Hi Folks!
We depart from Port Canaveral on 10/29 to the Western Caribbean including Cozumel. This is our new web page for the cruise. We will keep this page up to date with everything so you don’t need to find the latest email.
Update 10/24, 5 Days And Counting
- Now is the time to install the MSC for Me app.
- Use it for a virtual check-in
- Plan your fun time,
- Book your favorite activities, dining reservations, excursions
- Track all of your expenditures.
ABOUT PARKING
Our plan is to drop people, wheel chairs and luggage at the terminal, then the drivers will go park the cars and return via shuttle to the terminal. You can book a reservation for parking in advance.
- These things really work! Rosellen setup a discount with Booze Bandage. Not that we are a bunch of boozers, but it is nice to have your land-legs under you at all times!

Update 9/15 Booking Excursions
Our travel agent has recommended that instead of booking excursions via the cruise line or on our own, she will recommend reputable independent charters. She isn’t receiving any compensation for this. Please take a look at these links and message Rosellen if something looks especially interesting to you. We will try to assemble a group (s) for a private tour.
We have arranged for everyone in our party to have the early dining seating. We will take an entire big table plus another next door. If you would prefer a different dining option Please let Dawn know when you make your final payment.
If you have not booked a room yet, please email Dawn Ohl (our travel agent) ASAP at [email protected]. Please mention Rosellen’s Family Cruise and give her your full legal name and complete birthdate. We cannot make final booking with a TBD person. This is the time to switch to single or buddy up.
We are arranging a special gathering where we can connect, visit, and take group pictures. There may also be a Halloween celebration involving costumes. Stay tuned for those details!
Passports
If you don’t have a passport, you CAN just bring your legal picture ID like a Drivers License plus a birth certificate.
Travel and Transportation
Please let Rosellen know your travel plans. We are looking into carpooling from our house to the port to limit the expense of parking. Uber is a good option. We do have some room for people to stay at our house and nearby hotels too.
The deadline above it to finalize our group at the rates advertised. Until the sailing date, we can still add people. We would dearly love to add your family and or friends. Please help spread the word!
