hope u dont mind.. topic of aida ships came up on a carnival forum so i shared ur videos

Morgan – enjoyed the video.   Hope you do another one on the AIDALuna where you give us your opinion on the stateroom you occupied.  Thanks for all your helpful advice.

Very interesting view on AIDA! Thanks for sharing!

Xoxo great video

Japp, bitte auch mal auf Deutsch 🙂 Interessantes Video, mich hat sehr überrascht, dass das Essen so gut ist! Dennoch reizt mich AIDA einfach nicht – wie du schon sagst, zu wenig Möglichkeiten an Bord. Da bin ich doch zu großer Disney Cruise Line Fan 🙂

Morgan, would you think it would be better to go on royal Caribbean for a fun holiday (fun stuff like entertainment) or aidaluna thanks in advance.

HEY; YOU´VE FORGOTTEN TO MENTION THE STATEROOMS THAT ARE DESIGNED DIFFERENT TO OTHER SHIPS.
The Food is great but mostly almost cold but hot!!!

AIDA does not have an English website to book on 🙁

MSC Crociere is a cruise line from Confederation Helvetica (Switserland). Not Italian. And yes they speak Italian in CH and yes they speak German and yes they speak French. And yes they do not have a connection with the sea or the ocean so there cruise lines are in Italian harbours.

Danke für das interessante Video! Ich soll ja hier posten, wenn ich finde, dass Du auch welche in deutsch machen könntest. Also bitte.

Excellent review Morgan. Sounds like a great cruise line for me. I think NCL RCL have too many planned activities, which in itself is fine, however, on those cruise lines with so many planned activities, I feel like I’m always missing out on so much if I don’t go to every activity to the point where I almost feel stressed-out if I can’t fit them all in. Not to mention trying to get a group together if your traveling as a group. Perhaps I’m more of a “lay by the pool” sort, however, I do like good quality shows and interesting ports of call. RCL & NCL tend to be more focused on their ships then their itineraries. For frequent cruisers this can be a problem.

i’ve seen that ship in new york with the norwegian breakaway

Love the sneak German language

Weite welt ist das beste restaurant

You are really good at german

I’m german but I’ll try to write in English. I’ve been cruising with Aida 12 times now and would like to share my experiences with your annotations. For the price, booking a cruise with Aida is a always some kind of lottery. There are different price models and if you’re very flexible and able to book shortly before your cruise starts or if you catch a special offer you can make real bargains. There are also a lot of special prices and promotions at attractive rates for a limited period of time. Aida is expensive if you book at “premium” (catalogue) rates, but for almost all cruises there are sooner or later offers that are a lot cheaper than premium rates. Tips for crew and most drinks for dining are included in the price, which are not on RCCL, MSC or Costa. And prices of NCL have gone up since they upgraded to all inclusive.
Smoking is not really a problem, it is only allowed in designated areas. I am very happy that it is no more allowed at the anytime bar which is the disco on board. On my earlier cruises it was a big problem for me so I avoided the disco. I am not happy that smoking is allowed at the staterooms’ verandas, so if your neighbour is a big smoker and you are not that could make your veranda pretty much useless. But for price reasons I usually book an interior stateroom and travel more often for the saved money so this is not a problem for me.
Food is very good at the buffet restaurants, at least for me. I feel no need to go to the gourmet restaurants that are not included in the price. Especially breakfast is excellent compared to the US cruise lines, at least for my “german” taste.
One more thing that might be interesting for you, Internet on board is now affordable. There is a social media flatrate for popular networks like Facebook, Whatsapp, Instagram and some others (price depends on length of your cruise) or there are Volume based packages without time limit at fair prices. The price for 250 MB is about 24 Euro, for 500 MB about 37 Euro and for 3 GB about 94 Euro if you book in advance and you can upgrade to a higher package on board.
I totally agree with you that Aida’s current fleet is not offering the possibilities that the big American cruise lines do. If your destination is primarily the ship and not the ports of your cruise then Aida is not made for you. I am also missing a big pool for real swimming and the possibilities of the big US ships. For example I like the rope climbing yard with “The Plank” on Norwegian Getaway. And I also would love to see some water slides on future Aida ships.
