Creator's Key Takeaways

I was invited on board by MSC. They're one of our partners.

The food was excellent. The Indulge food hall concept was my favorite.

Navigating the ship was really weird. There was no flow.

MSC World America is for everyone. It's a big beautiful ship on a budget.

Creator's Tips & Advice

βœ“Book specialty dining early on MSC World America.
βœ“Sit in the general area of Indulge Food Hall on Norwegian Aqua to order from all stations.
βœ“Go to the spa on the first day of Norwegian Aqua for a raffle and potential deals.

πŸ†•New to Cruising? This Creator Addresses:

Getting lost on a large ship β€” On MSC World America, it may take a few days to orient yourself; use signage and directories.
Noise from pool deck affecting cabin β€” On Norwegian Aqua, avoid cabins directly below the pool deck if you are a light sleeper.
