Creator's Key Takeaways

I've had some gripes with the quote unquote smart elevators on MSSE ships, but honestly on the world America, they did a really, really good job.

I would give this 10 stars.

I personally think that the MSC Arya Spa is one of the best spas at sea.

I'm really disappointed by that action. Really am.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Arrive a little later to avoid traffic and get right on board.
Find someone on the first ship to make friends with to get their seats when they leave.
Stay on board on port days to enjoy the spa and avoid crowds.
Buy the all-you-can-eat package before the cruise for a cheaper price.
