    Amazing content and editing! Having sailed both cruise lines, I can say that your presentation of both were on target. If you can't find something fun to do on a cruise (regardless of the cruise line) than you probably will never have fun at all 🙂⛱

    We did Royal in November and MSC in December. Hands down Royal was better - nicer balcony cabins, more onboard activities, the best entertainment, better food, and better private island (especially with free umbrellas, a pool, and many activities). We booked MSC to try the nightlife on their island but they left at 4 pm instead of 10 pm even though the weather was great and other cruisers said that’s happened many times before - so disappointing. I doubt we will ever do MSC again from all our experiences.

    Splendid side by side comparison. Early on it looked like Royal was pulling ahead but, later MSC seemed to catch up. In the end, it looked like there was something to love about both cruise lines!

    First of all, I want to rate your video... 10 out of 5! Great presentation and the editing was awesome! What a viewing experience! Very professional, informative and very entertaining! I must admit, I did miss seeing Ms. Cutie Pie Noa!
    I think when I am traveling solo, my tolerance for many things is a lot higher than when I am traveling with my significant other. The closet space Alyssa encountered was noteworthy, but if I were traveling alone, I would not really care. Same with the ottoman that could be used as a table. I am easy so I would make do. With a significant other, those things would be a bit more important.
    I have to admit I am a bit biased because I tend to be loyal to Royal. That being said, I think Royal edged MSC in terms of a better experience on this weekend cruise. As you know, on any given weekend, the tables can turn and either cruise line could have bested the other. You all are comparing apples to apples and did an excellent job doing so! Compare either cruise to Margaritaville at Sea and I think the scale gets decisively tipped. I am not casting stones but that is a different league, or category or cruising.
    Love you guys! As solo commentators and as a Team, you guys are awesome fun!! Real and genuine peeps! Again, Great job on the side by side review! Thanks for taking the time and energy for that project! A++ You're welcome! I will see myself to the door! LMAO! 😎😎😎

    It’s so hard to say. We’ve done both and each cruise has different things to offer!! But Alyssa, your reaction to we are the world, WAS MY REACTION TO A T! 🤣🤣 Also, the mini bar in your room on MSC, you can ask your room steward to empty it and they will for no charge, then you can use the fridge!❤

    What a great video!!! Super creative and the editing was on par. Kept me hooked. MSC’s beach party and light show looks like a blast! And I agree about how fast RC books it out of their own island. Makes me feel like I was at house party and the cops showed up the way we scram out of there…lol! Alyssa…I loved your hair for your dinner at the steakhouse. So simple yet super elegant. I’m definitely going to try to attempt something like that for my next cruise.

    One of the best cruise videos I’ve seen. It didn’t feel like 34 minutes. Such a good pace and fantastic humor. I haven’t sailed MSC, but I have done Royal many times. And it was cool seeing Griff at Chops eating at the same spot where I ate when I sailed solo on her in 2022. I got the filet….as usual.

    Loved loved loved this video. Especially trying to figure out how Alyssa filmed herself from a distance, like the end of the water slide. And the truly excellent editing. So. Much. Work! And seeing Griff wonder how Alyssa was doing. I loved that y'all were obvi thinking of each other throughout your solo experience.
    I just checked in for my December cruise on Freedom of the Seas, and I am SO looking forward to CocoCay--but have been wondering what it's like when it rains. Hopefully it's usually like Cullen's experience where the rain moves out to be replaced by wonderful weather.
    Thanks for making this video!
