MSC Cruises has launched its 2024 ‘Stay & Cruise’ program, giving guests the chance to turn a seven-night cruise into an extended nine or 10-day holiday.
The offer is available on various Northern Hemisphere sailings in the Mediterranean and Caribbean. A total of 10 MSC ships are now offering the new program across four destinations: Athens, Venice, Rome and Miami.
The program includes a new add-on package with an additional two-night accommodation with breakfast included at a four-star hotel in Athens, Venice and Rome or a three-star hotel in Miami.
The offer also features private ground transfers including from the airport to the hotel and from the hotel to the ship for guests staying before the cruise. Similarly, for guests staying after the cruise, transfers include from the ship to the hotel and from the hotel to the airport.
For travellers embarking on a Western or Eastern Mediterranean cruise and are looking to further discover the capital city of 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 those sailing in the Eastern Mediterranean, the add-on package for extended exploration of 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 prolong their holiday of discovery 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.
