Embarkation: As this was a repositioning cruise, passengers embarked at multiple locations during the cruise: Marseille, Genoa, Valencia and possibly other ports. We embarked at Genoa and, in part due to not being a full ship changeover, it was a quick process. Ship: MSC Poesia was a nice ship. Built in 2008, it does not have a Yacht Club section. Two main Dining Rooms and one ...

We chose this cruise due interesting itinerary, but foods, wines, front recepcion atention, were very low quality and manufacturing.

A course of " "cocido a española", was a stew , a steak was a ...

First Time Cruiser • Age 70s

I started to cruise in 1965 with Home Lines on the SS Oceanic. It was just a week's cruise to the Bahamas, but it was the start of a love affair that went on for many many years. After Home Lines retired, I tried Pacquet Line on the MV Renaissance on a fabulous 3 week cruise out of Los Angeles and through the Panama Canal down into South America and ending up in Ft. Lauderdale. Next came ...

Booked 2 balcony suites on the Atlantic cruise from Ft.L to Barcelona March 6 to March 22.We did not expect luxury when boarding M/S Poesia, even the vessel is new in the fleet.2 weeks in the same restaurant at the same table, with the same waiters, looking at the same guests around you is not recommendable. MSCs promotion of the Fantastic Italian Cuisine was very difficult to see. There were two ...

MSC POESIA, Kiel to New York, September 2010 Background I have deliberately left it a few weeks after disembarking to post anything because I didn't want to write simply on impulse. To avoid it influencing my opinions, I have also left it until the last few days to read some of the other reviews and posts here about MSC in general, and about Poesia in particular. We were a party of four ... ...
