Review summary
MSC with their amenities and loyalty program recogniition will soon eat RCL's lunch !! Our back to back cruise - MSC to RCL, really highlighted the differences and how much more we could get for our Suite Class room money over RCL. If your booking a cruise you should definately consider MSC . If you are all about good quality production shows, RCL is the way to go,Embarkation
