Just booked our first MSC cruise

My wife and I normally sail on Princess, but we were offered a great price on the new Seaside and a promise to match our loyalty level with Princess, so we decided to roll the dice.

Heck, it's only a $49 deposit, not much of a gamble.

 

So here's your chance to educate me.....

What do you LOVE about MSC!?

I'm also looking at booking my first MSC cruise on Seaside. Fantastica Suite for $1149, seems like a good deal, plus $150 OBC and free internet.

 

I also got status match, Black level for my Celebrity Elite level. But it doesn't seem like there is a Black level lounge like the other lines have, do they? Basically just 5% off and free specialty dining.

Just off Divina with Black Card Status.

Here are a few things we loved:

1. ease of embarkation, show them your paper which indicates you're BC and you're ushered right to the front of the line, for us that was behind one other couple. There's no need for a lounge since they don't keep you waiting.

 

2. the officers were so friendly and very willing to hear your feedback

 

3. the beautiful design of the ship along with the plentiful and spacious public areas.

 

4. the wait staff

 

5. the ease of the disembarkation. just wait your turn and it's as smooth as anything.

 

6. ours was a holiday cruise and you couldn't beat the price... at least 50% less than most other lines

 

I'm sure I could go on and on but don't want to bore you :p

 

Go with an open mind and you'll have a great time just as we did.

 

Cheers,
