MSC Opera 11 july 2012

A short review of our cruise

We take this year a cruise with MSC Opera on 11 July for 9 days and pay the full price.

First of all many storm and bad weather, ok that?s the risk if you take a cruise on the Atlantic.

But the cruise self on the MSC Opera was a very bad experience.

The food was very bad, first day we get coffee in china ware but from the second day only in Tupperware cups. The food self was real rubbish or you eat in the big dining room or buffet it was every day the same trash even crewmembers complain. They have no real kitchen but the most are all microwave pushers. No other restaurants on board so you have no choice. No glas water by diner unless you pay for it, nothing is for free except poor coffee which you have to search all over the place.

Many crewmembers if they get on shore the first what they did was searching for decent food for them self and other crewmembers.

The theatre was far to small and very limited shows of low quality.

In fact it was just a boring ship and not much to do.

The crewmembers are very friendly and helpful and service was ok.

The staff was a bit chaotic and could not deal with critics.

Result, we will never take a cruise again with MSC.
