Review summary

This was our first MSC cruise and our travel agent had never been on or any of our friends, so we where guinea pigs! We should have let someone tried it out instead of us! A week of work vacation was used up, unexpected charges and FLL airport was no piece of cake!

Main dining room,after the first night, out was sit yourself! Buffets was the same everyday and wasn't good! French fries and pizza was alright, chocolate cafe was good,didn't find it until the last day! Patricia a waitress at the bar was amazing(5th floor, I think) she talked us into upgrading the drink package to premier,

It’s always a good idea to research before booking. MSC is a European cruise line and has different levels of service. Those that book the Yacht Club seem to enjoy it. Many seem to book the cheapest price, then are disappointed when they don’t get the top-level experience.
