Creator's Key Takeaways

MSE's pizza is fantastic. It's the best. It's my favorite pizza of the cruise lines.

The chairs are uncomfortable as hell. I swear to God, I about fell over trying to get out of them or cuz I fell into them every time.

The biggest weakness is kind of two things. Um, they kind of go hand in hand. Um, it needs a dry dock. And if they did a dry dock, they really needed to they really need to add some included dining.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Ditch the luggage once on board since you get your key card in the terminal; you can swing by your room to drop it off even if the room isn't ready.
Book specialty dining reservations ahead of time to ensure availability.
Use the elevator passenger count button so the elevator knows how many people are in your party.
Grab an empanada or a snack in the atrium at the Seaside Bar.
