Creator's Key Takeaways

We loved this cruise. We loved pretty much everything about this cruise.

MSC has the best pizza at sea from all the ships that I have been on across the different cruise lines I have been on.

This is amazing to see in person. Wow.

I may have a new favorite cruise ship. Yeah, MSC World America.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Book your shows in the MSC for me app as soon as you get on board.
Make reservations for the thermal spa on sea days, even if you have a pass.
Consider booking tours through Viator for a percentage off your next tour.
When at Ocean Key, buy umbrellas on the ship beforehand to avoid them selling out on the island.
Download the ship's app before boarding to plan activities and book shows.
