Creator's Key Takeaways

I'm excited to try out MSC for the very first time. So, we're going to find out together.

I love that MSC does status match and I think more cruise lines should follow their example.

The sushi restaurant was spectacular. Five out of five stars.

The lighthouse was a blast. Love doing that.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Go and visit your muster station as soon as you board.
Make sure your status match tier is correctly assigned when boarding MSC as a status match guest.
Pre-purchase excursions in the app for a lower price.
Bring your key card and driver's license when getting off the ship.
