I also got that good MSC upfront comp offer. Has anyone done one of these, and what if you stiff them or play lightly. When I asked about play required of one independent host the amount of play was ridiculously high, but I do not know if that is true when they say pre-comp or not.
Our recent Royal Caribbean cruise through independent host Shem Collins did not have any specific play requirements. Hubby and I each had cabins, and my husband essentially played nothing, and no one seemed to care. I did play, and ended up getting enough points that Royal Caribbean is now sending me direct casino offers. I will be posting more about my cruise soon.
