 | MSC Melody, MSC Cruises (Passenger/crew ratio: 2.1)
Although the outside decking is generous, it can be quite noisy.
There are kids’ clubs and the pool is on both the outside and inside. Dining is Italian in style, but the entertainment is not up to much.
The European outlook ensures service is good, although fairly relaxed.

 | Star Princess, Princess Cruises (Passenger/crew ratio: 2.3)
Sister ship to Grand Princess and Golden Princess, Star Princess has a spacious feel and has a bigger children's area.
Although there are lots of American passengers, the British connection with P&O means that the ambience is slightly less Americanised than on other lines.
