Usualy, people Who are used to american company dont't like MSC that much! It's not like RC, Carnaval or NCL. MSC is an Italian company, they have there different ways!! They speak Up to 5 languages, the food is a bit different, the size of the plates, the ambiance etc... You have to be open minded, and want to try something different!!

Based on reviews, people either love or hate MSC. Which level did you purchase when booking? It seems that those that aren’t happy purchase the cheapest option, which is usually half of a similar Royal Caribbean cruise, but then are disappointed when they don’t receive the same level of service as the higher priced cruise lines.
