Nice ship but lack of seating eg atrium for live music, long queues and lack of tea, milk and cups!

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

Further information

Onboard

MSC offer two seated dining options, which they call Classic Dining. There is an early sitting at around 7pm and a late sitting at around 9pm. These sittings can varyby ship. MSC also offer a more flexible dining option called 'My Time' dining. This allows you to chose the time that you dine in the main restaurant. Aurea guests have an anytime dining option.

MSC offers a wide range of dietary options, including vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, and low-sodium choices. Guests can notify the cruise line in advance, and the onboard dining team strives to cater to individual dietary requirements.

MSC guests are limited to two suitcases and two pieces of hand luggage when checking in for their cruise. However, we highly recommend that you read your cruise ticket in full before travelling as these limits may change.

Apart from their fantastic formal and themed evenings, MSC guests are invited to wear casual resort attire whilst on board. Casual resort attire would incude a shirt with chinos, or summer dresses and a jacket. Whislt formal wear would be a suit or smart evening trousers with a jacket and tie, and cocktail dresses.

Iglu Cruise has a team in place to provide necessary assistance to make your holiday run smoothly. If anyone in your party requires medical or mobility assistance, notify your Cruise Specialist at the time of booking or as soon as possible if circumstances change after booking. The Special Assistance Team will email a form 6-8 weeks before departure, which must be completed and returned.

Travel requirements

All passengers (including all children), should hold their own full 10-year (5 years for children) British Citizen (GBR) passport. The passport should be valid for at least 6 months past your expected return date to the UK, as this is often a criteria for entry to certain countries.

MSC Cruises recommends that every Passenger should have an adequate insurance policy which covers them sufficiently for cancellation, medical assistance and expenses, loss and/or damage of the luggage.
