We just got off the Magica Sunday 12/03/06. We did the 7-day Eastern. We had a good time. I will say this was our 3rd cruise on Costa and we like it the least. But it still was a good cruise. I will rate the ship with a A, B, C, D or E letter grade. A being excellent, B good, C as average, D poor and E horrible.

In college I had an English professor who told us not to expect A's because a were for excellent work and most of us were just average people so expect  C's then we would all be happy and not disappointed.

Embarkation get a D. It took us 2 hours to board. We got to the ship at 12:30 and were on the ship at 3:30. They needed more people working check in. Read more
