Does anyone know when Summer 2026 bookings will open for MSC World Europa? Thanks in advance.

I got my Son's (10) done in January and it took exactly 3 weeks to the day.

I’ve ordered filet in the YC twice this week, both times medium rare. Both times the temperature was extremely over. Hope Butcher’s Cut gets it right.

Good morning from somewhere off of Ocean Cay! Unable to dock due to high winds, but word is the Captain is going to give it another try around noon. Mustafa the YC Director chatted with us and asked specifically of our experience in YC Restaurant. We gave him our honest opinion and he was genuinely appreciative of the feedback. We were surprised to find a complimentary specialty dining experience letter with his compliments waiting for us in the cabin. So, Butchers Cut will be the spot for our last night. In fairness, the food and service in the restaurant has improved as the week went along. Italian night last night was very good. The YC’s pistachio crusted rack of lamb is among the best I’ve ever had. Took us a few days to figure out the best way to do YC. We do breakfast and lunch at the pool buffet. Service has been excellent and enough variety for the whole family. The pool bar service has been the best we’ve ever had. In the evenings, me’ve learned going early is the best bet. We’ve enjoyed our week on Seascape, and decided to book an Owners Suite on a 4 night Spring Break cruise on Seashore next year. Haven remains our preference, but it’s nice to have another comparable option. Some pics from the pool deck. You can get an idea of the wind today by looking at the flags on the mast.

Good Afternoon from Cozumel! Enjoying MSC so far. Skipped the YC Restaurant last night and did Kaito Sushi instead. It was excellent and my Son really enjoyed the experience. Our Butler Ram has been the best we’ve experienced on any sailing. Him and our Cabin Steward, Tweety have been exceptional. Currently sitting in a hot tub, drinking a beer docked next to NCL Prima. No complaints.

Good evening from somewhere between Falmouth and Grand Cayman. Having a good time so far, there’s a lot of new things to explore on MSC. YC Restaurant has been disappointing overall. Waited over 30 mins to be seated last night. The staff in seems completely overwhelmed at times and the overall feel is disorganized chaos. Walked off for about an hour today and spent the afternoon at the YC Pool. Service was exceptional and we really enjoyed it. Stingray City and snorkeling in Grand Cayman tomorrow.

We found a duck! Thanks Rachel and Nick!

Good Morning from MSC Seascape. Yesterday was hectic but very good for the most part. My family and I had fun exploring the ship. Was nice to experience something completely new and we were genuinely excited with some of the surprises we found. Overall the ship is beautiful and very well kept. It does not seem like they vacuum the carpets enough, however. Not that the carpets are dirty per se, there are small pieces of paper, crumbs, etc. that have been noticeable in various areas of the ship. Service has been a mixed bag so far. Some cruise staff have been great, while others have been downright salty. The one glaring miss so far is the YC restaurant. Service has been slow, staff un-attentive, and food bland. Heading up for breakfast in a few, hopefully they'll turn it around today. Plans for today are YC pool area, water slides, Masterchef for kids, and karaoke this evening. Will try to take some pictures and post throughout the day.

Very true. Not complaining, but a half bath would be nice. The bathroom on these is essentially the same as found in a Haven Penthouse Balcony cabin. I’d say this is the only area they missed the mark.

My pleasure! Hope to share a lot more throughout the week as long as the WiFi cooperates.

The Owners Suite is beautiful, although the bathroom is considerably smaller than the 2 Bedroom Family and Owners Suites on the NCL Breakaway Plus class ships. Big advantage to MSC with the amenities, however. The bar is STOCKED and the Butler told us he’ll replace anything we finish. Going to do some damage this week.

We met our Butler who escorted us onboard and showed us to our cabin. Dropped our bags and now seated in the YC Restaurant. Lunch for me today is Grilled Filet w/ Perigeaux Sauce.

We made it onboard after a challenging ride to Port Miami. Poured most of the ride and got soaked dropping our bags at the YV tent. Checkin at Terminal C was in the old Haven area that they used before the new NCL terminal was built. Embarkation was as smooth as could be expected.

You’re right. We still had a good time, just not like we normally do on NCL.
