Creator's Key Takeaways

We are so excited to be back from our MSC cruise. A little scouting trip.

We definitely will sell with MSC again.

The prices are really good right now.

Ocean K, absolutely loved it. Can't wait to go back.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Try to book specialty dining packages before the cruise for the best price.
Go to a specialty dining restaurant as soon as you board to make reservations.
Bring your own hair dryer and tissues, as cabin amenities are limited.
Give yourself plenty of time for traffic when driving to Port Canaveral.

Documentation requirements (passport vs. ID)For closed-loop cruises from the US, a state-issued ID and birth certificate are acceptable, but information on the MSC website is unclear.
Luggage weight and size limitsGuidelines are listed but not strictly enforced; be reasonable to avoid issues.
