I was onboard Rhapsody in August for a shorter version of your cruise but I was in the same cabin! I agree with everything you said about the ship and the cabin, it was a really nice cruise and I'm happy about the fact that things are not changed in this period

I have been on Fortuna a lot of time ago, when it was the newest ship of the fleet so I can't tell you how the ship is now. Remember that, just before the departure of the cruise you are looking at, the ship will be 2 weeks in drydock for maintenance (and, I think, to make her a little bit more compliant to the Chinese market where she will go in April). The negative reviews I have read in Italy are about the poor maintenance of the ship but the drydock should fix this problem. I have travelled with Costa several times and I confirm that the passengers will be in the biggest part Europeans and that everything onboard is repeated in the main European languages (English included obviously). In that cruise there won't be many children so it should be more quiet than the biggest part of Costa Cruises

MSC has cancelled all the cruise calls scheduled in Tunis for 2016. MSC Preziosa will call Malta instead of Tunis and Palma, MSC Poesia will be in Palma de Mallorca instead od Tunis

Sorry, I was only thinking to the classic port to port cruises. As for what we have now, Costa is modifiyng the itineraries on their website but neoRiviera's calls are still scheduled at the moment

neoRiviera hasn't any cruise call scheduled in Turkey in 2015, she will be there in 2016

I have been onboard Rhapsody from 8/9 to 8/16 and Park Cafè was open until 12.30 am

I've just done a cruise onboard the Rhapsody in the JS 8596. The balcony is really huge and the only day we had problems with the vibrations was yesterday (the last day of the cruise, sea day between Chania and Civitavecchia) because the ship's speed was of more than 22 knots (we reached 22.3 knots). On the other days, with a speed of maximum 20 knots, there wasn't any problem and we really enjoyed the size of the balcony and the stairs that go directly to the park cafè. The stateroom attendant was very good too

The only MSC's ships which have suites that can sleep up to 4 guests are Magnifica, Fantasia, Splendida (Aurea Suite), Preziosa and Divina in Aurea Suite or Yacht Club. If you aren't able to see the avilability for a cruise, try other departures of those ships because they have only few cabins that usually go sold out early

You can look at Lisboa's port official website http://www.portodelisboa.pt/portal/page/portal/PORTAL_PORTO_LISBOA_ING/CRUZEIROS/PREVISAO_NAVIOS_CRUZEIRO

If you are going to Lisboa by the end of the year you will be able to know what will be the quay assigned to your cruise
