I'll be on Aqua in September. I'm aware of all the criticisms of the other Prima class ships so my enthusiasm is tempered. I think I'll try Princess next. I'm still hesitant about trying MSC out of NY because I've seen a bunch of bad reviews. Looking forward to seeing your content on the Meraviglia.
Have 2 NCL cruises booked for 2025 including the Aqua May 31. In 2026 I’m branching out with a Princess to Hawaii in February because of my dissatisfaction over the loss of FAS+.
I'm a MSC fan too but even their prices are going up drastically lately. Though their prices were still low until they pushed these black Friday deals that actually raised the prices. Nothing like Royal which i think has priced me out. I've also been on two Virgin. 8 nights and 4 nights as recently as September. Vibe was chill and grown on both and didn't see anything crazy.
We are doing our first ever cruise with MSC in Feb 2025 on Seashore! We are super excited. We looked into Royal and was priced out with how expensive it was! Plus Coco Cay doesn’t seem like my vibe.
We are not booking Royals new ships , too much money for our budget. The base cost, plus added extras is too much. I think they are stealing Disney business some too
Going on the Aqua in September. Cannot wait to see this ship. Looking forward to a great cruise.
Agree with all of your comments re NCL.

Hope you have an amazing time
Maybe it's time those CEO's take some pay cuts so we can all cruise more. I used to be able to go more often. It's getting crazy.
