Comments anyone?
The price for the trip is wonderful, and I think I can swing the two OW flights at the endpoints via miles, so it is a great deal if it makes sense.
Thank you,

Romelle,
Did you end up doing one of these cruises? We were booked on the MSC Opera return from South America for April, 2009, but ended up cancelling and will return to Europe on the Celebrity Mercury from Miami instead. We really do enjoy Celebrity (and also had a great time on Diamond Princess - 32 days from Whittier, AK to Bangkok this past Sept./Oct.)
If you were on the MSC SA transatlantic, I'd love to hear what you thought of it.
