MSC Cruises
MSC Cruises is the market leader in Mediterranean cruises. The range of the company includes year-round routes in the Mediterranean Sea and the Caribbean, as well as seasonal routes to the shores of Northern Europe, South America, South Africa, the Canary Islands, the Antilles, the United Arab Emirates and the Atlantic Ocean.
 
The investment program, which started in 2003, made it possible to create a completely modernized MSC fleet, which currently consists of 12 ships - 4 ships for each class.
 
MSC Cruises is a company with a Mediterranean heart, aiming to bring the uniqueness of the Mediterranean lifestyle to its clients from all over the world. Eternal values ​​such as authenticity, humanity and warmth are the guiding principles of MSC. The principles of goodwill are visible in everything: from the unprecedented hospitality of the multilingual crew to the delicious national cuisine that best reflects the life and culture of the inhabitants of the region.
 
MSC Cruises management believes that leadership is impossible without a special responsibility to conserve the natural resources that make the company thrive, and to ensure the safety of all people on and off the ship. Not surprisingly, MSC's care for the marine ecosystem and for the health of the crew and passengers has received numerous certifications and awards. In 2013, MSC Cruises became the first company to be awarded the "7 Golden Pearls" for the environmental friendliness of Fantasia class liners, namely: the Cleanship 2 Class distinction for advanced water and air purification systems, ISO 50001 certificates for high energy efficiency standards, ISO 14001 for resource management, ISO 22000 for food quality and OHSAS 18001 for occupational health and safety.
 
The interior and exterior of the company's ships, created by De Jorio Design International, have also won prestigious awards in the field of shipbuilding design. Nonetheless, MSC Cruises continues to set new standards for sea travel. Of particular note are the MSC Aurea Spa, a luxury spa and fitness center, and the state-of-the-art MSC Yacht Club, an exclusive club aboard each of the company's four flagships, featuring elegant cabins, personal butler and many other perks. Plunging into the world with MSC Cruises, everyone has the opportunity to join the Mediterranean philosophy, where life is measured in moments, not minutes, and each such moment should have its own special taste.

The flagship ships Fantasia Сlass are the largest ships of MSC Cruises, each of which is 333 meters long, 38 meters wide and weighs about 140,000 tons. MSC Splendida and MSC Fantasia have an average of 4,363 trips annually, while MSC Divina and MSC Preziosa each have 4,345 trips.

Imagine the harmony of technological innovation, thoughtful design, Mediterranean hospitality, delicious Italian cuisine and vibrant entertainment. You will find all this on board the Musica class liners, because the music is in the air there, and time flows with a carefree symphony of pleasure.
 
Lirica Class liners, although they make only 2,000 cruises annually, and do not differ in size (only 60,000 tons), attract their guests with a 5-star service and a meditative atmosphere. Immerse yourself in a sea of ​​stunning historical landscapes and classic décor, where marble floors are combined with solid wood and flowing draperies. Rest assured that the crew of the ships will pay as much attention to you as if you were the only passenger on board.

MSC Crociere Passenger Memo
 
BOARDING THE SHIP
 
Check-in on a boat usually starts 5 hours before departure. At the port where your cruise starts, you
Easily navigate the MSC Crociere logo signs. Remember that no later than an hour before departure, you must already be on board the ship. To board the ship, you need to take the following steps:
upon arrival at the port, take special baggage tags from MSC Crociere employees and stick them on the baggage. On the tags, you must indicate your name, surname, ship name, cabin number, date and port of departure in Latin letters;
hand over luggage with pre-pasted tags to porters who will deliver it to your cabin door (usually within an hour after sailing);
when check-in begins, go to the Check-in counter and present your passport and cruise ticket;
after checking the documents, passengers are issued a Cruise Card - a magnetic card, which is later used as a key to your cabin, a pass to the ship and a card to pay for services on board (excursions, bar, dry cleaning, cabin service, hairdresser, beauty salon, duty free shops and a photographer).
to receive the Cruise Card, you must register your own credit card (Visa, Mastercard or American Express) or make a cash deposit on the first days of the cruise;
go to the maitre d 'to reserve a table in the ship's restaurant and shift in which you will have lunch and dinner.
Attention! The cruise of tourists who do not show up for boarding is considered canceled with a penalty of 100%.
If, nevertheless, you are late for some reason, be sure to inform the escort, operator or agency so that they warn MSC Crociere that you will catch up with the ship at the next port. Otherwise, the cruise administration reserves the right to sell the unoccupied cabin.
 
LUGGAGE

CALCULATIONS ON BOARD
Prices on board MSC Crociere vessels are quoted in Euros when navigating the Mediterranean, Northern Europe, and when navigating in the Caribbean, South America, prices are quoted in US dollars. The Cashless System (non-cash payment) operates on board all ships. Thus, to pay for all expenses incurred on board, except for the casino, you will use the magnetic Cruise Card obtained upon check-in and verified by your credit card or cash deposit. When paying for any services or goods on board, you will be issued checks for signature, and all the amounts you spent will be recorded on the Cruise Card. We recommend that you keep receipts to avoid possible disagreements with the administration about the funds you spent. If during the cruise your Cruise Card balance (confirmed by cash deposit) approaches zero, you will be asked to add additional funds to the account. At the end of the cruise, the amount spent by you will be debited from your credit card (if the Cruise Card is confirmed by a credit card), or the rest of the deposit will be returned (in the case of cash guarantees).
