To comment an an earlier post, I would be leary recommending any MSC Cruise especially for a first time cruiser. MSC is an Italian based cruise line and all aspects of their operation have a heavy european influence including the people that would more likely cruise on MSC. Announcements are made in 3-4 languages and just look at Cruise Critics recommendations for individual ships.....they have have 4 stars but most MSC ships are only in the 50% range when it comes time to say "I loved it" and "Would recomend it to a friend". Thats comapred to the 70-upper 80% for main stream cruise companies like RCL, Celebrity, Holland America. MSC is not where a first time cruiser whats to be on. Even though MSC has a relatively new fleet of ships, this is a perfect example of why you donot select a ship based soley on price and port of departure.
