    Nice video series. Very helpful and informative. We sailed to Bermuda out of Brooklyn on MSC last month. It was our first cruise ever, and we were VERY disappointed! The MSC staff and crew were incredibly disorganized. The food - both main dining room and buffet - was awful! I had veal osso buco that was so over cooked that it was rock hard and I had difficulty identifying the meat from the bone. Quite frankly, the food at our local QSRs is much better than the food in the main dining room on the Meraviglia. Can’t imagine what it was like for you with the pools and pool decks closed due to the weather. With the VERY LIMITED television programming available (4 or 5 channels), you can’t even wait out the weather in your room by catching something good on the tv. And the promenade is just a gaudy shopping mall designed to separate you from your hard-earned money. All-in-all, we were very disappointed with the experience and wouldn’t ever consider sailing with MSC again. In fact, I’m skeptical about sailing with other cruise lines as a result of our experience on the Meravigli.

      We would suggest taking all of the things that interested you in taking a cruise and try a completely different cruise line! Forget MSC! It’s definitely worth another shot elsewhere!

    Before the Covid shutdown, my Brother and I took our families on a HAL cruise of Norway that started and ended in Amsterdam. We were on the MS Prinsendam shortly before it left the HAL fleet. There were some 600+ passengers on the ship. We visited with our cousins and two Aunts in the Oslo area and meet up with a cousin in Trondheim. It had been a while since I had visited Norway. Sounds like you had a "fun" time getting to Southampton.

    I'm curious about the status match. Did they only status match one of you? Or did both of you get the perks? Looked like only one of you went to the spa. I have top status with Hilton & Hyatt. Will use one of them to match to the top MSC status, curious if my partner also gets benefits or not.

    • @OnaCruisewithWilandStephen
      @OnaCruisewithWilandStephen Місяць тому

      Good observation. One of us is more of a spa person than the other however regarding the status match, there was a bit of a mix up and it did not get applied until we were on board and went to guest services to activate it. Unfortunately, one of us (no names mentioned) did not get their status match submitted in time so it didn’t get applied on this sailing. Based on our experience, the status match did not carryover to the sailing partner, despite being in the same cabin. I’d inquire specifically regarding your status match as that part was not overly clear. Thanks for watching!

Then I’ll have Cruises on carnival on an older ship and on a Royal Caribbean ship in December. by the end of this, I’ll know which line I like, the MSC Cruises are certainly the best value, but I’m sure all these lines are very different

    I’ve been watching a variety of MSC videos as I prepare for my first one with them. I’ve done a few cruises with three different lines, but until recently it’s mainly been ferries for me, including overnight ones. Of the three other lines I’ve been on, I’ve decided which one contains ‘my people’, which I’m not expecting MSC to be, but I worked in Europe for a year and the best reference I’ve found regarding complaints, is people not thinking about costs and expecting five star service as a one star price. Ok, not that bad but…the other is that MSC is an Italian cruise line that has only recently entered the USA market, and from what I hear the Brooklyn terminal, at least in current configuration is also relatively new, and so expectations, both by staff and passengers doesn’t always align. I enjoyed your honest review, and acknowledging one specific trip.
