Shiny new ship with a few very minor glitches

Review for a Baltic Sea Cruise on MSC Euribia

My review is written from the viewpoint of somebody who booked a very cheap cruise with the most basic of cabins. We boarded it at Southampton which was an absolute dream. I have never boarded a ship so quickly and with the so little fuss and the cruise line as well as the onshore team should be congratulated, We had an 11:00 a.m. boarding time and returned up. Expecting to be hanging around ...

We chose this cruise as it represented very good value and convenient from Southampton. We also liked the idea of sailing on a brand new mega ship. All in all we had an excellent time and enjoyed the facilities and service on board very much. It does get busy at times especially in the buffet restaurant but this is to be expected on a big boat and to be honest it was not that bad and we did not ...

We had sailed previously on MSC Preziosa in the Caribbean which was just a glorified bus service picking up and dropping off people at each port which we found odd as no other cruise line seems to do this. This caused congestion at every port getting on and off. The food on board was at best average and the portions in the main restaurants very small. And once the staff found out that you ...

I like MSC Cruises and I'm not a part or full time snob. I pay a fantastic price and feel you get more for what you paid to be fair. The ship is clean although slob passengers seem hell bent on wrecking the ship, mass stains on furniture etc, MSC do a great job keeping it clean and very presentable. We have been treated to excellent shows every single night, well last night was a bit ...

Done over 40 cruises over 5 cruise lines MSC up there with the best. We had 4 days of bad weather over the 7 nights even that couldn’t dampen our enjoyment. You can’t do much about the weather cruising North Europe in the winter but we had a wonderful day in Brugge as well as Hamburg. Tried to do Rouen from la Havre but got washed out on the way to the station. Already done this port ...

We generally sail the Caribbean and wanted to visit another region. We arrived at South Hampton the morning of sailing with a short 1.5 hour drive to port with plenty of time to spare (8PM sailing). The embarkation in a wheel chair was a bit cumbersome, never the less ok. We didn't partake in any of the outdoor amenities due to weather, cold and drizzling. The live entertainment was very good ...

Thoroughly disppointing

We picked this repositioning cruise to take advantage of a visit to Jordan, in particular Petra. The deal looked too inviting to resist, but how we wish we had. It all started to go downhill when we received an email from MSC at 3pm the day prior to boarding advising us that "with your safety and wellbeing in mind, we have taken the decision to slightly amend your cruise". This 'slight amendment' ...

Chose this cruise to experience luxury cruising on a budget. This cruise gave us the ability to experience small ship luxury features while still being able to access large ship entertainment, facilties and interaction with thousands of other cruisers if we wished to. We stayed in a deluxe balcony (YC1) with a front facing cabin. The Virtuosa Yacht Club is an exclusive enclave of around 160 ...

A truly terrible experience. Avoid at all costs.

If this had been my first cruise I would never cruise again. Absolutely chaotic; badly organised and just plain terrible. We arrived at the berth at our allocated boarding time of 1pm. We finally got onboard just before sailing time, 4pm. None of us had eaten since breakfast and our 8 year old was, inevitably, hungry. We boarded to find all food and drink outlets closed for the first hour for ...

Queues queues and more queues

Having done 18 cruises, I thought it would be nice to try MSC for the first time. Upon arriving by car at the dock, I have always been used to my luggage being taken from me at my car (RCI), this did not happen and we had to join a long queue to drop our bags off before entering the terminal. After dropping our bags, there were more long queues to get through security and then to check in. Have an ...
