In this video, we'll share our top reasons why MSC Cruises are a must-try for any traveler looking for a luxurious and memorable Caribbean cruise. From their amazing food to their impeccable service, MSC Cruises has it all! So what are you waiting for? Book your trip today and see for yourself!
We sailed MSC cruise lines with our big family and grandparents. We love cruising and enjoying the all inclusive treatment cruising offers. While there are many options when choosing a cruise line: MSC cruise lines, Carnival Cruise Lines, Holland America Cruise Line, Virgin Voyages, Celebrity Cruise Line, Princess Cruise Line, Royal Caribbean, NCL (Norwegian Cruise LIne) and Disney Cruise Line. The list is long and we have only been on three at this time, but we have a very good grasp on what to expect as a big family.
This particular cruise was an MSC 7 night cruise on the MSC SeaSide, a newer and luxurious ship. We left out of Port Canaveral in September. Let us know in the comments what your ranking might be. We chose this over a 3 night cruise as we really don’t feel that gives us the overall value for our money since we have to travel from the Midwest to the port which is an additional cost.
We have traveled the world and around the entire US and have many tips for travelers who travel on a budget. Please be sure to subscribe to our channel for future videos.

Thanks for giving a more realistic review of MSC. We were on Seascape in mid December 2023, and had a wonderful time. No variety of food in the buffet? How could anybody eat that many things over the course of a week? It was absolutely huge. The food, drinks, and service were all great, both buffet and dining room. The coffee at the buffet was superb, and it was ready very early in the morning for those of us who are early risers. I agree with some that embarking and disembarking could have been done with better instructions, but it made sense in hindsight. The only negative was that they lost one of my wife's bags somewhere between our room and where we picked them up off the ship. MSC did eventually find it and shipped it to our home. Finally, for the life of me I don't know why some reviewers say they have trouble understanding the elevators. They're easy to understand and operate. While on the ship we booked another cruise with MSC for next year.

We love MSC! Beautiful ships, great food and entertainment... I've noticed the bad reviews come from narrow-minded people complaining about multiple lamguages spoken on board (I guess it comes as a shock to them to find out there are other languages than English!); the food (awesome Mediterranean food) and thanks God waiters and bartenders don't feel it's mandatory to annoy you with their attention. Get speedily what you have ordered and avoid unnecessary conversations Americans are so find of!

We love MSC and always cruise in the Yacht Club. We had similar misgivings before our first MSC cruise back in 2015. We were coming from Disney and we too were looking for a more economical cruise vacation option because Disney's prices were going through the roof. Once we found the Yacht Club, we never left and are now Diamond cruisers with MSC Cruises USA!

We've done 4 MSC cruises now and #5 at the end of the month. We too heard a bunch of negatives in review, but don't experience that ourselves. I've got to assume that the American cruises and the European ones must be different and the European ones must be where the negativity is.

On my trip in the MSC Meravigilia they announced everyone to get off the ship suddenly. I understand it may have been for some safety reason, but they would not explain what was happening and proceeded to have everyone sit out in a port for 4-5 hours with no food or water bottles. Security staff were yelling and cursing, people had to sit on the dirty floor when seats were taken. A woman was so stressed out that they didn’t let her change the baby’s diaper so she threw it on the floor. The least they could’ve done is told us to bring something comfortable to wear or hand out water

Really enjoy sailing on MSC. Safe yourself the time, wait to register your card. We waited till the last day, on the Meraviglia last month. 😁. No line😂. Wait till later the first night. Very international so be ready for different norms. If people bother you, book yacht club, really isn't that expensive compared to other lines.

@jeremyreeve5798
@jeremyreeve5798 7 месяцев назад
Interesting your experience for adding your credit card to your room on boarding. Your key/room card is ready to use straight away and you are normally then given 48 hours after sailing to visit the self service machines to do this, which does mean there is then rarely a wait since you can do it anytime over the 48 hours and this does speed things up on check-in as it's one less process. We have done 10+ MSC cruises and really enjoy them, but as a Brit I am probably more used to the 'European' vibe on their ships. The one thing US guests we have met seem to struggle with is the food portion size, over here we all think you guy's eat too much anyway, but you can always ask for another food course and the buffet is open 20+ hours a day if you need a couple of pizza slices as a top up! You cannot beat MSC for value, you just have to consider what you paid and maybe adjust expectations accordingly.
@travelthenrepeat

@kimberlyemerson2754
@kimberlyemerson2754 2 месяца назад
Main reason I don’t like MSC is that they normally don’t have any other complimentary food option beside main dining and buffet. Hours are more restrictive with food as well. There are often times when there is no food available. Can’t believe they wouldn’t have a burger stand, sandwich shop, taco stand …..Sometjing!

There were 4,200 people on board our recent cruise and we felt like we had plenty of room to ourselves. I believe there's potential for an October cruise to have more passengers due to Fall break in mid to late October.

Did I understand you right when you said Exter entrée would cost five dollars or was that just for lobster or something else so each extra Andre meaning your second would cost five dollars is that right?
@travelthenrepeat
@travelthenrepeat 8 месяцев назад
That's correct. If you want a 2nd entrée it is $5, which oftentimes is free on other lines. A premium entrée like lobster is $20, but from our experience is well worth the extra expense due to their generous portion.
