Welcome to the roll call for the May 31st 2024 sailing of the MSC World Europa! We look forward to meeting you and enjoying this beautiful ship and the ports she visits!

Interesting! Because of the timing of your cruise, I am wondering if some of your experience is specifically because of covid restrictions, that are hopefully long gone.

I found this on their website on 2023 April 11.

Some people prefer same-gender saunas and steam rooms. Others prefer coed. What is your preference, and if you care to share, why do you lean that way?

Have you stayed in the MSC Yacht Club lately? Our last YC experience was Seaside in the summer of 2019. Now we're gearing up for Meraviglia this May. I am wondering what amenities or benefits have been LOST during the last four years. Or what has been added? Thank you for any insight! What I have read, and I cannot confirm is true, is that: Butlers will no longer put away and hang your clothing when you first board Butlers no longer provide additional nuts and snacks in the minibar (other than what might first be there when you board) Butlers no longer provide additional small liquor bottles, but instead provide you with one large bottle of your choice.... ? Butlers can no longer take you to the front row at the evening show Gelato is no longer a "free" benefit You cannot get coffee drinks at Jean Philippe... ?

All seems to appear just fine on the spreadsheet at at https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1ROCmeNSYj_VwCYs3IUjWbrcEomFeqOrvIDUnXG6GLTg/edit?usp=sharing -- there are 184 ships listed, representing all the major cruise lines.

From the videos I've seen it looks wonderful and if it's half as nice as Seaside, I'm thrilled. Already booked for Meraviglia for May and extremely excited about the Thermal Area!

BklynBorn47 — Having a balcony room is wonderful. You certainly cannot get a balcony in Yacht Club for as reasonable of a price! And since you didn't buy a drink package or Thermal Suite access, it would really be hard to justify the added expense of Yacht Club. Unless of course you have money to burn, in which case, I'd be happy to be your guest next time!!! 🙂 Have a wonderful trip on Meraviglia!

What happens if you put your feet into the sea grass?

I am excited to visit OC sometime in the future, but I find your statement a little surprising. I don't doubt that it is a good location, but I don't understand why going to a larger port isn't more interesting. I am not questioning your judgment, but I am curious why you say this is your all- time favorite destination? What makes it the best of the best? 🙂

The Google spreadsheet is open to the public and available to you to edit respectfully. In other words, you can add a new row where you see it necessary. Recommendation is to simply right click on a record number and then choose to add a row above or below. Then just fill it in!
