YouTube Video Description

AD - I’m currently onboard one of the biggest and most exciting cruise ships in the world, staying in a luxury ship within a ship area that only 5% of guests onboard have access to. Wonder what that's like? I'll show you everything in this video. I’ve been cruising since I was a child, this is my 8th MSC cruise, but this trip has blown my mind in so many ways. Before this, I really had no idea what to expect from the luxury ship concept, as I normally cruise as cheaply as possible. I knew I always wanted to try it but had no idea what the benefits would be or if this way of cruising would suit me at all. The reality was not what I expected and I was surprised by new things every day. *** Use code 'EMMA10' to get 10% off MSC Cruises booked before the end of the year!! 10% is an incredibleeeeee discount, so please don't miss out.

I really felt like an undercover budget cruiser but I was determined to find out what all the hype was about so that I could share it with you here. From the moment I set foot in the terminal it was very obvious that this cruise would be different, our cabin came with the perk of priority boarding. I was expecting perhaps just to join a shorter line but once we introduced ourselves to the crew member at the special tent, he took our bags and called over another staff member who said he would escort us through the terminal. I’ve never been escorted anywhere in my life, and it was so much fun. Weird for sure, but fun. We didn’t have to wait at any point and only very briefly took a break for a glass of champagne in a special area in the terminal. That one is optional of course but I thought why not, if I’m going to experience this properly, I should try everything. The staff gave us our cruise cards and MSC wristbands and they even put mine on my wrist for me. That really was a sign of things to come but at this point I had no idea what the week would be like. ▶ FREE COURSE.
