1) use cruiseplum.com to sort by price per night and filter by many other variables, makes it so easy to find the cheaper cruises

2) When you find a cheap one, run it by cruisecompete.com for quotes from travel agents. My $780 list price cruise turned into a $555 cruise! sometimes the price is the same, but you get some perks like on board credit.

3) Keep a tab open on flights.google.com; i like to price the cruise+airfare for each option, as sometimes the airfare is more than the cost of the cruise! You can also save a lot of money by coming a day or two early, or staying a day or two longer, as flight costs vary day to day. In my case it made sense to drive 6 hours and pay for parking rather than flying.

4) get Hilton Aspire credit card ($550/yr) for automatic hilton diamond status, status match to MSC Diamond (which you can keep for life by taking a cruise every 5 years.) You get 1 free specialty dining experience on every cruise, priority boarding, preference for upgraded cabins and some other nice perks. You can dump the Aspire after the first year and keep the 175,000 hilton points, worth around $700 and a free night certificate possibly worth $600 if you stay at top tier Hilton property. Also, there are a lot of hilton resorts around cruise ports so another card benefit ($200 resort credit in Jan-June, another $200 credit in July-Dec) can get you a free or reduced price stay if you arrive in port the night before. There is also a $200/yr airline benefit that can be easily harvested for United credit to help you fly there.

5) if you do want drinks and wi-fi the absolute cheapest time to get that is during booking. It's more to add it after booking and before the cruise, and even more when you do it on board. If you are happy with the included complementary drinks, you can get cheap or free internet (at least a little bit) through most Visa signature/infinite cards and gigsky.com. They'll give you 100MB of onboard internet for free to try it out. That might be all you need to check your email a couple of times if you're careful.

Just as an aside drinks+wifi can cost more than the cruise itself. Do your drink math before you buy a plan. drink juice, water, and coffee, unplug when you're not in port, and save yourself a lot of money! even a couple of ala cart drinks per day is a lot cheaper than the drink package.

Lol. I modified an Alaska cruise from two people for $1200 to one person and the price jumped to over $6800! Talk about a solo traveler premium. That is downright hostile.
Bring your blow-up cruise doll LOL (no they won't let you do that)

Went on MSC once. Would not recommend.
lots of cruise youtubers swore them off, but changed their mind when they improved a lot in the US market (Professor Melissa for one). also calibrate your expectation to the low price. or go Yatch club

I've only ever been on MSC (from NY to Bahamas). It felt like a steal, but our trip was definitely crowded, and perhaps the more expensive companies like Royal Caribbean are slightly nicer and less crowded (from what I here from those that I know that have done both). I will say that their private island in the Bahamas is beautiful. I don't regret going with them, but will say the clientele was on the much older side, if that matters to you. They also gave us $100 in credit each for getting to the Florida stop late.

Took my family on a 7 day Eastern Caribbean cruise back in February this year. Upgraded to Yacht Club. It was a very awesome experience.

Slickdeals forum, not cruise critic forum...Can't people be honest (even with themselves)? Those with qualitative comments, why not state the total out-of-pocket of what they have done. I'll take the lead: I booked 4-nighter coming November for $180/person total including all fees and gratuities (my last 7-nighter cost me $280). Having sailed most of the MSC ships repeatedly, I'm assured of greatest vacation as always. Now I know some people are of entirely different mentality - so they'd only sail Yacht Club, even if non-YC was given out free. So please account very clearly for how much you paid prior to sailing, and during. I'm sure that if you just won't sail in anything but YC, you won't ask for gratuities to be removed, either. So what was your final total?

A family member went on MSC. They have also been on Royal and Disney. They said MSC was TERRIBLE. Ship was crowded and dirty, and food (usually the best part of cruising) was mediocre and portions were small and rationed. Everything was a constant up charge and upsell if you wanted a better experience.

My wife and I did the MSC 7 night Alaska cruise last month. The booking for 2 was about $2800 for Fantastica level with drink and WiFi package. There was a $250 "hotel" fee. We did 4 excursions at ports and there was plenty of entertainment onboard. The restaurants were very good and the buffet was adequate. We had a great time. This was our 1st cruise. We were on the Poesia which holds about 2500 passengers and 1000 crew. There were only about 2000 passengers booked so it didn't feel crowded. There were only about 20 children onboard. Very positive experience for us and we are planning an 11 night Western Caribbean cruise for next year on MSC.

Quote from raysrule81 :
Agree with all that especially about Ocean Cay! Most cruise lines stop at their own private islands for a few hours and then leave in the afternoon giving you no time to enjoy it, but the fact MSC has a lot of itineraries that stay there overnight is awesome and doesn't feel rushed. We did several night excursions like see through paddle boarding and saw sharks and tons of fish, plus it was so quiet on that part of the island which was relaxing. Also the night beach parties/bonfires were fun too. Can't do that on other cruises.
which one was this? Did Seascape. was crowded but nice..

MSC made it easy for auto gratuities to be removed (did cash direct) unlike CCL and Holland.

Be aware if you're a solo traveler, sometimes CruisePlum shows great solo fares but the line refuses to let solo travelers book them. I've experienced this with MSC, Royal and Carnival.

For example, right now CruisePlum shows MSC Seaside from Miami on 11/9 as $283 for an inside cabin for a solo on a 4-day weekday cruise -- airfare will cost the same. But when I go to the MSC website to book it, the site says the cruise is full. If I change the number of passengers, it lets me move forward in the booking process.

Any advice on how to manage this issue?

We went on a MSC cruise to Bahamas with friends this year.It was not good. Food is mediocre but still ok. But our toilet had problems the first day .. and not just our toilet.. our friends too. But the worst thing was the bedside light..:went on by itself in the middle of the night and you can't turn it off! It's a common problem if you do a google search. We never got our excursion tickets delivered to us, even after we went to the desk to tell them we didn't receive it! Hospitality is the main problem on this ship compared to other cruise lines. Price of MSC is not that much cheaper than other cruise lines if you shop around. We will not be taking any more MSC cruises. Just our view but hope it helps anyone who might be thinking about taking any MSC cruise. Do some research on what people have to say about the ship you are sailing on beforehand. During the cruise, they kept asking you to give them 5 stars during performances, but they didn't deserve it.

Last MSC experience was horrible. Very mediocre food. Woken up by people partying several nights. Somebody fell overboard around 4am and the sirens went off and it was chaos. On disembarkation fights broke out between people trying to get out early. Never again

"3) Keep a tab open on flights.google.com"

What's the meaning of "keep a tab open"; is this a term for TRIGERRING a particular site function?
