Go to the specialty restaurant for reservations if you don’t see the time you want in the app. Also reservations for the teppanyaki restaurant has to be made in person.

If you are picky about food, I would not sail with MSC.

Check behind them to look for extra added fees.

The Meraviglia attracts a lot of Europeans especially French and Italians. You will need to have plenty of patience as they can be rude and have no concept of personal space.

Reserve your shows with your on board card early.

Go with an open mind! You will have a wonderful time...just realize that MSC is not run like the other lines out of American ports...so don't assume. Ask questions and make sure you understand how their systems work.

Don’t. They hide the fact they many people are sick.

Be open to the international flair of this cruise- the food, shows, the passengers on board. Don’t sweat the small stuff

Don’t pay too much attention to the negative reviews and let them cloud your experience.

Rude passengers

There are no Aft elevators for passengers. Cabins in the last two sections must walk to mid-ship elevators.

I see on Cruise Critic that someone received a notice from MSC that a person on our sailing tested positive for Coronavirus. We never received such an email. My advice is to go on the MSC Meraviglia if you like long stretches of boredom and sketchy sanitization.

If you are used to an USA like service be prepared to lower your expectation. They are still lacking on that part. It is clearly à European one with less customer caring. BUT you will be totally satisfied if you book a suite in the yacht club

We had read that MSC cruises caters to an older, more sedate crowd. Our cruise was totally overrun with kids who weren't especailly weel-behaved. If someone is looking for a refined, sedate crusing experience, the Meraviglia is not it!

Be ready for a different cruise culture than Royal Caribbean.

Take the advantage of the speciality dining package. $138.00 per person for 4 restaurants. Experience the Yacht Club!

Enjoy the ship and come with an open mind. This ship is large and very clean. The buffet is good so just eat and enjoy.
