Just got an email from Cruise Critic, MSC Seaside, inside cabin sailing from Miami, stops in Bahamas, Puerto Rico and SXM, $429 a person for a week!! 3/31/18 sailing. Don't know anything about that cruise line, but boy that's cheap for a 7 day cruise!

Great for you Florida people with flexible schedules. Huh? Since it is a month away it would be pretty easy for people in other parts of the country to get to FL for this cruise. A lot of cruises depart from Miami/Ft. Lauderdale and they are not just for "Florida people".

I guess it was that Florida people might not have to fly, and thus saving that money.

True, but one has to get where the ship departs from one way or another.
BTW, just had a message from a friend who spent the day on SXM today via a cruise. They had been there before and enjoyed some speed boat excursion but she said the devastation was unbelievable.

I have two friends who just returned from a cruise on MSC and said they were not impressed. Would not choose a cruise with that line again for various reasons. Cleanliness was a big problem.

What is included in that price? I wonder how much the alcohol, soda, juice and coffee packages are per day per person? I wonder hw much the mandatory gratuity is per day per person? I find that when the base price is low everything else is expensive.
