My partner and i have just returned from this cruise which was our second cruise with MSC and i totally agree with your comments, you get what you pay for and we were more than happy, deck 11 lovely cabin woke up to the sun on the balcony every morning, prestine clean and our cabin steward was very attentive. Heard lots of grumbling from the older uk generation, MSC is Italian so if you want steak and kidney pud for lunch go with P&O and be prepared to pay their prices. We had a lovely time reallygood value for money and by the way most of the cost of the holiday goes to the airlines, MSC gets about £30.00 per day per person need i say more. We will use MSC again so Bonne Voyage! Italian style.

MSC=Alfa Romeo? Don't you mean VW Camper Van?

You must have been on a different cruise to us or maybe you are shareholders with MSC. worse cruise have ever been on food cold staff rude. We are not hard to please or moaners or snobs but we went to a holiday camp recently for a long weekend and can say that food and entertainment were far superior to the Musica.

We as people like to be treated with respect, doesn't matter what you pay for a cruise. We did not appreciate being dropped off in the middle of nowhere on a Sunday morning with poor people sleeping in the streets,and as you well know some passengers were threatened with physical violence and robbed and as you say you must be on another universe!!! There were only 30 English people on board and think you will find at least 80% of the passengers were not happy. ALL nationalities. We save hard all year for our holidays and we were not shouting and moaning like most non Brits. We were ALL VERY lucky not to have gone down with food poisoning as 95% of the food WAS COLD OR LUKE WARM maybe you were one of the few who got their own way because they were so rude to the staff and other passengers!!!! It was not a pleasant experience. Our Australian cabin neighbour cut her tongue on glass in her food and was accused of putting it there herself! The laundry managed to 'lose' two very good shirts of my husbands and shrink the rest and we certainly hope that we never have the pleasure of sailing with people like you again, you just have to read how condecending you are in your write up!!
