MY FIRST MSC CRUISE - Embarkation (Where It All Started To Go Bad)

Editorial Summary

The creator documents his first experience with MSC Cruises aboard the MSC Divina, departing from Port Canaveral for a three-day voyage. He begins by describing the embarkation process, noting a quick check-in at the pier. Upon entering his balcony stateroom, he observes the room's design and the ship's electronic systems. The creator expresses frustration with the muster drill process, criticizing the decision to have all passengers attend their stations simultaneously despite pandemic social distancing goals. He also notes that the ship's app is not compatible with the vessel. During the cruise, he utilizes a one hundred dollar onboard credit to try the ninety nine dollar Chef's Table experience at Butcher's Cut steakhouse. While he enjoys the seafood platter and the lava cake dessert, he concludes that the overall meal was not worth the full price without the credit due to inconsistent service and mediocre steak quality. The video concludes with the ship arriving at Ocean Cay, the MSC private island, during rainy weather.
