MSC Cruises unveils ‘Stay & Cruise’ programme
MSC Cruises unveiled its new summer 2024 ‘Stay & Cruise’ programme
This enables guests to extend their seven-night cruise into a nine or ten-night holiday on land and sea.
The programme includes a new cruise add-on package to extend their holiday before or after their seven-night sailing.
The cruise add-on comprises an additional two-night stay with breakfast included at a four-star hotel in Athens, Venice and Rome.
There is also a three-star hotel in Miami option as well as two or three nights at a four-star hotel in New York.
Included in the package is a half-day city excursion.
The ‘Stay & Cruise’ offer features private ground transfers from the airport to the hotel and then from the hotel to the ship or vice versa.
Antonio Paradiso, VP of International Sales for MSC said: “We know guests enjoy the flexibility of tailoring their perfect holidays as well as exploring new destinations.”
The ‘Stay & Cruise’ offer is available on various MSC Cruises summer 2024 sailings in the Mediterranean and Caribbean and currently available to book through MSC Cruises Contact Centre or travel agents.
For guests looking for an extended Western or Eastern Mediterranean cruise holiday from Rome, the offer is linked on MSC Divina, MSC Fantasia, MSC Musica, MSC Seaside and MSC Seaview from Civitavecchia before or after their cruise.
For Eastern Mediterranean cruises, the add-on package for Venice is available pre-or post-cruise with MSC Armonia, MSC Lirica and MSC Sinfonia from Marghera-Venice.
Additionally, guests sailing on MSC Opera, departing from the port of Piraeus, can opt to extend their holiday in Athens before their cruise.
The offer can be booked with Caribbean itineraries on MSC Seascape departing from Miami for an additional two-day stay in Miami before the cruise or on MSC Meraviglia departing from New York.
Air travel can also be booked through MSC Cruises and added to the ‘Stay & Cruise’ packages.
The option for an add-on package for Istanbul will soon be available this month for MSC Cruises winter 2024/2025 ‘Stay & Cruise’ programme.
The MSC Cruises ‘Stay & Cruise’ packages have been put together in partnership with its 100% owned Italian tour operator, Going.
