A couple goes viral complaining that their MSC cruise felt like jail, says they'd rather pay MORE to be on Carnival — then turns around and asks Carnival for a free cruise to make content. You can't make this up.

MSC is widely considered one of the better cruise lines on the market — and Carnival is famously the budget option. So when a couple publicly says they'd pay extra just to get on Carnival, then immediately pivots to asking Carnival for a free cruise in exchange for content... it raises some questions. This one is equal parts funny and baffling from start to finish.
