Very poor customer service staff are r… Very poor customer service staff are rude and arrogant. My whole experience was very bad from start to end it felt like I'm in a jungle not on a cruise ship. over crowded no places to sit people reserving sunloungers from early morning without using them so you can't use the facilities because it was very Crowded horrible food too. Pay a bit more and look elsewhere

MSC Cruise Line is Terrible Apart from the super-friendly and efficient staff, nothing remotely positive to say about MSC. Just finished [disembarked at Quebec City April 2,2024] segments of the MSC Poesia 2024 "Around the World" cruise [embarked at Genoa Italy Jan 5, 2024]. Changes in itinerary [beyond control of cruise line] were not compensated similar to other cruise lines [which afforded [opportunity to cancel, cash compensation, opportunity for passengers to select alternative itinerary/ports etc etc], Plus why sail through arctic waters without indoor pools/whirlpools? Little, if any, advance notice as to other last minute itinerary changes lacking valid reasons for change. Result: Too many additional days at sea. Plus "replacement ports" were mostly inferior to those ports within original itinerary. Avoid this Cruise line if at all possible!

Currently on MSC Poesia world cruise Currently on MSC Poesia world cruise. MSC Customer service has been appalling…. No response to written correspondence prior to embarkation (due to multiple itinerary route changes - some of which were due to the Red Sea conflict, others due to yellow fever, others due to, well who knows!!). Complaints made to the CS manager whilst on the ship also gone ignored. Replacement ports poor, food below standard, entertainment terrible. Currently 900 passengers have signed a petition as a result of their dissatisfaction to the sailing = 40% of the ships passengers which shows how bad it is. Threats are now being made by the ships staff (including Captain) to retract complaints, AVOID, AVOID, AVOID!!!! One saving grace is the fabulous hospitality staff on board who MSC are unbelievably lucky to have.

Overcrowded and understaffed 8 months ago my family sailed on the Meraviglia. Worst cruise I've ever been on. They fully booked the ship but didnt have the staff to accomodate. I never imagined having to wait on a 45 minute line to get a drink while on a cruise...that was the case all day, every day. The staff was miserable and stressed. The pools were awful, overcrowded to the point where it was shoulder to shoulder standing room in them all day. The overcrowding caused shortages of chairs on deck...i watched passengers physically fight over them, and obviously there was no staff in sight to break it up so it was just a free for all the entire cruise. I'll never go on a cruise again after such an awful awful vacation. I wish I could give 0 stars

Extremely poor customer service Extremely poor customer Service. It doesn’t feel like anyone there knows what they are doing, I have been told conflicting information by different members of staff and had some of the most useless and unhelpful responses I have had from any company. I would strongly advise you book your cruise with another company. I only wish I had seen some of the reviews here before I booked. Shoddy.
