I have been trying to get my money back since May 2025 for a cruise that MSc cancelled like why do I not have my dam money back year and it’s August
My wife Patricia Elena C uellar, and I just arrived from our cruise MSC Splendida, from July 25th to August 1st. We were located in the cabin 11200. Wew want to testify how greatful were are with all the staff, but very specially with RIAWAN KOMANG, bartender located on the bar of 5th floor, also with the waiters PRAVEENA and YUSA. If we could give them a thousand stars, we would. They deserve the best recognition and we are VERY grateful with them. Aldo we want to mention our cabin steward DON DAVID. Thank you very much
Extremely Disappointing Cruise with MSC Cruises! 🚢
We traveled under booking #[information hidden] and it was a total nightmare:
• Dirty sheets with someone else’s hair
• Rotten smell in the bathroom and pool areas
• Overbooked ship, couldn’t watch any shows
• Over 3-hour wait at restaurants every night
• Dirty glasses, rude staff
• I got sick with a flu-like virus onboard
• At the private island, they took away food, drinks, and WATER at 2:30 PM
• Later that day, everything shut down due to a medical emergency — my kids went to bed hungry
• No assistance during port stops
What should’ve been a dream vacation turned into a stressful, unhealthy experience.
@msccruises where is your accountability?
My family and I cruised on the fabulous & gorgeous MSC World America from: 6/7-6/21/25. Here’s a synopsis of our cruise: First and foremost, our cabin was changed without our knowledge from a Deluxe Balcony Cabin to an accessible cabin for guests with disabilities. We noticed the change immediately. The MSC customer service was contacted immediately hours prior to sailing. We were told to speak with guest services. Guest services were contacted: 6/7@ 4:10 pm, 5:12 pm and following up several days later. First response was: Show us your original reservation then they’ll be able to address the issue. The original reservation was presented via email: Original reservation email received 10/19/24 and we were told the situation will be addressed and we will be contacted. Second response: MSC understands the severity of the situation, however the ship is full and since we were on a back-to-back cruise they will reassess whether an adjustment can be made before the 2nd week. This was a retirement cruise for us, and we were very upset because the cabin was very small compared to what we paid for and visualized according to our confirmation with a picture that read: WELCOME TO YOUR CABIN!! The picture on the MSC App was misleading, we felt it was on purpose because the cabin number was not for a Deluxe Balcony Cabin that sleeps 4. We were planning on bringing our granddaughter as a surprise because she did so well in school. We are glad that we did not do that because she would not have anywhere to sleep. We watched this cabin for months on the MSC App in anticipation only to be moved to a smaller cabin. Also, our cabin was very noisy during our entire trip!! The rattling of a panel above the balcony was ridiculous!! I did my research regarding MSC switching passengers’ cabins without their knowledge and it appears that they are allowed to do this. My husband and I knew that nothing was going to be done because of the professionalism that was exhibited at our initial presentation of the issue to guest services and guest services staff thereafter. We both were retired managers for 45+ years as public servants. So, we wanted to try because it was a 15-day cruise. Second: Our main dining room was: LaFoglia. Several of our dishes were served cold, and our servers were terrific. However, we realized that MSC is accustomed to serving passengers an assortment of bread to each table. However, upon request, maybe make an adjustment if customers prefer one type of bread to be served at their table. This experience with MSC will be shared with family, friends and acquaintances. Everyone that traveled with us agreed, no more cruises on MSC because they cannot be trusted!!!!
