Com 2 navios: MSC Cruises launches new itineraries by the end of the year

MSC Cruises enriches MSC Magnifica itineraries and extends MSC Grandiosa itineraries until the end of the year.

The ship will have an even bigger and more enriched itinerary when it returns to the sea now with a new start date, no dia 19 de Outubro, making available a series of 7 cruzeiros, including one of 8 nights for Christmas, com partida a 18 December Genoa, Itália.

Simultaneamente, the company also extended the itineraries of the MSC Grandiosa until the end of the year, including the Christmas departure of the ship from Genoa, no dia 20 de Dezembro de 2020. MSC Grandiosa is currently offering cruises from 7 nights with boarding at the Italian ports of Genoa, Civitavecchia, Naples and Palermo, still stopping at the port of Valletta, em Malta.

The new MSC Magnifica cruises span both the Western and Eastern Mediterranean and will have Genoa as a port of embarkation, with stopovers in Livorno for the cities of Florence and Pisa, Messina in Sicily, Valletta in Malta, Piraeus to the city of Athens and Katakolon to Olympia, in Greece and Civitavecchia, before returning to Genoa.

After completing these now updated itineraries, MSC Magnifica will hold the MSC World Cruise in 2021, for the third consecutive year.

MSC Magnifica will follow the steps of MSC Grandiosa's return to sea, which is now taking its fourth consecutive cruise of 7 noites, Western Mediterranean. The ship resumed operations in August following approval, by national and local authorities in Italy, in Greece and Malta, the Company's new Health and Safety operational protocol, designed to protect guests, crew and communities where the ship calls.

The new MSC Cruises protocol, which will also be implemented for the benefit of guests and crew on board the MSC Magnifica, includes universal screening for everyone before boarding the ship, high hygiene and cleaning measures throughout the ship, social distancing, use of face mask in public areas and innovative technology to assist in tracking and monitoring on board.

The protocol's strong and strict health and safety standards are similarly applied to all shore excursions where guests are on a “social bubble” in order to protect their well-being and local communities.

As a result of the updated itinerary that has just been announced, os 4 cruzeiros de 7 nights aboard the MSC Magnifica departing from Bari, Itália, entre 26 de Setembro e 24 de Outubro, were cancelled.

No entanto, guests affected by canceled cruises will be re-protected on another cruise, in particular at the MSC Grandiosa, currently sailing the Western Mediterranean, or receive credit for a future cruise on any ship, with any itinerary, by the end of 2021.
