sorted byI accidentally went on it this week and got off yesterday after returning from Gran Canaria on the ship and unable to get a train back to London due to the train strikes so stayed on and went to Norway, I was told the ship was totally full for this cruise with ours haven had around 5,300 on, so could be 6,300 which is absolute max, I am sure someone on board will update this shortly. The cruise was totally different from the GC one which was a much older group with endless electric buggies, the Norway one seemed to have cheap people on board, when I say cheap I don't mean low earners I mean cheap standards, 500 kids on board with loads school age so skipping school, rubbish left lying around, piles of food left uneaten on plates in the buffet, parents drunk out their heads and kids rolling around on carpets doing cartwheels at midnight, drunken parents pushing buggies totally lost, drunken chanting and waving of arms, rudeness to staff while waiting for a drink, drinking like crazy trying to get their weeks drink allowance down their necks in one day well if you drink 3 times as much you actually create a 3 x bigger queue! Forgetting to change their clocks forward and creating mayhem in dining rooms. Drinks spilt over sofas, spitting in hot tubs, awful awful awful, I can only imagine it being like a Butlins on the sea not that I have been in one, MSC need to be careful they don't give it that reputation but no idea how they vet the passengers, its hard enough to fill cabins during this time. Over my last 7 cruises aboard Virtuosa this year this was the worst ever even beating the booze cruises! If you were one of the arrogant families who had 4 or more kids sitting on the big cream armchairs cross legged in the Virtuosa bar with their faces stuck in phones with thumbs going like hell at 11.30pm, well maybe you would consider letting them play in the rear 1/4/ of the ship that is set up for the kids with basketball court, games centres etc or even take the to bed, not block seats for elderly people to watch a show or have a drink!
Anyway here are some pics from earlier this week, the scenery was amazing, the shops VERY expensive, and a lot of people moaning about the excursions cost v value, but then they are optional and you can't fix stupid, people have a choice but some seem to leave their brains at home, I think some trips didn't match the hype and cost, some people would hide the truth but others more honest, especially the railway at Flam.
What a shame a 3/4 Billion pound ship of outstanding engineering with a dedicated and fantastic crew is only as good as the passengers that get on it, on this occasion unfortunately the standards were as low as I have ever seen, I would have thought tis would have been one of the better cruises but found myself wishing I was back on a booze cruise. Some of these moaning people re just so thick, they absolutely no idea what it takes to run a ship and the fact that they are at sea so no popping round the corner shop to get something, I guarantee not one of the moaners could even calculate the amount of toilet rolls required for this trip never mind the endless supplies to keep a machine of this size running, they should stick to Butlins this ship deserves much much better!
Well I need holiday after that cruise so off to tour California on Sat next week, will return to her in September and leave the summer months of kids and mayhem behind.
Wondering if you’re able to purchase an ‘extension’ from deck 5.
Also worth noting that if you have top tier status with any other cruise line or hotel chain, they’ll give a status match, only takes a couple of days to process. My husband and I have both successfully matched our Diamond IHG hotel status to MSC Gold, which gets us a free spa visit (£70ish each otherwise) as well as various discounts and other minor perks.
Would love a late June/early July fjords cruise from Hull!
Keep the bargains coming!
Hull only option will be a ferry.
It would be nice to see some of Slartibartfast's handiwork.
There was a misprice last year that got lower but they don't really count.
This is a better itinerary than the pearls making anything under £600 is decent deal.
We are giving Virtuosa a rest, back to NCL for the next one and have our eye on either Baltic or med for the one after that depending on getting hotel/flights at reasonable rates. (edited)
I’ve got a trip coming up - I paid ridiculous price for…which obviously has reduced as it’s getting closer. So wondering how I could go about it - also I’m a diamond MSC member. (edited)
Keep the bargains coming!
Just ditch Cunard and shop around

As for snooty cruises not for me I am afraid, too many so called cruisers are up their own arse having spent their life going around in a tin can thinking they have seen the world when in fact they have only had glimpses. HOWEVER having done the world the real way I must say I do see the attraction of cruising, but with the state of some of the passengers they really should watch what they are eating, there are some enormous people on there filling their faces, just absolute pure greed!
I need a week off between cruises to recover, although Round The World sounds great you would need to be both mentally and physically prepared for that!
