MSC ready to welcome international guests on US based ships
MSC Cruises will soon accept international guests on its US based ships sailing the Caribbean.
Foreign guests, including those from the UK and Europe will be able to take fly-cruises when the US reopens its borders on 8 November.
International travellers from many parts of the world can enter the country provided they are fully vaccinated against Covid-19.
MSC Cruises called it ‘a tremendous boost’ for European-based and other international tourists wanting to cruise during the winter in the Caribbean.
MSC Cruises has three of its ships sailing from Florida for the entire season -new flagship MSC Seashore, MSC Meraviglia and MSC Divina.
The line’s ships will welcome non-US residents on board from 8 November
Gianni Onorato, CEO, MSC Cruises, said, "We have eagerly awaited the US Administration’s date to re-open the country for fully vaccinated travellers that love to cruise. The Caribbean is a popular destination for our guests from across Europe and other regions of the world, particularly during the winter."
"Many more will now be able to fly to both Miami and Orlando to board our three ships on different itineraries in the Caribbean, including Jamaica, Costa Rica, Mexico and our private island in The Bahamas, MSC Ocean Cay Marine Reserve."
MSC Seashore will be based in Miami from 20 November following her official naming ceremony at Ocean Cay.
From 28 November, MSC Meraviglia will move to a new homeport of Port Canaveral while MSC Divina will move to Miami offering a range of 3-, 7- and 11-night cruises.
The three ships will offer a range of Caribbean itineraries throughout the winter season and all itineraries will include a call at Ocean Cay MSC Marine Reserve.
MSC Cruises is offering ‘Fly & Cruise’ packages from key European cities and other international air hubs to join the Company’s three Florida-based ships.
