Aussie Jeep Posted June 16, 2022 #1 Share Posted June 16, 2022 Hi Cruisers, Once this board was a hive of activity, now virtually nothing. Is anyone cruising? No one is posting WOuld love to hear about current experiences (especially on Magnifica and Armonia as they are my next two cruises) Have a great day.

dexddd Posted June 17, 2022 #2 Share Posted June 17, 2022 MSC boards were never super busy even when they entered the US Market. Gradually picked up some more folks. Shut down, nothing. Things have picked back up here but yeah, not as many people traveling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Markanddonna Posted June 18, 2022 #4 Share Posted June 18, 2022 I noted that Facebook groups are becoming more popular now. On our last RCL TA, I'd say the FB group was more active. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well my friend they are cruising, we sat having coffee on the Riva Split Croatia yesterday after buying some wonderful Langoustines for dinner. The Armonia disgorged a good few pax. https://slobodnadalmacija.hr/split/sezona-u-splitu-opasno-se-zahuktava-znamo-i-koliko-ce-ljudi-ovoga-vikenda-proci-kroz-resnik-iz-jadrolinije-javljaju-pod-pritiskom-smo-od-srijede-uvodimo-izvanredne-linije-1201789 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Znjan Posted June 19, 2022 #6 Share Posted June 19, 2022 NB the pic above is RCL. Unfortunately only MSC Armonia does walk on's from Split. We have never sailed MSC but to me the deals here seem cheap. I was after some "horses mouth" advice but it appears the stable door is bolted.

belugos Posted June 19, 2022 #7 Share Posted June 19, 2022 Just came back after a 8 days cruise on the Seaview, out of Marseille... and the ship was PACKED! It honestly felt pretty much like we were back in 2018. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe it's because of the pandemic? We were booked on a cruise last year but changed it for this year. It's now changed to next year because we won't cruise until we feel that there is no risk that we will have to wear masks on the ship.

Capricruiser Posted June 21, 2022 #9 Share Posted June 21, 2022 We were on Magnifica last month for the cruise around Ireland and Scotland. The ship was packed primarily with Germans. No Yacht Club of course, but we had an Aurea suite with the My Choice dining. The restaurant food and service was not great, but the self-service buffet for breakfast and lunch was excellent. The captain was Giacomo Romano and the Hotel Director Tiziana Sorrentino. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheers We just booked the Mera for Nov 20th sailing! Have only sailed Seaside & Seaside EVO Class ships on MSC thus far, so excited to explore the Meraviglia Class ships! Planning on Divina out of Rome next July, another first for us on MSC, finally sailing Europe (becoming empty nesters).

dexddd Posted June 22, 2022 #14 Share Posted June 22, 2022 Well, I'm not a big FB fan but when I do go seems the MSC thread pops up. Mostly misinformed askers and repliers. The folks here mostly have the rare details. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare jcathers1 Posted June 22, 2022 #15 Share Posted June 22, 2022 It does seem much quieter than it did in 2019, which was when we last cruised. I asked some questions on a few Port of Call boards a few weeks back and never got any replies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
