Service is wonderful, ship is tired/old, food is abysmal, pre-cruise communication is impossible.

Review for a Middle East Cruise on MSC Opera

I've cruised on numerous cruise lines and would likely never choose MSC again. Crew is friendly and works so hard - I honestly felt bad for them! They are understaffed, their managers are rude to them (yelling, snapping -- in front of customers?! Appalling.) Staff aren't given streamlined processes and it shows. (Mostly at the bars - unnecessarily crazy for servers and bartenders) Ship ...

I expected high class service and the guest being treated as very well. 1) our anniversary date and my food allergy we annouced by booking.. The information Was not sent through to the organisation at the ship. Just a sorry from the hostess.. But nothing else was. Being organised 2) In a restaurant i asked a waiter for some extra butter for the bread... His responsed very short and rude: I ...

We selected this cruise as it called at ports we wanted to visit particularly Oman. Sadly, the war put an end to 4 out of 8 ports of call. Whilst we appreciate this was unfortunate & understood, we were not offered any acceptable alternatives as we had paid for business class flights to Dubai so cancelling was not an option. Also, if you cancelled you lost 25% of the amount paid & the remaining ...

Firstly I’ve no idea why so many poor reviews and not great reviews in abundance . We’ve been on a fair number of cruises , this is first time with msc . We booked a suite class (yatch club) as we often do on cruise ships .. The service was excellent , standards across the ship were very good . The staff across the ship were friendly and helpful. I agree with some reviews that say some team were ...

My partner and I chose this cruise based on Oceania's tag line "Best cuisine in the sea", or words to that effect. Twenty days on the ship and it was downhill from day two. The problem was the food. It was not just us, but practically every other passenger we spoke to, We have cruised on other lines, Cunard, Celebrity, Holland America, Windstar and have never been disappointed with the ...

This was our 5th Silversea Cruise and we choose it for the Itinerary. First time on the Spirit, embarkation was good, cabin great as usual. The problems started when because of Jet Lag we woke up at 3am, no internet or Tv working. This went on for 3 days. I even asked if we could move cabins and was asked" why is TV so important to you?" Wowzers, Wasnt expecting that..I said its not important ...

This was our 21st cruise. Having sailed before with Princess, Celebrity and Cunard. We chose this cruise firstly for the itinerary and secondly for the fact that this was supposed to be a luxury cruise. We searched and searched and could not find the luxury that was supposed to be aboard this vessel. In fact what we found was a ship in need of modernising and updating. The ships overall ...

We were VERY disappointed with many aspects of our recent cruise from Dubai to Singapore. From what I understand there has been a huge amount of negative feedback about many aspects of this cruise by other passengers on Social Media. Boarding in Dubai We arrived at the port just before 1.00 but didn’t board until around 5.00. We got thru the Dubai immigration in less than half an ...
