I have personally never taken away cruise gratuities but this is good information to know. I will pass it along to my travel clients.

My first curse and would definitely recommend to everyone the staff is very helpful towards your needs the food and the entertainment is very good so much good things to name 🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲

In going on msc meraviglia on the 28th of may!

Very informative

I have many friends who are very positive about this line.

A couple of things to add.... A) Ocean Cay. Unless you are waiting 20 mins ahead of the opening of the Buffet, forget about it. You can wait up to an hour for food. B) The MSC Meraviligia is short on staff for the last 4 months. A lot of social media post (Video and pictures) of long lines at bars.

How about instead of making the world bend to YOUR needs you just either slow down YOUR video playback speed in the setting of the video on the top right hand corner or use the pause, rewind button if you are too inept to realize you can do that?

Good morning, thank you so much for your amazing videos. I’ve noticed that MSC rooms say that they are for 2 people. We are planning our 1st cruise from Florida (flying to Orlando) in July and we are a family of 4, (two adults and two teens). I wonder if they would accommodate and provide additional beds, so we could all fit. Looking at the cheapest inside rooms, as it is our fist cruise and we won’t spend much time inside and don’t want to break the bank hahah

MSC food it’s aimed at European palate. If you are use to American food with higher sugar and salt content, you will probably find the food bland. I like the food but then I find the food in America too salty and rich. It’s what you’re use to eating.

You don't have join anything just $$$ pay

We usually book with Celebrity and never need a drink package as they offer free water, juices, coffee, and tea in the buffet. If we want an occasional alcoholic beverage or specialty coffee we just pay for the individual drink. This is much more economical for us on Celebrity as we rarely drink alcohol or specialty drinks. Does MSC offer free water, juices and coffee and pay as you go specialty drinks or would we need a drink package for these basic drinks?

MSC says kids under 2 only are free

Too typical of too many large corps, ignore problems and they will go away. I was on an MSC ship a week ago and most went well but we didn't get beach towels or slippers & robes, not a big deal. Service was great in most places but food at the buffet was as good as any family restaurant and was warm at best. The restaurant food was fairly minimal, although the steak was a good size and overcooked. There is lots of money spent on looks but not substance. I also may have had my personal info stolen while attending the theatre. Not much they can do about it but be aware it can happen. They also nickel and dime you to death. The price for the tickets may easily triple with all the addons. Seems everyone is doing that now. I didn't bother with the food at Ocean Cay as I heard it was a ridiculous wait.
