alcohol-Free, and Minors package.
• Prices range from $19/day for the Minors package to $85/day for the Premium Extra package.
• The Easy Plus package offers more options and includes access to specialty dining restaurants for an additional cost (best value)
• Drink package prices include gratuity
• Drink packages CAN BE USED on Ocean Cay
• If your package doesn’t cover the drink cost, just pay the difference!
• The Mini bar in the cabin is not included in any package
• Everyone in the cabin needs to purchase the same drink package (excluding minors)

MSC Drink Package Prices

Depending on which you choose, you can get a package for as little as $19/day (Minors) – but the most popular package is the Easy Plus Package which starts at $61/day. The good news is that MSC Is running quite a few promotions that INCLUDE the Easy Plus Package ! Take a look at their promotions here.

What do the drink packages on MSC cruises cost?

We’ll be posting accurate European prices shortly, as they have also changed recently.

MSC Cruises Drink Packages Compared (NEW 2024 prices)

There are 5 drink package options that MSC Cruises offers on its ships including the “Easy” package, “Easy Plus” package, “Premium Extra” Package, and the Alcohol-Free Package (with a different price for minors and adults)

• See : MSC Cruises Bar & Drink Menus with Prices

Easy Drink Package

The “ Easy Package ” is the most basic alcoholic beverage package on MSC Cruises with a cost of $46 per day per adult and is sometimes offered at no charge as a promotion. (This package is $49 per day on short cruises of less than 6 nights and is even more expensive if purchased onboard)

Liquor choices that go into mixed drinks are generic and sometimes off-brand.

The upside to this beverage package is that it also includes bottled water, soft drinks & juices as well as espresso, coffee cappuccino, and other hot drinks (tea, hot chocolate, etc.) With many cruise lines when purchasing a drink package, they often exclude bottled water and coffee drinks. 

So if you are a heavy coffee drinker and enjoy bottled water with a few beers throughout the day, this is likely your good choice. 

This is the package that was included on my Meraviglia cruise with the base cruise fare. Initially, this seemed like a good option as it covers the basics, but some restrictions were inconvenient enough to make me upgrade to the Premium Plus.

An important exception to the Easy Package!

  You CANNOT use the Easy beverage package in any of the specialty restaurants . So if you want a gin & tonic at dinner, you’re out of luck. Even more bizarre, bringing a beverage to dinner is specifically prohibited forcing you to purchase any drinks regardless of price for the time you are in a specialty restaurant. 

MSC Easy Drink Package Menu & What’s Included

The Easy drink package entitles you to any beverage up to $7.50 ( sort of ). For your convenience, menus throughout the ships have a section specifying what’s included in the easy beverage package. However even though some beer prices by the bottle are $7.50 or less, those are EXCLUDED from this package. Strange, right?

For beer, with the Easy Drink Package, the only option is Heineken Draft or sometimes Miller Light, and the wines are off-label or inexpensive brands only marked as “chardonnay, Sauvignon Blanc, Zinfandel Rose, Cabernet, or Merlot (Plus a random label of sparkling wine or Prosecco). So if you’re not picky, this package may be sufficient. 

Martini | Gin or vodka, dry vermouth, olive or lemon peel Manhattan | Whisky, red vermouth, Angostura bitters Daiquiri | Rum, lime juice, sugar syrup Cosmopolitan | Vodka, triple sec, cranberry juice, lime Sidecar | Brandy, triple sec, lemon juice Screwdriver | Vodka, orange juice Margarita | Tequila, triple sec, sweet & sour mix, lime juice Moscow Mule | Vodka, lime, ginger beer Cape Cod | Vodka, cranberry juice Mimosa | Sparkling wine, orange juice Gin Fizz | Gin, lemon juice, sugar syrup, soda Pink Lady | Gin, lemon juice, grenadine Sea Breeze | Vodka, grapefruit juice, cranberry juice Caipiroska | Vodka, diced lime, sugar Blue Hawaiian | Rum, blue curaçao, pineapple juice, coconut cream Tequila Sunrise | Tequila, orange juice, grenadine Bloody Mary | Vodka, tomato juice, salt, pepper, tabasco, Worcestershire sauce Long Island Iced Tea | Vodka, rum, gin, tequila, triple sec, sweet & sour mix, cola Mojito | Rum, fresh mint, lime, sugar, soda Piña Colada | Rum, coconut cream, pineapple juice Strawberry Daiquiri | Rum, strawberry purée, sweet & sour mix

Alcohol-free cocktails included

Nojito | Lime, fresh mint leaves, sugar, Mojito mix, club soda Magic Island | Pineapple, orange and lemon juice, grenadine, Sprite Cuddle on the Beach | Peach purée, orange juice, cranberry juice Royal Punch | Passion fruit purée, pineapple juice, cranberry juice Fruit Smoothie | Orange juice, pineapple juice, grenadine, fresh banana, guava juice, mango purée Coco Colada | Fresh pineapple, coconut cream, pineapple juice, milk Virgin Strawberry Daiquiri | Strawberry purée, sweet & sour mix, sugar syrup

Beer Included in the MSC Easy Drinks Package

Heineken draft beer (ONLY)

For this package, even though bottled beers are less than the price cap of $7.50, they’re specifically excluded. Mindblowing, right? It just adds to the confusion about the MSC Drinks packages.

Sodas Included in the Easy Package

Sodas by the glass, Fruit juices by the glass, Still or sparkling mineral water

Other beverages included

Espresso, Decaf espresso, Cappuccino, Decaf cappuccino, Caffè latte, Glass of milk, Hot chocolate, Hot tea

Is the Easy package worth it?

That really depends. If you drink basic cocktails such as Gin & Tonic, Bloody Mary, Screwdriver , etc, and aren’t picky about the liquor used, the Easy Package may work for you. 

Easy Plus Drink Package

The Easy Plus Package cost is $61 per day , ($64 for shorter cruises of 6 days or less) but you can upgrade from the Easy package for about $23/per day per person

With this beverage package, you can order drinks in specialty dining restaurants as well as anything included in the above Easy package. There are caveats, more on that later.

Any beverages up to $10 are included in this package which gets you all of the beer options, more wine options, and some frozen drink options that aren’t available in the most basic drink package.  There is also a larger range of liquor brands, cordials, and martinis available at this price point.

The Easy Plus Package is the most common drinks package because it includes just about everything that a typical drinker would order. Even better, this package can be used in specialty dining restaurants as well. With recent changes to the beverage packages, the cruise line now allows you to order a drink that is not included in the package and only pay the difference (plus gratuity)

This is what we ultimately upgraded to from our included Easy Package. It was well worth the upgrade not only for the more inclusive offering, but for the simplicity of not having to think about what we were ordering and if it was included.

In addition to the Easy Package, you can also order the following:

Cocktails included:.

Sapphire Martini Bombay Sapphire gin, Martini dry, olive or lemon peel Appletini Absolut Classic and Absolut Vanilia vodka, apple sour liqueur, sweet & sour mix Royal Manhattan Crown Royal, Martini Rosso, Angostura bitters Cuban Daiquiri Bacardi Superior white rum, lime juice, sugar syrup Absolut Cosmo Absolut Citron vodka, Cointreau, cranberry juice, Rose’s lime Spanish Sidecar Cardinal Mendoza brandy, Cointreau, lemon juice, sugar syrup Screwdriver Made in USA T ito’s vodka, orange juice Classic Margarita Jose Cuervo silver tequila, triple sec, sweet & sour mix, lime juice Dutch Mule K etel One vodka, lime, ginger beer Absolut Cape Cod Absolut Classic vodka, cranberry juice Mimosa Blossom Absolut Mango vodka, Galliano, orange juice, prosecco Bombay Fizz Bombay Sapphire gin, lemon juice, sugar syrup, soda Ultimate Pink Lady Beefeater London Dry gin, lemon juice, pomegranate syrup Caribbean Breeze Ketel One vodka, grapefruit juice, cranberry juice, lime Masters of the Sea Caipirinha Premium cachaça, diced lime, sugar Blue Hawaiian Punch Bacardi Superior white rum, Malibu coconut rum, blue curaçao, pineapple juice, coconut cream Aperol Spritz Aperol, prosecco, club soda, orange slice Jalisco Sunrise Jose Cuervo silver tequila, orange juice, grenadine Absolut Bloody Mary Absolut Classic vodka, tomato juice, salt, pepper, tabasco, Worcestershire sauce Ultimate Iced Tea Smirnoff vodka, Bacardi Superior White rum, Beefeater gin, Jose Cuervo silver tequila, triple sec, sweet & sour mix, cola Bacardi Mojito Bacardi Superior white rum, fresh mint leaves, lime, sugar, club soda Mudslide Absolut vodka, Kahlúa coffee liqueur, Baileys Irish Cream, heavy cream Baileys Alexander Baileys Irish Cream, dark crème de cacao, cream

Premium Extra Package

This drinks package allows you to purchase any beverage up to $16 , however, it comes at a high cost of $85.00 / day per person (this can be as much as $104/day if you are on a short cruise and purchase onboard). You can upgrade from a lower-cost beverage package for the difference in price, i.e. if you have the easy package, for approximately $43/day you can upgrade to this Premium package.  (Note: Prices have changed as of March 1, 2023, and this information reflects the newest pricing)

While this package covers most top-shelf liquor, there are still quite a few wines and drinks that are more than $16, so it’s not as inclusive as other cruise lines’ most premium drink packages.

MSC Premium Extra Drink Menu

Most premium liquors can be purchased with this package including Grey Goose, Aviation Gin, Belvedere, etc. (see the menu below). However, there are still plenty of drinks that are strategically priced above $16, making this package far from all-inclusive. Additionally, most of the champagne and decent wine on board is significantly more than the limit allowed by this package. It’s hard to make sense of this package unless your tastes are squarely within the more premium liquor brands included.

A bonus of these drinks packages is the discounting on bottles of wine (25%), but the reality is good bottles of wine are generally only available at The Butchers Cut Steakhouse, so unless you are dining there regularly, that benefit is minimal. 

In addition to the Easy Package & Easy Plus Package, you can also order the following beverages:

Drinks included in the premium extra package:.

Aviation Martini Aviation gin, maraschino liqueur, crème de violette, fresh lemon juice Hemingway Daiquiri Zacapa 23Y rum, fresh lime juice, grapefruit juice, maraschino liqueur Santa Teresa Manhattan Santa Teresa 1796 rum, orange bitters, red vermouth Gold Rush Woodford Reserve bourbon, fresh lemon juice, honey syrup MSC Signature Martini Disaronno liqueur, Grey Goose vodka, Licor 43, lemon peel Mule Le Poire Grey Goose Le Poire vodka, fresh lime juice, ginger beer Shanghai Margarita Patrón Silver tequila, agave nectar, fresh lime juice, fresh ginger zest Chili Passion Caipirinha Premium caçhaca, lime, raw sugar, hot chili sauce, passion fruit, jalapeño

Ultimate Mai Tai Appleton Estate rum, Bacardi Superior white rum, Disaronno liqueur, pineapple and orange juice, sweet & sour mix, grenadine Purple Rain Bacardi Superior white rum, Finlandia vodka, Bombay Sapphire gin, peach schnapps, blue curaçao, sweet & sour mix, grenadine Coco Loco Bacardi Oakheart spiced rum, Malibu coconut rum, Piña Colada mix, mango purée, fruit punch Jamaican Paradise Appleton Estate rum, Malibu coconut rum, Jose Cuervo silver tequila, Midori melon liqueur, blue curaçao, sweet & sour mix Miami Beach Iced Tea Bacardi Superior white rum, Beefeater gin, Smirnoff vodka, Cuervo silver tequila, blue curaçao, sugar syrup, Sprite Sunset Beach Malibu coconut rum, raspberry liqueur, orange and pineapple juice, grenadine Tropical Tease Midori melon liqueur, Malibu coconut rum, banana liqueur, pineapple juice Emerald Mariachi 1800 Reposado tequila, blue curaçao, lime juice, passion fruit syrup, pineapple juice Mango Mojito Bacardi mango rum, mango purée, fresh mint leaves, lime, club sod a

You ONLY pay the difference in price for a beverage not included in your MSC DRINK package

You can now get a credit towards any drinks not included in your MSC Drink package!. The credit towards a drink is $8 per drink for the Easy Package, $10 per drink for the Easy Plus Package, and $16 per drink for the Premium Extra Package.

For European cruises the credit you get is 7 Euro for the Easy Package, 9 Euro for the Easy Plus and 14 Euro for the Premium Extra package on MSC.

Alcoholic-Free and Minors Package on MSC Cruises

You might be interested in the non-alcoholic package if you’re not a drinker or when traveling with children. This package offers non-alcoholic cocktails, sodas, energy drinks, juices, coffee, tea, and hot chocolate. This package doesn’t apply to specialty restaurants unless it’s for a minor whose group purchased the Easy Plus or Premium Extra alcoholic package. So be prepared to pay for your soda when dining at the Butcher’s Cut, even if you have this package.

These prices will vary if booked on the ship on the day of sailing. Usually by an additional 10% or more. Short sailings are considered anything less than 7 days.

This table of prices is pretty mind-numbing and takes the fun out of figuring out what package is right. Why there are different prices for different lengths of cruise is bizarre and just another way that MSC tends to overcomplicate everything.

In Summary, My experience with the MSC Drink Packages

Originally, I thought the Easy package would be sufficient for our cruise, but discovering the limited beverage options and the fact that you cannot use the package in specialty dining restaurants, we chose to upgrade to the Easy Plus.

Overall this was a good choice, because of the wider variety of options and the ability to use in a specialty restaurant. However, it’s important to know – that when using the Easy Plus in a specialty restaurant like Butcher’s Cut, you must order off of the wine/drink menus in that restaurant!

If your favorite glass of wine isn’t available in the restaurant, you are forbidden to bring anything from an outside bar, which really makes no sense. This is something that they do NOT TELL YOU when upgrading from Easy to Easy Plus on the ship.

Normally this wouldn’t be a big issue except there were very few options on beverage menus that were covered by the Easy Plus package.

These drinks are sort of “vague” in some respect, so definitely look at the MSC Drink Menus article , where there is a unique menu for the Easy Package.

The Easy Package covers all of the above served in the bars, buffet and main restaurant as well as Ocean Cay and other exclusive destinations. This package CANNOT be used in specialty restaurants.

Easy Plus Package includes:

On MSc how much doe sit cost if you buy a beer or a soda pop per purchase since i do not drink much alcohol at all and maybe two sodas a day

Wayne – You can get a beer for about $7.50 and a soda for $3.00-$3.50 + gratuity. You can see the MSC drink menus here

How do you know if the drink you order is within the 10$ limit on the easy plus package? Do the bartenders tell you? I would hate to get a bill for the extra few dollars if not covered. Thanks!

Hi Robin, They are very good about telling you right away if anything you order isn’t in the package, but the menus are also scattered around everywhere, and you’ll quickly learn what types of drinks are extra. I found that the selection of drinks wasn’t incredibly huge, so I knew fast what they had that I liked, and which were going to cost a little more.

I don’t drink alcohol but would like the occasional soda. Is it possible to purchase just individual drinks without the packages?

Hi Peter, Absolutely! If you take a look at the MSC Drink Menus (here) – on the first menu, flip to the last page. You’ll see the list of sodas and other beverages. It’s definitely not worth a package with the occasional soda.

Hi! Sailing in a couple days. Just want water and maybe a MOCKtail or 2 for a day. I wasn’t clear on how much mineral water is included per day or how to access. No soda, tea or coffee for me. The calculator did not offer the nonalcoholic package so wanted your recommendations- I do need to drink alot of water. Can I bring any sealed bottled water aboard? Is there gratuities on bottled water as well and how big are the bottles? Thanks in advance!

Hi Amy – Good point on the calculator – we’ll fix that and add the non-alcoholic package! At about $28 per day for the non-alcoholic package and a water being about $3.25 + gratuities, You’d end up needing to buy about 7 bottled waters per day to “break even”. (They are the large 17 oz sizes you’d get in a restaurant, so it’s a pretty good value) The non alcoholic cocktails are included as well and are usually about $7 to my recollection, but here’s the menus for MSC Drinks . (the first menu flips through to all the non-alcoholic in the back of the menu) – About bringing water, etc. MSC Is one of the only cruise lines that literally allows no beverages to be brought on the ship. Enjoy your cruise! I hope this helps.

We are looking at doing a cruise with our teens in the spring. We don’t drink alcohol, so is it worth buying a drink package? We would like access to sodas, juices, anything non alcoholic, so wondering if you’d advise to get a drink pkg or not. Thanks!

Hi Diana – Basic tea, coffee, water is included in the fare but soda, specialty coffee and other non-alcoholic beverages aren’t included. There IS an Alcohol free package for $28/day per person +/- which is quite a bit less than the other drink packages. HOWEVER, MSC Often does a promo with the “easy” package or “easy plus” as a perk for a bit of an extra charge. Doing the math, you’ll often find that the little higher rate on a cruise that includes the drink package is far less than buying the package separately. For example, on a 7 day booking I looked and the all included fare was about $37/per person per day more expensive and the drink package was included as well as wifi and onboard credit. More benefits for less money for sure! SO be sure to check that pricing and use our drink calculator for MSC (here) to see if you even drink enough soda/non-alcoholic things to make it worth it.

Your calculator doesn’t take into account that they add a 15% gratuity to each drink, and the package includes the gratuity.

Hi Brad, thanks for the comment, we’ll make a change to the formula to include the gratuity in the calculations!

Is there a time limit in between each drink? Like a waiting period of 10/15 minutes?

Hi Sarah – There is not. We would often try a drink of the day or some specialty, hate it, and immediately order something else.

Hope this helps!

I want to get the easy drinks package but my husband cant drink due to Ill health. Do MSC take this into consideration or will we have to both buy same package.

Hi Karen – Normally with a medical notice from a doctor, the second person doesn’t have to purchase an alcohol package. HOWEVER, MSC rules change… sometimes depending on who you speak to. My experience with this is that they will request you purchase the EASY package for yourself and the NON ALCOHOLIC package for your husband. But it will have to be done by phone, and whether they ask for medical proof will likely depend on who you speak to at the time. I had friends traveling with us that were in your exact situation and they were not asked for proof but were in fact told the non drinking person has to purchase a non-alcoholic package.

Is Redbul available at no additional cost in the easy plus package?

Yes, my recollection is that energy drinks were included with the Easy Plus!

So for my wife who does not drink any alcohol is the minor package the best? Based on the menu the easy plus package covers a variety of beers is that correct vs only Heineken on the easy package.

Hi Jason, they (MSC) will likely require the Alcohol-Free Package as I believe the Minors package is truly teens and below. They’re basically the same thing, you’re just getting penalized for being a grown up 🙂 – That said, the Easy Plus package you are considering does cover all of the beers. There wasn’t a beer served that wasn’t covered by the Easy Plus. And yes, Heineken is the only thing available on the Easy Package. So if you’re a beer drinker, it’s worth looking at the Easy Plus. BUT! Keep in mind, the specials that MSC runs sometimes include the beverage packages and it may be cheaper to go ahead and book with those specials rather than cruise only and adding an Alcohol-Free Package + Easy Plus package. Even if your wife doesn’t take advantage of the alcohol, she can have all of the non-alcoholic beverages she wants and in the end the total price may be less on the promotion. Hope this helps!

If you purchase a non-alcoholic drink package, do you pay the difference for an alcoholic drink or the full price?

Hi Tom – The non alcoholic package won’t work to apply anything towards an alcoholic beverage purchase. However if you have the most basic beverage package (Easy), you can pay the difference for drinks that are more expensive than what is covered by the Easy (this is new for 2023)

Thank you, kind of what I thought. I’d have to to go easy plus since the easy package is not inclusive of some of the non-alcoholic drinks I would like.

Interesting! I’m curious about what non-alcoholic drinks you like that wouldn’t be included in the Easy Package? In our experience, everything non-alcoholic was included in the Easy Package (but there may be something I’m missing!) 🙂

What to do if one person drinks and other doesn’t on the same cabin?

Typically everyone of age in the same cabin must have the same drink package. The cruise line will make an exception for medical reasons. Mostly they don’t want one person getting the package and sharing the drinks with their cabin mate 🙁

Thank you for all of this information. It is very hard to navigate all of this from MSC website. I am not a big drinker so I wasn’t sure if the packages were necessary. Your drink calculator is very helpful . If you could answer a question: there are no frozen drinks on the easy drink menu. Does that mean there is no option for frozen margaritas?

Hi Claudia, I’m glad this information helped! We were able to get frozen drinks without a problem, as long as the liquor type was in the basic package. They didn’t distinguish between frozen or on the rocks with things like Margaritas and Daiquiris.

We are sailing to Rome from Durban 20th April and have bought 18 of the 18 unit packages, my question is does a unit mean a short and a mixer, ie, rum and coke or it that 2 units.

Hi Jennifer, we’ve done both Europe & USA cruises on MSC – and in our experience, a rum and coke was in fact a single drink. I know in Europe, it’s common to sell the mixer separate, but that does not seem to be the case on MSC Ships. I hope this helps & enjoy your cruise!

My husband and I are booked to sail from Durban in April on msc Orchestra 25 day cruise to Genoa. Please can you advise if drinks packages are on offer on the ship or if we pay per drink and are soft drinks free? If we pay per drink can you email prices so that we can work out a budget, many thanks.

Hi Ann! When you login to your MSC account you should see a way to pre-purchase the packages. If you wait until you get on the ship, they will be about 20% more expensive! We did the “easy” package which covered sodas, specialty coffee, bottled water, and quite a few basic drinks, but upgraded on another trip to the Easy Plus which gets you better beverages and allows you to use the package in the specialty restaurants (which you can’t with the basic Easy package). We put together a handy drink calculator for MSC (See the drink calculator) so you can estimate your budget based on how you normally consume. This will let you know really fast if you’re going to make the drink package worth it! I hope this helps.

Their top package used to include everything but full bottles of wine. Last time on Miraviglia it included everything on the champagne bar menu including $20 drinks. On the Seaside it used to cover the specialty chocolate drinks and gelato. Mildly disappointed. Used to be the best package. Bartenders loved it because they could make the high dollar stuff most people won’t try

I feel your disappointment! When we were on the Meraviglia , the whole drink package was so confusing that even some of the staff weren’t sure what to include or not. I had hoped they’d simplify it, but the new packages with prices were just released, and it’s still a head-scratcher.

It will be our first time on a cruise. Reading your tips is being mind and eye opening. We will make sure to have every single detail well calculated before we proceed. Thank you! Great website!

Bar Menu For Yacht Club

By TRAVELINGMAN2 , January 6, 2016 in MSC Cruises

TRAVELINGMAN2

Does anyone have a copy of the bar menu that shows which liquor and drinks are included if you are staying in the Yacht Club? Thanks.

Share on other sites.

you could also check out the wonderful review of @Iluvcruising2 he gives a very detailed discription of everything regarding the yacht club!

As a Yacht Club guest, how are drinks with premium liquors handled in the Top Sail Lounge? Are you charged for the whole drink or just the "extra" for the premium liquor? Thank you,

You are charged the full amount. I like a Drambie in the evening and this was not included. I had to purchase this separately at the full amount.

That's great information. Thank you so much.

I am kind of surprised that MSC doesn't have at least 1 12 year old scotch available in the Yacht Club.

apatchetear

plucasana, Do you know how old this is?

As far as I can remember they do not have any malts they only have blended whisky (scotch):(

we were on the Divina April 16 and the menu looked the same. there are additional items that you can order (for a fee) I did not post these pages...

Yacht Club Scotch menu directly from the Yacht Club Bar Menu found in the desk of each stateroom:

Johnnie Walker Blue: $22.00

Chivas Regal Royal Salute 21Y: $16.00

Johnnie Walker Black Label 12Y: $6.75

Chivas Regal 12Y: $6.75

Dewar's Special Reserve 12Y: $6.75

I have seen all the different menus from the different bars on Divina. There are a ton of new cocktails I would like to try. Will they make anything in the Yacht Club or strictly what is on their menu?

The bartenders will make any cocktail you like,,,you may have to give the bartender the recipe sometimes though,,:)

Thanks for posting. Very helpful.

When we were on Divina I asked for a B&B. They didn't have that in the Yacht Club...so they gave me two glasses...one of brandy and one of Benedictine. Worked for me!

Am traveling with a friend Dec. 9 in the Yacht Club on Divina. He seems to be "addicted" to Fireball (Cinnamon Whiskey.) Anyone know if it's available in the Top Sail lounge and other bar venues? Thanks for any info!

Yes it is there.

Have fun - Divinia YC was great. Note you also get free gelato by pool and down off the atrium area.

thecruisers6

Hello all. On the Divina end of September the list changed and included far more premium spirits. One I remember was Absolute Elyx vodka as our friends were drinking it.

I’m pretty sure there were single malts available for free. Not Glenlivet I would have remembered that as a guardian [emoji3].

If you see anything in other bars you like just let them know and ask nicely.

The prosecco at the black card party was the best I’ve ever had - never got to find out the make as they said it was a secret. We were having a joke at the time [emoji3]

You will have an amazing time I’m sure.

Yes it is there.   Have fun - Divinia YC was great. Note you also get free gelato by pool and down off the atrium area.

Many thanks for your speedy reply. He will be very happy!

DaCruiseBug

I'm a bit disappointed that Johnny Black isn't included. It's a basic scotch and a favorite of scotch drinkers.

I think it was on the new menu - there were several added to it.

Ah go ahead with the "Blue", you're on vacation ;)

EXCLUSIVE SAVINGS: Get Deals on MSC Seascape Cruises!

MSC Yacht Club Bars

The Yacht Club is MSC Cruises’ “ship within a ship” concept. Not only does the Yacht Club feature the most luxurious accommodations on the ship, it includes an exclusive sundeck, restaurant, lounge, and bar. These facilities require keycard access and are limited to only those staying within the Yacht Club.

Guests staying in the MSC Yacht Club have two exclusive bars, one on the Deck 20 sundeck and the indoor Top Sail Lounge on Deck 16.

Yacht Club guests can order up their cocktails of choice or perhaps splurge on a bottle of wine from the carefully curated list.

Sundeck Bar Menu | Top Sail Lounge Menu

The Top 19 Solarium is an exclusive outdoor space for Aurea guests on Deck 19 of MSC Seascape. The area features prime deck space with upgraded lounge furniture, two whirlpools, and a bar. Thus, it is certainly a nice escape from the crowds.

Depending on whether it is a sea day or a port day, the Top 19 Bar opens anywhere between 9 AM and 2 PM and stays open until 7 PM in the evenings.

The Horizon Bar is located on Deck 19 overlooking the main outdoor pool area. This small bar features the standard pool bar menu and offers some comfortable lounge seating nearby for guests looking to relax while enjoying their beverages.

Depending on the ship’s ports of call, the Horizon Bar opens somewhere between 9 AM and 3 PM and remains open until 11 PM at night, weather permitting.

Pool Bar Menu

The Marina Bar is the large bar located near the main outdoor pool, the Marina Pool. This will be your go-to bar if you are lounging poolside or if you are enjoying one of the many pool deck parties in the evenings. The Marina Bar also has a gelato station off to one side.

The Marina Bar is open 8 AM to 1 AM daily, weather dependent.

The pool bar menu features all your favorite drinks from a pina colada, to a mai tai, mojito, and margarita, along with beer and wine.

Jungle Pool Beach Bar (Deck16)

Likewise, the Jungle Pool Beach Bar is located near the Jungle Pool on Deck 16. This family-friendly pool has intricate theming and a retractable roof, meaning it’s always a pool day no matter the weather outside. There is also additional lounge seating and a few tabletop games located upstairs.

While you are enjoying all the fun that this space has to offer, the Jungle Pool Beach Bar will serve up your favorite Caribbean cocktails, alongside gelato selections.

On sea days, the Jungle Pool Beach Bar is typically open from 8 AM until 8 PM. On port days, this bar is generally open from 1 PM to 8 PM.

The Marketplace Buffet & Restaurant is the only casual, complimentary dining option available on MSC Seascape. Thus, odds are you will be eating here quite a bit, at least for breakfast and lunch. So, if you want a drink to go along with your meal, this is the place.

Though, you aren’t able to order directly from the bar. You have to order with a server who will deliver the drink to you.

The Marketplace Buffet Bar is open daily from 6 AM to 1 AM.

Buffet Bar Menu

The Sky Bar is located on the portside of Deck 16 aft overlooking the iconic glass-floored Bridge of Sighs. This is a great spot to grab a sail away drink or to just enjoy the views. With the additional seating on the starboard side of this outdoor deck, it’s also a nice spot for al fresco dining at the Marketplace Buffet.

The Sky Bar is generally open 8 AM until 8 PM, but it occasionally closes midday on port days.

SCORE EXCLUSIVE SAVINGS ON MSC SEASCAPE!

While many of the bars on MSC Seascape lack any theming or unique décor, the Loft Café is an exception. This venue features oversized chairs and tables, with yellow and wood tones reminiscent of a writer’s room or a quiet hotel lounge.

The venue features live music in the evenings and is occasionally used during the day for private events.

Open from 7 AM until late, the Loft Café serves the standard bar menu alongside espresso based beverages. This was our go-to spot for our morning lattes and a great spot to grab some espresso martinis in the evenings.

The service at the Loft Café was some of the best on the ship as well.

Standard Bar Menu

Decked out with sports memorabilia, this classic sports bar offers craft beers, a fully stocked bar for other beverages, classic game time food options, an oversized television for sports broadcasts, and individual TV booths to watch the action. There is also an adjacent billiard room.

The Sports Bar opens anywhere between 10 AM and 4 PM depending on the ship’s call into port and remains open until late.

This is the perfect spot to grab some friends, brews, and chicken wings to watch your favorite team play.

Sports Bar Menu

Hola! Tacos and Cantina serves up Mexican-style street food in a vibrant open setting restaurant, with a nearby bar also serving up some tasty drinks. This bar is open whenever the restaurant is open. If you’d prefer to just pull up a seat at the bar instead of dining at the restaurant, you can certainly do so.

The Hola! Cantina features a variety of tequila, mezcal, and cerveza. So, you can choose from a standard margarita or create your own. Check the dailies for specials like BOGO margaritas at this bar.

Hola! Cantina Menu

The Wine Cellar is located on Deck 8 nearby the specialty restaurants. This space allows guests to explore the ship’s walk-through wine cellar and indulge in various tasting experiences. There are pour-your-own wine stations located here as well.

While the dailies state that the venue is open from 12-2 PM and 5:45-10 PM daily, we never witnessed much going on in this space during our sailing on MSC Seascape.

The elegantly appointed Cocktail Bar in the Chef’s Court on MSC Seascape serves a variety of fun and refreshing drinks. This is a cozy spot to enjoy some exclusive cocktails like the Rose Lychee Sangria, a spiced Mai tai, or the Indochine martini before or after dinner in one of the specialty restaurants.

The drinks and the service at this bar were some of the best we encountered on our sailing.

The Cocktail Bar is generally open whenever the specialty restaurants are open, usually 12 to 2 PM and 5:45 to 10 PM.

Cocktail Bar Menu

The Uptown Lounge hosts a variety of activities during the day including trivia, dance classes, Name That Tune, the Majority Rules game show, and more.

In the evenings, this lounge features live music and cocktails for those looking to unwind after dinner.

The bar in the Uptown Lounge generally doesn’t open until 7 PM each evening and serves the standard bar menu.

Perhaps one of the best areas on MSC Seascape is Deck 8 aft. This space features an adults-only Infinity Pool. These two pools offer great wake views and even some in-pool loungers. Conveniently located nearby, there is an outdoor bar and gelato shop as well.

Not to mention, both the portside and starboard sides of deck 8 midship feature additional outdoor seating and side-facing whirlpools for more fantastic views.

If you are lounging in this space, the Infinity Bar is your go-to spot to grab a cocktail. This bar is open 7 AM until 10 PM daily, weather permitting.

The MSC Seascape Casino Bar is centrally located in the casino on Deck 7 and is adorned with an artistic representation of the Statue of Liberty. Lady Liberty can be seen from the deck above in Liberty Plaza.

The Casino Bar opens at 10 AM on sea days and somewhere between 2 and 6 PM on port days.

The dazzling Champagne & Wine Bar is located off the open atrium on Deck 7. This bar’s signature menu offers a variety of champagne, prosecco, and other bubbly drinks from around the world, like the Chambord Royale or French Kiss.

This bar is open from 5 PM until midnight daily and is a great spot to grab a pre-dinner cocktail while enjoying some of the happenings in the atrium.

Champagne Bar Menu

Le Cabaret Rouge is an entertainment space located at the aft of MSC Seascape. This large, yet intimate venue is home to a variety show each evening which highlights several unique acts. From live singers, to a comedian pianist, to acrobats and a hula-hoop dancer, it is a hodge-podge of entertainment. 

The venue hosts other activities as well like the Guinness World Record game show and the Glow Party, and it also turns into the ship’s nightclub each evening at midnight with a DJ spinning hits until sunrise.

During all this evening fun, you can grab your drinks from the bar in this venue which is open from 7 PM nightly. There are also servers making their rounds in this venue.

Of note, this venue is not used much during the day. So, it can be a nice quiet spot to read, get some work done, or just relax sans people.

The Venchi 1878 Chocolate Bar is a chocolate lover’s paradise. This venue serves a variety of non-alcoholic and alcoholic beverages made with the brand’s signature chocolate including some delicious espresso-based drinks. The bar also serves a variety of other chocolates and gelato that are crafted on board in an open-air kitchen.

Venchi is generally open every day from 8 AM to midnight. Unfortunately though, none of the drinks (or other items) at Venchi are included in any of the MSC drink packages.

Venchi Chocolate Bar Menu

The Shine Bar is located in the open atrium on Deck 6. This bar is open from 4 PM daily, serving the ship’s standard bar menu. Overlooking all the action of the atrium, this is a great place to grab a drink while enjoying the live music or nightly festivities that occur here.

Of note, there is no bar located in Times Square also on this deck. So, if you are heading there to listen to the live piano music, you might want to grab a drink at the Shine Bar first. There are some servers in the area taking drink orders as well.

Last of the MSC Seascape Bars is the aptly named Seascape Bar. This bar is located on Deck 5 in the center of all the action occurring in the atrium.

This is also one of bars open the earliest on the ship, as it is open from 6 AM daily. All bars on MSC ships serve espresso along with other cocktails; thus, you can head here early in the morning for your caffeine fix.

However, if you are looking for a custom latte, you might be turned away like we were several mornings. While we were told this bar should be able to make them, the bar staff here often directed us to wait until the Loft Café opened at 7 AM. This is why we miss a dedicated coffee bar on MSC Seascape.

Whether you are sailing on the latest MSC Virtuosa , MSC Seaside or the MSC Fantasia you can find the perfect all inclusive drink package for your stay. We have recently travelled with MSC where we downloaded the very latest MSC Virtuosa drink menus too you can find them in this post.

Everything you need to know about MSC Drink Packages Menus with Prices for 2024

For a MSC drink package to be worth the money you need to work out exactly what you would drink on your vacation. For instance a coffee in the morning sodas or cocktails by the pool, a wine paired with dinner and a few beers in the evening would easily cover the daily rate and work out cheaper than purchasing drinks separately. You can log in to your cruise booking to get your cruise drink package price. But read on for some more guidance on the rough prices of the drink packages and prices of the drinks to gauge whether you will need a package.

Will you be getting off of the ship and going ashore? Use this guide on  MSC cruise Ship packages and also the menus to see what is included? This also includes what drinks you get if you travel in Yacht club . We personally prefer a drinks package as by the time we have totted up a glass or two of wines at lunch and dinner followed by a cocktail or two it comes out cheaper. Use our drink calculator below to find out whether it is better for you to purchase the drinks package.

MSC drink packages and menus the ultimate guide for 2024

Wherever you are sailing be it North America, South America, Caribbean itineraries or the Mediterrean the drinks will be the same. However all MSC cruises reflect where they are cruising. The beverage package packages are the same also the only thing that changes is whether the drink menu is in pounds, euros or dollars.

If you are sailing out of Saudi Arabia no alcohol will be served and bars will be shut until you sail out to international waters. This is not the case for other neighbouring countries such as the UAE, Doha, Dubai and Qatar these places the bars will be open.

 MSC drink package questions and answers

Is there free ice creams included in your drinks package on msc.

Everybody does love soft serve ice cream. There are some free soft serve on the bigger ships that are vanilla or chocolate. Other than that Ice cream is only included only for children as part of the minor package and the non alcoholic package. However can get ice cream with your meals.

Are the drink prices same on all MSC ships?

If the MSC ship is priced in Euro (i.e. the Med, UAE, Northern Europe and Caribbean not departing Miami) then yes the price is consistent. When the ship currency is USD on Miami and South Africa sailings then the prices are different.

If you want a drink that is over the top package price on MSC do you pay the difference?

You have to pay for the drink seperate plus the 15% gratuity. You can not just pay the extra difference in price.

We are soon to travel on the MSC Virtuosa and have an included Premium drinks package. Is it possible to up grade to Premium plus. How much does it cost and is it better to do this on board or with the booking agent.

You can upgrade on the ship but it may be cheaper to do it before you go.

Goodmorning, I am trying to find out what is included in the easypackage. The menu’s that you show are in pound Sterling, the prices in the package is in Euro’s. Is a simple rum-And-coke included in the easy package, or should we upgrade.

Hi they normally have a selection of easy drinks like rum and coke on the menu. But this would not be premium rum

I’m sailing on the MSC Virtuoso just now (January 2022) and purchased the premium extra drinks package at time of booking in March 2020.

For the awareness of future passengers contrary to this website advice MSC have advised that the in cabin mini bar is pay only and not included in ANY of the pre paid packages.

Disappointing I know.

Hi thank you for the update we do try to keep content as fresh as possible. We will contact our MSC representative for an update on this change too.

The exception is in the Yacht Club. The Yacht Club drink package (which is always included in the cost of being in the Yacht Club) includes the snacks and drinks in the cabin mini bar. However, only beer, wine and non-alcoholic beverages automatically get replenished. Anything else in the mini bar (snacks and spirits) will replenished only on request and that replenishment will inclur a charge.

Website says “premium drinks, with no price limit”. However this is no longer accurate, there is now a 13euro/15 dollar limit

Thank you for the update we will get that changed!

I hope you can help, do you know if MSC Curises have Dr. Pepper or Diet Dr. Pepper on board the ship Divina?

I have called MSC customer service about the Alcohol-Free Package and what Soft Drinks are available on board the Divina, however, they are unable to confirm what soft drinks that include. I am trying to find out if Dr. Pepper and Diet Dr. Pepper are soft drinks on board. Since the package is non-refundable if these soft drinks are not available, I would not purchase the package. I hope you can help with this question. If you need it my booking number is 41388483, thanks in advance for your help.

Includes: • A wide choice of alcohol-free cocktails • Soft drinks • Energy drinks • Mineral water • Flavored water • Fruit juices • Coffee drinks (latte, espresso, cappuccino, etc.) • Hot chocolate and hot teas • Soft-serve ice cream

The Alcohol-free package can be enjoyed in our bars, self-service buffet, casual and main restaurants, Ocean Cay and other exclusive destinations.

Does not apply to our signature venues including Venchi 1878 establishments, Lavazza Coffee Shop and Jean Philippe Chocolate, Coffee, Crepes & Gelato.

Thanks for your help, Jonathan B.

Hi I’m sorry I do not know if there is Dr Pepper onboard. I will see if i can find out

Hi there, me and my partner are going on the Virtuosa in September. Im not sure if you will know or if this is a stupid question but I can see at the British Pub, a price for a pint is £8. We have the easy plus package which covers up to 9 euros, will this be applicable for the £8 pint and other drinks? thanks 🙂

Hi are you sailing out of the Uk? The euro drink prices are different so where the mocktails are £7 on the uk Virtuosa menu the Euro menu I have just seen was 6. So i would imagine a £9 pint would be 8 euros if that helps. All of the bottled beers last week were in Euros and were from 6.50 euros to 7.50.

@Donna Vallance, yes we are! ahh i see what you mean, thank you very much 🙂

Hi, We are deciding if we should get the Easy Plus or Premium Extra package. We sailed the Med on the Grandiosa last year with a Premium package which was up to €10/drink. I understand Premium Extra is up to €13/drink but on the menus shown here the signature cocktails are £14 – DC oes this mean they’re not included in the package? When speaking to MSC on the phone they said Premium Extra was practically anything in a glass, including champagne.

Hi, It depends where you are sailing from. In the UK the MSC menus in Pounds always tends to be dearer then euros and then anything priced in dollars cheaper still. As in it will be €7 in Europe, £8 in uk and then about $6 in USA. The cocktails on the easy plus package are €7 in Europe but in the uk they have been dearer. The premium package covers pretty much everything except the signature cocktails. It includes all cocktails and premium cocktails. As far as im aware and in my experience last week ( in euros ) the prem extra doesn’t include the signature cocktails. These were priced in euros at €14 and the premium extra package said up to €13 euros. I hope this helps a bit of course its only from experience.

Hi – confused about whether to buy the Easy Plus for Fantasia sailing out of Athens in Sept. MSC website says includes drinks upto 8€ but not sure which wines/cocktails this will cover as your menus are in UK£? Also have heard on a cruise forum that prices will increase from Monday 1 Aug?

Generally it is the same in euros and pounds. In the UK the MSC menus in Pounds always tends to be dearer then euros and then anything priced in dollars cheaper still. As in it will be €7 in Europe, £8 in uk and then about $6 in USA. The cocktails on the easy plus package are €7 in Europe but in the uk they have been dearer. The premium package covers pretty much everything except the signature cocktails. It includes all cocktails and premium cocktails. As far as im aware and in my experience last week ( in euros ) the prem extra doesn’t include the signature cocktails. These were priced in euros at €14 and the premium extra package said up to €13 euros. I hope this helps a bit of course its only from experience. Most of the cocktails are in the premium.

Hi, Are alchoholic drinks sevred upon boarding? We are due to depart 2300 New Years Eve and hope we can get served prior to sailing. Am I right in believing that only Saudi Arabia is a dry port? Thanks

We have travelled on MSC to Dubai which is a no alcohol country. As soon boarded on the ship you can consume alcohol. However as far as I am aware there is a no alcohol policy in Saudi until your ship is 12 miles away. I would assume your ship will depart early to account for this. Please let us know how you get on!

Hello we travel to several cabins. if we don’t have the same drink packages, can we eat at the same table in the restaurant?

If you have separate cabins you need to check that they are linked so that you are sitting together in the dining room

Hi Donna , We are sailing out of Barcelona in November 22 on MSC Seaview , Can you confirm that the Easy plus package includes all drinks up to €10 . Some sites say only €8 so bit confused . Thanks x

It depends where you are sailing to some says it in euros and some dollars too. But the easy plus covers most cocktails other than premium

I am looking at a cruise leaving the UK next September. I am confused about the drinks pricing. Would the Easy Plus package cover the classic cocktails and a good selection of the cheaper brand of whiskies?

Yes the easy plus package includes the classic cocktails but not the premium ones. There is quite a lot of choice

Good morning,

Could you kindly provide the drinks list of MSC Divina for Summer 2023 to have a perfect indication of what lies under each package;

easy package – €6 easy plus package – €8 Premium extra Package – €13

The menus are the same on most of the ships. The closet we have to Divina is the Fantasia ones which are on this post

My wife and I are booked on a 7 day med cruise from Barcelona in June, she is teetotal , is there any way I can book a alcohol free package for her, and an easy plus package for myself.

it is generally for both in one cabin but if you you ring them and tell them you can normally will change it for you

Hi there I’ve not seen prosecco mentioned I drinks menu,do they have it on board do you know.Thank you, izzy x

Yes they do as well as champagne on the premium menu.

MSC Cruises

Everything you need to know about MSC Cruises cabins and suites

A relative newcomer in the North American market, MSC Cruises is equal parts elegant and kitschy. The line tends to appeal to a wide swath of cruisers, from Europeans who like to party into the wee hours of the morning to American families who book because of affordable fares and "kids sail free" pricing.

To satisfy its diverse passenger base, MSC offers accommodations to fit all types of travelers. Rooms include inexpensive inside cabins that sleep two people, midlevel staterooms with windows and balconies, and high-end suites that offer cruisers with larger budgets a private oasis in the form of the MSC Yacht Club .

A variety of connecting rooms and cabins with extra bunks accommodate larger groups and families who wish to share space.

Because your cruise cabin will be your home away from home for several days, it's important to book one that fits your needs. That's especially true if you're sharing it with several people.

Whether you're looking at an inside cabin for a cruise with friends, balcony accommodations for you and your significant other or a suite for your family, here TPG breaks down what you can expect when you book a room on one of MSC's ships.

For more cruise news, reviews and tips, sign up for TPG's cruise newsletter .

MSC Cruises cabin primer

MSC Cruises has become one of the fastest-growing lines in the cruise industry, with about two dozen ships in its fleet. The vessels fall into six classes : Lirica, Musica, Fantasia, Meraviglia, Seaside and World.

Although cabin offerings can vary from ship to ship and class to class, the standard types remain the same: inside, outside, balcony and suite.

Additionally, you'll find the same basic amenities in each room, unless otherwise noted below. They include two twin beds that can be joined to form a queen- or king-size bed; an in-cabin bathroom with a shower, a sink, a toilet and basic soap, shower gel and shampoo; a couple of nightstands; a chair or sofa; a desk/vanity; a closet; a safe; a hair dryer; a minifridge; a phone; USB outlets and a selection of both North American and European outlets.

On all ships except MSC Lirica, MSC Opera, MSC Sinfonia and MSC Armonia, you'll also find an interactive TV that allows you to view the daily schedule, check your onboard account and choose from a selection of live TV programs and movies.

Twice-daily room tidying is provided by a room steward assigned to each cabin, and room service is available throughout the day for an added fee.

One confusing aspect of MSC's bookings is that you'll have to select an experience package in addition to a cabin type. Package tiers determine things like your ability to choose a specific cabin and preferred dining time and whether you'll receive welcome amenities in your room. Certain cabin types are only available in conjunction with certain package experiences and vice versa. Those are noted in each respective section below.

Accessible cabins , including accommodations for wheelchair users, are available on every ship in MSC's fleet. In addition to more space, they feature wider doorways and lowered sinks and toilets in the bathrooms, as well as grab bars.

MSC Cruises' experience packages

Here's what you get when you book each of MSC's three experience packages, which determine the perks you'll receive on your sailing.

• Accommodations
• Complimentary food in the dining room and buffet
• Broadway-style theater entertainment
• Access to the onboard gym, pool and kids club
• MSC Voyagers Club points
• One for-fee change to your cruise booking (with some restrictions)
• Drink package discount at time of booking
• All Bella perks
• Choice of specific cabin and location
• One free change to your cruise booking (with some restrictions)
• Ability to choose between early and late seating for dinner
• Room service (complimentary for breakfast, but fees apply for other meals)
• Discount on pre-cruise specialty dining package
• All Fantastica and Bella perks
• Flexible My Choice dining, which lets you eat at any time you choose between set hours
• Free 24-hour room service delivery
• Pillow menu
• A welcome package, including Prosecco and chocolates
• Complimentary access to your ship's solarium and thermal area
• A 10% discount on all spa treatments purchased on board
• Special Balinese massage offer when booked pre-cruise
• Complimentary use of bathrobe and slippers
• Priority boarding and luggage drop-off

Inside cabins on MSC Cruises ships

Inside cabins — rooms with no windows — are available on all ships in the MSC fleet. Ranging from 140 to 301 square feet (depending on the ship), they make for great sleeping because they're so dark. They're also ideal for passengers who are on a budget.

In addition to the standard amenities mentioned above, they provide room for anywhere from two to four passengers to sleep. (Rooms that sleep more than two feature bunks that pull down from the ceiling.)

These cabins are available with the line's Bella and Fantastica experiences.

If you're sailing solo, some MSC vessels offer cabins for one outfitted with a twin bed that converts into a couch. These interior studio accommodations are only available with the Bella package on MSC Meraviglia , MSC Bellissima and the line's World Class ships.

Ocean-view cabins on MSC Cruises ships

Ocean-view rooms are similar to insides in that they provide basic amenities — but with a view.

Offering 129 to 269 square feet of space (depending on the specific ship and ocean-view category), these staterooms allow you to see outside through a porthole or a window that doesn't open.

MSC's outside cabins are available to passengers who book Bella and Fantastica packages.

Additionally, if you're traveling with your family or another group, several of MSC Cruises' ships — particularly those in the Meraviglia and Seaside classes — feature space for as many as 10 passengers via a series of connecting rooms. Options are available at the ocean-view and balcony levels.

Balcony cabins on MSC Cruises ships

You might be surprised to discover that most of MSC Cruises' balcony cabins provide less interior square footage than what's available in inside or ocean-view staterooms.

Balcony rooms run anywhere from 129 to 205 square feet, but their key feature is, of course, a private balcony, which does add an extra 32 to 129 square feet, depending on the vessel and specific type of balcony room booked. These cabins are bookable in conjunction with MSC's Bella, Fantastica and Aurea experiences.

Although balcony cabins offer upgraded amenities, including MSC's brand of hand lotion and toiletries, they are largely the same as inside and ocean-view accommodations.

MSC's newest ships — including those in the Meraviglia, Seaside and World Classes — house connecting balcony rooms that can sleep up to 10 in the same group traveling together.

Additionally, on its World Class ships, the line has introduced inward-facing balconies, similar to the ones Royal Caribbean pioneered in 2009 with the debut of its Oasis Class vessels . On World Europa, for example, they overlook the ship's promenade, offering views of the activity below, rather than the ocean.

MSC Cruises suites

All ships in MSC's fleet have suites that can be booked as part of the Fantastica and Aurea packages, but it's Aurea that offers the largest number of perks, as outlined above.

The several types of suites vary by ship in terms of size and amenities. Some come with balconies, while others only offer floor-to-ceiling panoramic windows.

Junior Suites

Although this room type is listed as a suite, it's essentially a balcony cabin with a bit more space — 183 square feet of interior accommodation with a balcony that ranges from 140 to 183 square feet.

Standard suites include rooms with huge balconies larger than the cabin's interior space and ones with private whirlpool tubs. They run from 269 to 355 square feet, with balconies measuring 32 to 409 square feet.

Grand Suites

Coming in between 377 and 420 square feet, with balconies spanning from 32 to 495 square feet, Grand Suites — found on Seaside and World Class ships — come in two types. They include standard one-bedroom Grand Suites, as well as two-bedroom varieties.

The latter has one bedroom with a queen-size bed and another with two twins. It sleeps up to five passengers and offers two bathrooms — one with a shower and the other with a bathtub.

While most suites are designed for double occupancy, some suite accommodations on MSC Bellissima, MSC Grandiosa, MSC Virtuosa and MSC Magnifica can sleep up to five people.

MSC Yacht Club suites on MSC ships

All cabins located in the MSC Yacht Club — an exclusive, gated area on select ships — are called suites, even the smallest and least expensive, which don't have windows or balconies.

Yacht Club suite types range from insides to two-deck duplexes, all of which come with butler and concierge services, luxuriously appointed furnishings (such as real marble finishes, memory foam mattresses and Egyptian cotton sheets) and access to members-only restaurants, bars (alcohol is free there), lounges, pools and sun decks.

The Yacht Club features seven different types of rooms. Ships that have the MSC Yacht Club on board include MSC Bellissima, MSC Divina, MSC Fantasia, MSC Grandiosa, MSC Meraviglia, MSC Preziosa, MSC Seaside, MSC Seascape, MSC Seaview, MSC Seashore, MSC Splendida, MSC Virtuosa and MSC World Europa.

Note: Not all Yacht Clubs have the same suite types available.

MSC Yacht Club Interior Suites

Although these 161- to 226-square-foot cabins don't offer a view or fresh air, they are elegantly decorated and include all the Yacht Club benefits mentioned above.

MSC Yacht Club Deluxe Suites

These Yacht Club digs are the equivalent of a balcony cabin — but in a dedicated area that includes all the exclusive perks. They run 236 to 366 square feet and have balconies ranging from 54 to 86 square feet, so they also come with a bit more space, both inside and outdoors.

MSC Yacht Club Deluxe Grand Suites

Similarly, Deluxe Grand Suites are like the Yacht Club equivalent of booking a Grand Suite with more perks. Depending on the ship, they offer anywhere from 269 to 463 square feet of space, plus 65- to 129-square-foot balconies. Some Grand Suites also have two bedrooms instead of one. Further, these rooms on Seaside Class ships include bathrooms with bathtubs, as well as separate living areas.

MSC Yacht Club Duplex Suites

Rising two decks, MSC's duplex staterooms measure 495 to 635 square feet and come with 65- to 334-square-foot balconies. They feature living rooms with two-person sofa beds downstairs and master bedrooms upstairs, which also sleep two passengers.

Each of these accommodations comes complete with two walk-in closets and two bathrooms — one with a bathtub and one with a shower. Most duplexes on Meraviglia and World Class ships also have their own private whirlpool tubs.

MSC Yacht Club Executive and Family Suites

The line's Executive and Family Suites, available only on Fantasia Class vessels, are an excellent choice for anyone who wants to stay in the Yacht Club with a family or other group of more than two people.

This option, which is one type of suite (despite its confusing name), has space for up to five cruisers via a combination of bunk beds, sofa beds and beds that pull down from the ceiling, depending on the ship. The suites clock in at around 431 to 549 square feet, depending on the vessel.

The only drawback is that these staterooms have no balconies and no in-room dining areas, but they do include all the perks you'd find in Yacht Club cabins.

MSC Yacht Club Royal Suites

Although they only occupy one level, at 388 to 667 square feet, MSC's Yacht Club Royal Suites are right up there with the Duplex Suites in terms of space. They offer the second-largest amount of square footage after the Owner's Suites. They come with huge balconies comprising 355 to 753 square feet of outdoor area.

Additionally, bathrooms in these suites offer bathtubs on Fantasia, Meraviglia, Seaside and World Class ships, and the latter three have private whirlpool tubs, as well. All four classes' Royal Suites also include separate living room areas.

MSC Yacht Club Owner's Suites

The largest and most impressive of all MSC's cabins are the Owner's Suites found in the Yacht Club. Offering an impressive 840 to 1,119 square feet — larger than some land-based apartments — plus 269- to 670-square-foot balconies, they're some of the most luxurious rooms afloat.

Specific amenities vary by ship, but as an example, Owner's Suites on MSC World Europa offer floor-to-ceiling windows and walk-in closets. These accommodations on both the line's Seaside and World Class vessels also feature bathrooms with separate showers and bathtubs, as well as private whirlpool tubs and separate living room areas.

Bottom line

Although MSC Cruises' cabin types are straightforward, the line's add-on experiences can complicate things a bit.

Overall, what's key to remember is that MSC Cruises offers a wide variety of rooms and pricing to meet just about any budget or style of cruising. Each ship will offer accommodation choices from the least expensive, bare-bones interior rooms to the priciest suites, which come with butler and concierge services.

When you sail with MSC Cruises, you can expect function, style and comfort, regardless of the cabin type you book.

Location and contact.

The only club open every day in Omsk waiting for the return of mythical Atlantida Club now closed for repairs. Full in weekends, in week days always people mostly students and drunk. Sometimes very beautiful girls. Little dangerous as all Russian clubs so look around.... Good restaurant for Omsk and very cheap. You can dance take a table and drink and eat. Very usefull. As in the old style Russian clubs they stop music once or twice and they make games with people and there are slow dances too! Wonderful. In this moment the best disco in Omsk. More
