We Try MSC Cruises Again After 3 Years

Editorial Summary

The creators return to MSC Cruises for the first time in three years to evaluate if the company has improved following a previously disastrous experience. Boarding the new MSC World Europa, they explore the ship's massive scale, modern design, and various amenities including the Galleria, the Panorama Lounge, and the onboard aqua park. The creators provide a detailed breakdown of their experiences with different ship elements, noting that while the ship feels upscale and glamorous, certain areas can become overcrowded. They specifically highlight the high quality of the crew and the exceptional value for money compared to major competitors like Royal Caribbean. However, they express dissatisfaction with the onboard entertainment, describing it as dated, and note issues with smoking in certain indoor areas. Their assessment of the food is mixed, with the buffet described as chaotic and overwhelming, though specific items like the pizza and specialty coffee received praise. Ultimately, the creators conclude that while the cruise line has not changed in every aspect, their overall impression has shifted from fear to a willingness to return due to the improved service and affordability.
