We were talked into joining some friends on a Med/Greece cruise some years ago, using a well-known UK name. It was horrendous if you are not the type - Butlins afloat, complete with redcoats. The food was plentiful (which seemed to be one of the attractions for many cruisers) but mediocre. The ship carried 1,200 passengers - I simply can't imagine being trapped on one carrying three times that number. I think I would rather have taken my chance on the original Titanic.
Wouldn't mind having a look at the new one though. And a look at the Costa whatever it was when we get down to northern Italy later this year.
