Review summary

Don't ever use the cruise line.. carnival is even better than this mess. We were at least 2 hours late to each port and they did not extend our excursions at all and we can screwed on each excursion and only gave us 10% off when we lost sometimes 40-50% of the excursion time... just awful! .

Its alway funny that one experience gives someone a good view of the whole company. Try it again you might be surprised. I have been on a few cruises with different companies. In Europe and the caribean. Nothing wrong with MSC. HAL is probably better. But that is what you pay for.

You did not give details as to why the cruise was late to the Ports. Was it weather , medical emergency, etc. As far as giving extra time, if they were to do that you would probably miss out on a port completely.

I can totally understand the excursion frustration. Part of the cost justification is time doing the activity. Time cut equals less enjoyment time, less satisfaction.
