MSC Cruises extends Cruise with Confidence to summer 2022
The guarantee give guests "extra security before and during the cruise”
MSC Cruises has extended its Cruise with Confidence guarantee to cover all sailings to the end of its summer 2022 season to “give guests extra security before and during the cruise”.
The programme encompasses the line’s flexible booking policy, “robust yet simple” vaccination and testing requirements, and return to independent shore excursions.
The Cruise with Confidence promise will cover all new and existing bookings for all sailings through to the end of summer 2022.
Gianni Onorato, CEO, MSC Cruises, said, “We were able to lead the restart of our industry in August last year thanks to a comprehensive and flexible health and safety protocol that was designed to adapt to the evolution of the pandemic ashore and has since set the standard across the travel and hospitality sector. With this we were able to continue to offer the highest level of protection to our guests, crew and communities where our ships call to responsibly and safely welcome on our ships over one million guests for their holiday at sea.
“With the pandemic continuing to evolve, we understand the importance of having clear information to reassure our guests that they can book a cruise with confidence and with flexibility to give them total peace of mind. We are thus extending our successful ‘Cruise with Confidence’ guarantee to all cruises through summer 2022 to continue to offer booked and new guests a safe, flexible and enjoyable holiday option. Reinforced with the required COVID-19 protection plan, this insurance gives guests extra security before and during the cruise. Finally, we also see the return of a full experience ashore with the reintroduction of independent shore excursions where local regulations allow this – there really has been no better time to book a cruise vacation.”
All MSC crew are vaccinated and regularly tested. Guests aged 12 and over are vaccinated, and all guests aged two and over need to submit a negative test prior to boarding.
Booking flexibility means that all cruises can be rescheduled free of charge up to 15 days prior sailing, for any reason.
All guests are covered by the Covid-19 protection insurance, including events such as testing positive before boarding or at any point during their holiday.
