Service and Staff

The customer service on the World Europa actually rivaled my #1 overall favorite cruise line! MSC is moving on up on my list due to great value and much improved dining experience and customer service.

Ship Quality

5 out of 5
The World Europa is simply an outstanding behemoth of a ship, it seems to have taken some good notes from both Royal Caribbean and Carnival and created this new stunning class of ship.

Cabin / Stateroom

I was very impressed with the comfort, style and cleanliness of my cabin. My cabin attendant Rivo Harimanana was on point and took care of my every need kindly and efficiently!

As nice as the balcony cabin was, you can definitely get away an ocean view cabin since on this Mediterranean cruise, you hardly have any time the take advantage of having a balcony.
