I don't understand why they have you register a credit card if you still have to go to one of their machines on board to activate a card for on board payment.

Passport scanning was terrible, but I've managed to complete it playing with zoom. I started with lower page (the one with data) exactly fitted the green frame and then I was slowly moving phone closer. After a few attempts it suddenly worked.

What’s the min amount you can put on your cruise card

@drethorne 4 ай бұрын

I couldn't get my passport to scan either, also couldn't get the darn credit card to add. I kept getting an error message on the credit card when I attempted to add it. I see the CC isn't a mandatory field, so I'm not that concerned, but it was annoying that I can't do it ahead of time. I really wanted to avoid another stop on the ship when I embark. Thank you for the video, it was helpful to know what the app will do after my group completes their check-in. This will be my first cruise, and I'm a little anxious about all the unknowns. Thanks again!

@HoffmanHappyTravels 4 ай бұрын

Absolutely! So glad the video helped some! I'm sorry the process hasn't been the smoothest. MSC's App is definitely not our favorite cruise app we have used. I know it all seems a bit overwhelming but try to not sweat the small stuff, just make sure you have your travel documents and all will be well! We hope you have a great time! Thanks for watching! 🤗❤️🚢

@@HoffmanHappyTravels We had a great trip with them. It was our first cruise, so I'm really interested to compare them against other lines. Sure there were things that could be improved upon, but we had no issues at all. Do you have some favorite cruise lines you'd suggest for us to look into? (Our kids are now all 21 and older).

I have been trying to do this within my MSC app bizarrely in the credit card section it seems to take you to an external website (it doesn’t look like yours at all) and even then the card input does not work. There are NO helpline numbers or anything like that with this app so I am just stuck. Highly frustrating.
