MSC Cruises

Unfortunately, sometimes we need to cancel a cruise. Work, health, or any number of other things can pop up and change our plans, but no one wants to waste their hard-earned vacation money, regardless of the reason.

It is always a good idea to understand cancelation policies prior to booking. Details regarding how you much money you will get back, time frames, and processes are all things we need to know ahead of time.

After more than two years, MSC Cruises’ entire fleet of 19 ships is back in service. The final ship to return to active service was MSC Musica, which welcomed passengers aboard in its homeport of Monfalcone, Italy on June 5th.

From Italy, MSC Musica set sail on its first of 23 sailings that it has scheduled for the summer season. The ship is currently scheduled to sail on 7-night itineraries which will take place mostly within the Eastern Mediterranean and Greece.

MSC Cruises has grown to become one of the most popular cruise brands globally, competing against giants like Royal Caribbean, Norwegian, and Carnival.

Today, May 19, 2022 MCS Cruises announced new details and updates pertaining to their newest ship, MSC World Europa. Updates include new restaurants, family offerings, and stateroom designs aboard World Europa.

MSC newest ship is six months away from its debut, and welcoming onboard its first passengers. MSC World Europa is said to be the cruise line’s most innovative, most environmentally advanced, and its most exciting ship to debut so far. MSC World Europa is said to become the cruise line’s flagship once it is completed.

Announced today by MSC, the cruise line will be offering more than 1,390 different shore excursions to passengers this summer. To date, this is the most amount of shore excursions MSC has ever offered.

In a statement by Marialuisa Iaccarino, Head of Shore Excursions for MSC Cruises, “We are dedicated to offering an outstanding range of high-quality shore excursions to guests, so we’re proud to be offering guests the widest range ever this summer.”

MSC Cruises is known for its signature European flair and cuisine, sailing to ports all over the world. However, some may be surprised to know that they are also a great option for a family cruise.

Their large ships and growing fleet rival any of its competitors, and MSC’s mega-ships have all the bells and whistles that cruisers have come to expect. Kids areas, family oriented activities and amenities are all part of the MSC experience. And, their family discounts are a nice welcome to any family.

MSC Cruises continues to grow in popularity, and with this week’s announcement that MSC Meraviglia will be sailing year round from New York, there are even more ways to sail with MSC.  

For those new to the cruise line, there are a whole host of destinations and great ships full of diverse food and entertainment options.

Whether embarking on an adult’s trip, family vacation, solo or with friends, there are lots of ways to relax, have fun and even save some money.

Here are some tips and tricks to make the most of your MSC cruise.

As with most cruise lines, MSC Cruises has a wide selection of cabin options across its fleet. Whether it be a cozy interior cabin or the ultimate deluxe suite, there is something for every traveler.  

Ships offer a variety of accommodations to meet diverse needs, including solo travelers, those guests requiring accessible rooms, and solutions for larger families or groups who want to share common spaces.

MSC Cruises made a big splash into mega-ship cruising with the successful Meravilgia class of ships. Veering in a different direction, the Seaside class of ships embarked upon a new strategy that is not reliant on the bigger is better philosophy.
