This is the second time that my partner and I have bought Fly-Cruise packages for Transatlantic cruise from MSC - But never again.
MSC does not allow any flexibility on your flight arrangements and therefore you have no personal time to enjoy the destination prior to boarding the cruise.
Our experience of Miami a couple of years back was simply a bus ride from airport to seaport, and even ...
Some poor reviews and left me with what turned out to be unfounded concerns about to expect on this cruise.
Our embarkation went like clockwork as did pretty much everything else on the cruise. We had a mini suite on Deck 12 and it was fantastic. The balcony was more than adequate for two people, our bed was comfortable and tonnes of storage. Everything very clean throughout the ship. Our ...
My wife and I have sailed on MSC Fantasia and MSC Splendida which are the biggest ships flying the MSC flag and decided at Easter15 to have a week in Santa Cruz, Tenerife and a weeks cruise on the newly refurbished MSC Armonia sailing the Canaries and up to Casablanca.
Looking at other reviews there is a real mixed bag of good and bad re MSC.
We had fantastic cruises on Fantasia and ...
Travelling as a solo passenger, I have just returned from a cruise to the Canary Islands and Morocco with MSC Armonia. We usually sail with Thompson but the MSC cruise seemed a cheaper option as there is little no single supplement surcharge. Here are my thoughts and impressions.
The ship and services
After its recent upgrade I found the ship to be well maintained and modern. My cabin (an inside ...
We have just returned from a 7 day cruise on the MSC Armonia from Gran Canaria. The cruise embarkation actually begins in Tenerife and sails to the Canary Islands and Morrocco. The ship is very clean and all of the public areas are well maintained and comfortable. Our cabin 9125 was of a good size and very well furnished with comfortable bedding including a duvet. The bathroom towels were changed ...
After many cruises on the Fantasia Class and Musica Class of MSC Cruises we this time booked the much smaller MSC Armonia for our winter getaway. We were very excited about the refurbishment and lengthening of ship and was looking forward to the cruise to Morocco and the Canary Island. We booked the new balcony cabin category and had the cheers drinkpackage included.
Very smooth and easy ...
I must admit was a bit wary about going on a MSC cruise after reading views therefore went with an open mind which I am glad I did as it exceeded my expectations.
We are a couple in our 40s and 50s and this was our 8th cruise having cruised Royal caribbean, Celebrity and Thomson previously. Everything was organised by our travel agent Barbara from cruise.co.uk including flights, hotels and ...
we have been on 46. Cruises before this one,embarkation was very good,the first shock came with the cabin,the ship had a section added to the centre of the ship in November,we where allocated a NEW cabin in this section,the wardrobe is 18 wide,my wife managed to get some of her dresses hung in the space,but there was no room to hang any other clothes,my formal night wear was left in our suitcase ...
Sailed with great friends, it was my 60th birthday surprise to my delight.
Had to write this review in defence of negative comments that I have read.
Everything was first class, food in the Pergola restaurant was equal to if not better than the more expensive cruise liners that we have cruised with.
The service was excellent, second to none, nothing was too much trouble for them, any request ...
1st let me give you the good points about this ship, it has been re-modernized and is a lovely ship to look at but i'm afraid that's it.
Now for the bad, We have been on many different cruise lines in the past and have to say that this is the worst by a country mile, the reception staff are unhelpful and struggle to speak English or choose not to understand you,There was a permanent queue of ...
