Now I donโ€™t want to give the impression that MSC is completely different from sailing any other line. If youโ€™ve sailed a cruise before, thereโ€™s a lot that youโ€™ll know and love. However, itโ€™s the details surrounding life onboard that might stand out if youโ€™re used to some of the other lines in U.S. cruising. Here's what I wish I knew before I sailed.
