    good luck with that,
    actualy thinking about it this year we could do one of those trips and spend time down their perhaps we should have waited.
    No, you have a good deal with the one you have booked. A good deal with the flights also, considering you will be returning Boxing Day or near.

    Yes, I spotted this one on Cruise Nation yesterday. Didn't mention it as it's a 7-nighter so not as cheap per night as the ones you listed. Nice Adriatic coast itinerary, though.

    I've done a few repositioning cruises with them. There's always been quite a mix but it is an Italian line. As long as you appreicate that, you'll be fine. Announcements can sometimes be in 5 languages. I've wondered about doing the UAE cruise but the specials all seemed to be Abu Dhabi - Abu Dhabi and I wanted to Dubai - Dubai so I could spend a few nights there before or after.

    I always say if you are happy with the price then it is a good price,

    If that price is including single supplement and flights then I would be happy to pay that, just remember to get the drinks package as you dont get water with the cruise line and its cheaper to get the water pacakge.

    MSC is an italian cruise line so will be a lot of italians but as you are in the middle east I have a feeling it wont be as many italians as they have on their med cruises

    I always buy the water package and also the cocktails package but I don't know if I would use all the vouchers in just seven days. The repositioning cruises tend to be 18 - 22 days.

    I have never had a problem getting iced water at meals (machines in the buffet, from waiter in the main restaurant) or glasees of it from the pool area bars during the day.

    MSC charge for water, other cruise lins that I have been on dont but when I remember two years ago (unless they have changed now) you were charged for water in the resturants as they would only give bottled water
