I was unfortunate to take the Virtuosa. When compared to 'say' the P&O IONA pales into insignificance. A few reasons: 1. internet charged by device,, if you need laptop and phone you pay 2 x 16. 99 x 7 days = £238 for the week, with P&O you can log in and out provided you only use one device at a time. 2. Shows are normally free on p&o the carousel is a paid for theatre. 3 lifts are accessed from the outside meaning you can only use one dedicated lift at a time, given there are at any point in time around 1000 children you find some of them press the all the lift buttons meaning you have to go to every floor, and are only allowed to use one lift. 4. 6700 passengers mean you spend most of your holiday in queues, which in my estimation average around 30 minutes wait each time, and inflexible on moving meal times. 5. if you are solo and want to go to solos meet, and it clashes with meal time - there is nothing you can do, unlike P&O that are more flexible with Freedom dining 6. every free show is always sold out every day 7. no kettle in room 8. if you ask for brown sauce or ketchup often everyone has eaten their meal before it comes 9. you need to put your cruise card to get power in your room, you cannot use a credit card to make sure power is on if you need to go fetch water 10. drinks for a pint is £8-£9 on MSC Virtuosa compared to £5 on P&O iona 11. Iona has multiple whirlpools and infinity pools virtuosa only a couple in the pool area. 12. Solos eat alone, P&O has freedom dining which is more sociable. 13. If you like pretty pictures virtuosa undoubtedly looks good, although poor design means if you are walking from pool to buffet it is not obvious the glass window facing the pool area is actually a door that opens on its own. If you are serious about a good time p&o every day of the week !!! Give your money to an (albeit) mainly british run and partly british owbned company help the UK economy - P&O every day of the week
