MSC Cruises

Facilities & Activities

Ships come with full Wellness Spa facilities plus spacious gyms with personal trainers, pools, saunas, Jacuzzis, sports courts and mini-golf. The newer ships also feature such amenities as an F1 simulator and 4D cinema. Evenings onboard offer a wide variety of fun and entertainment. Enjoy a drink in one of the numerous bars or lounges, watch a theatre show, try your luck at the casino or boogie the night away or sing your heart out at the karaoke bar.

Accommodation

There are four main categories of cabin (Inside, Outside, Balcony and Suite) but this does vary across the fleet and each features the latest mod-cons. The latest ships to be launched feature the MSC Yacht Club, an exclusive VIP area, featuring 99 spacious suites and a 24-hour butler service.

Dining

Much effort and emphasis has been placed on the dining options by MSC Cruises. With a distinctive Italian flavour there are a whole host of formal and informal restaurants and eateries to choose from to satisfy your palate and mood.

For the Family

The childrens' program is split into three age groups. The Mini Club (ages 3 - 8), Junior Club (ages 9 to 12) and Teenage Club for those 13 years and older. Onboard there is a space entirely devoted to them, encompassing videogame rooms for older children and playrooms for tots, filled with a wide selection of toys and there is a wonderfully broad variety of activities available.

Cruise Programme

MSC currently has a fleet of ten ships that will increase to fourteen by the end of 2012 with MSC Splendida launching in 2009 followed by MSC Magnifica in 2010, MSC Meraviglia in 2011 and MSC Favolosa in 2012. They sail the Mediterranean year-round and now offer seasonal Baltic cruises as well as itineraries to the Caribbean, South America, the Indian Ocean and South Africa. For passengers in the UK, there are also a number of itineraries that depart from Dover for maximum convenience.
