  I&apos;m a chef that was working for Royal Caribbean, during the pandemic we had skeleton crews onboard, there was only 68 of us on the whole ship, we used to do crew bbq&apos;s, movie nights etc. It was amazing, best contract of my life

  As an introvert, someone on a budget, &amp; someone who doesn&apos;t like fancy food or dressing up, this sounds like my perfect cruise.

  I&apos;ve seen some bad behavior by passengers on cruises as well. In the dining room, a woman from Wales started yelling and blaming the waiter for the &quot;bad food&quot;, no matter how he tried to please her. I spoke to the head waiter and told him to disregard any complaints towards the poor boy. I also left a commendation for him at the end of the cruise.

  A cruise that was at 25% capacity would be my favorite. <br>I hate crowds. <br>Generally I like to just go to a place and visit rather than cruise because of that.

  The solid chocolate block can be tricky. My dad used to work at Arnott’s biscuits and sometimes he’d bring these huge blocks of chocolate home - they’d take up an entire shelf of the fridge and be like 10cm high. The only way you can get any off is with a hammer and a chisel. As long as your chisel is spotlessly clean/new, it’s fine. I’d highly recommend that or else you can heat a knife blade and do it that way. As a kid though, the drama of a hammer and chisel is magical.

  Cruises are 100% NOT my type of vacation; however, I love traveling. &nbsp;Your channel provides interesting insights into a style of traveling that’s not my own. &nbsp;I love your format, particularly all the details and comprehensive coverage of cabins, etc. &nbsp;You have a new subscriber!

  I&apos;m a 58 Yr old Brit. I&apos;ve always steered clear of cruises thinking it&apos;d be all I loath. Forced audience participation &apos;fun&apos;, older people in ballgown shared dining. &nbsp;Etc etc. You&apos;ve proved me wrong... Great job Emma ... 🇬🇧

  I took my first MSC cruise in 2021. &nbsp;For the money it was the best &nbsp;deal I&apos;ve ever gotten for a cruise. &nbsp;As you stated it wasn&apos;t the same as NCL but it was almost half the price. &nbsp;As for capacity I went on the Meraviglia in December and there were only 670 out of a possible 5642 (&lt;12% capacity). &nbsp;Due to the reduced capacity some game shows were cancelled on the cruise and they only had one show performance each night instead of 2. &nbsp;Total cost of the cruise was $577.50 for 7 days with gratuities included and a free balcony upgrade.

  I’ve been on a MSC cruise for my High School prom trip, and it was AMAZING! Best trip of my life and the crew was simply fantastic, It’s been over 14 years and I still keep in touch with two crew members that work for MSC to this day! We got so close to the crew to the point where we both cried when saying goodbyes.

  You probably already thought of this, but MSC Cruises prices are very competitive likely because the cruise line is owned by MSC, the Mediterranean Shipping Company, which their primary moneymaker is cargo shipping. The cruises get financial backing from the cargo shipping income.

  I have suffered from travel sickness for all of my life, I can totally relate to you describing how you can&apos;t look at a phone screen during travel. People who have never suffered, can not understand how really debilitating travel sickness is, and that for some of us, the feeling doesn&apos;t necessarily stop at the end of the journey.
