MSC Cruise Ships Set Sail To More Than 150 Destinations Worldwide Including The Mediterranean

An MSC cruise is a perfect blend of the old and the new: ultramodern ships and a completely contemporary onboard experience merged with the traditional charm, warmth, and hospitality that's reflective of the cruise line's Italian heritage. It's also an unbeatable choice for families, as children ages 11 and under can cruise for free on select sailings (effective 2018, the same will be true for kids ages 12 to 17). Long popular with European cruisers, MSC is an increasingly major player elsewhere: it's the fastest-growing fleet in the cruise industry, with 14 vibrant vessels currently at sea and up to an additional 11 scheduled to debut between 2017 and 2026. Few cruise lines offer guests as many customizable options - when you book an MSC cruise, you'll choose both a stateroom and an associated "Inclusive Experience" that entitles you to special perks and privileges; the cruise line also offers passengers a wide range of valuable add-on packages (e.g. beverage, excursion, and spa). All told, cruisers can set sail for over 150 destinations worldwide including ports of call along the Mediterranean and throughout Northern Europe; book an MSC Grand Tour and you'll combine two or more cruises into one unforgettable and in-depth exploration lasting anywhere from two to four weeks.

What Are The Accommodations Like On An MSC Cruise?

Simple but stylish, or elegant and elaborate (depending on which category you select). Passengers can choose from a wide range of Interior Staterooms, Ocean View Staterooms, and Balcony Staterooms (all of which feature a queen bed, an interactive television, and other fine amenities). A selection of Interior Studios, priced and sized for the solo traveler, are also available aboard MSC Bellissima and MSC Meraviglia. Bringing the kids along? MSC's spacious Super Family Staterooms are the perfect choice: two connecting triple staterooms, featuring two bathrooms and two balconies, that'll hold up to six - but at a fixed price, no matter how many people actually use it (Super Family Staterooms are exclusively available aboard MSC Divina and MSC Preziosa). MSC cruise ships are also home to an impressive array of suites, which vary from vessel to vessel. Highlights include MSC's Suite with Private Whirlpool, the Grand Suite (up to 527 square feet, plus a private balcony measuring up to an additional 226 square feet), and the Duplex Suite (two decks tall). Guests seeking the cruise line's most opulent accommodations will want to look into the suites that are part of the MSC Yacht Club (e.g. the Royal Suite, the Deluxe Suite). Lavishly appointed and incredibly comfortable, they also come with a host of exclusive benefits including 24-hour butler service, a dedicated concierge, and all-inclusive lunches and dinners in private restaurants.

What's The Food Like On An MSC Cruise?

Given MSC's long-standing practice of sailing "Mediterranean-style," it should come as no surprise that they serve up some of the industry's most authentically prepared Mediterranean cuisine. But MSC passengers will find plenty of other delicious options to choose from as well. Guests can dine in their ship's Main Restaurant, which is open for breakfast, lunch, and dinner, or visit any of their ship's buffets (up to 13 different "corners" or stations per vessel, which are open 20 hours a day; highlights include a meat carvery, a dedicated kids' corner, and a "Taste of Your Itinerary" corner serving select local delicacies). Specialty options include Eataly (fine Italian favorites) and the Eataly Steakhouse (prime cuts of guaranteed-origin Angus and La Granda of Piedmont beef, plus fresh seafood and more); Ristorante Italia (gourmet and slow-cooked Italian paired with prestigious wines from the Vino Libero consortium); and the Asian Fusion Restaurant (creative Chinese, Japanese, and Thai). Room service is available around the clock, and MSC will deliver pizzas - authentic Neapolitan and/or sourdough, baked fresh to order with your choice of toppings - directly to your stateroom during evening hours. You'll also find dedicated children's menus in the Main Restaurant and other venues.

Entertainment & Leisure: Things To See & Do Aboard An MSC Cruise

Your MSC cruise is brimming with exciting options, and that's true from the moment at which it departs: every MSC sailing begins with a Sailaway Party and a Costume Flag Parade. Additional daytime activities include SuperChef (a culinary competition, judged by one of your ship's specialty chefs); a wide variety of Sports Tournaments and Pool Games (e.g. basketball, volleyball, and water polo); Dance Classes (featuring professional instruction); and Oktoberfest celebrations (beer, costumes, music, and more). As nightfall approaches, enjoy a dance set spun poolside courtesy of DJ Sunset Time, then get ready for all that the evening has in store: a broad selection of live-music venues (featuring everything from classical to country); MSC Show Time (at least six Broadway-caliber performances per sailing); Cirque du Soleil™ at Sea (exclusively available aboard MSC Bellissima); Formula One® racing simulators and a full-sized bowling alley (also exclusive to MSC Bellissima); and gaming galore in your ship's casino. A wide range of age-appropriate activities/programs for young passengers (e.g. the Mini Club, the Juniors Club, and the MSC Generation Teen Club) are also available.
