At MSC Cruises we want to make sure you can look forward to and plan your future holiday with total reassurance, this is why we have created our Stress Free Booking Programme which allows you to book your cruise with the most flexible conditions at great prices, so that you can cruise at ease.
If you either already booked a cruise or planning your next holiday, we understand that recent events may require you to
change your plans and we will offer you the best solution to holiday on board our beautiful ships. We want you to feel assured that we understand, and we can keep your holiday dreams a reality by making your bookings as flexible as possible.
To check the cruises that are eligible for this programme and the validity conditions please consult our website www.msccruises.com.au & www.msccruises.co.nz or consult your Travel Agent.
We inform you that we have enhanced our Health & Safety Measures, designed to meet and exceed guidelines provided by key international and regional regulatory bodies including the World Health Organization (WHO).
The enhanced health and safety measures are designed to ensure that MSC Cruises preserves both the onboard and ashore experience so that guests can fully enjoy their holiday.
The enhanced health and safety measures are designed to ensure that MSC Cruises preserves the holiday experience from booking to on board. MSC Cruises is continuously assessing developments in response to the COVID-19 situation and will adapt the health and safety measures as needed. Updates will be posted on MSC Cruises websites.
• Contact details of all guests required to provide all necessary information and important updates
• Prepaid onboard packages available for booking prior to the cruise to help guests avoid queues, secure space and save money compared to onboard prices
• Effortless web check-in will allow guests to receive cruise tickets, travel documentation and mandatory health questionnaires
• Health screening for all guests including a health questionnaire and a contactless temperature check
• Newly designed processes with assigned arrival times and enhanced sanitation measures
• Boarding denied to any guest showing signs of illness (details on our website) or in case of potential exposure to a suspected/confirmed case of COVID-19 in the 14 days prior to embarkation
• Regulated occupancy in public areas and venues
• Pre-booking for activities and entertainment
• Calling first before queuing up at a desk information
• New cleaning methods including the use of hospital-grade disinfectants, increased cleaning frequency, and a focus on high-traffic, frequently-touched areas
• Cabins cleaned daily, with additional deep sanitation at the end of each cruise

MSC Cruises will preserve the uniqueness of the onboard experience whilst ensuring that the health and safety of the guests and the crew is protected. MSC Cruises will organise activities to ensure that guests can practice responsible social distancing. Whenever social distancing cannot be met, in public places such as in the lifts and the theatre or when moving around the ship, guests will be asked to wear a face mask.
Guests will continue to enjoy rich experiences including award-winning shows, world-class dining, excursions, family activities, boutique shopping, beauty and fitness services, engaging events and much more.
Service will be adapted to respect social distancing: all meals and drinks will be served to guests at their table. Self-service at the buffet will be temporarily suspended, and the food will be plated and served to guests. For a contactless experience, guests will access restaurant and bar menus from their personal mobile device by scanning a QR code. To minimise risks, MSC Cruises has adapted the processes for ordering, preparing, delivering, consuming and paying for food and beverage services.
We recommend our guests go ashore with an MSC Cruises Shore Excursion, as they will adhere to the same high standards of health and safety as on board.
We’re introducing newly designed activities for smaller group sizes, with themed events, fun games, kids and family activities, talent shows, fitness, dance and more. Shows, activities and Kids Club will be available by reservation at no extra charge. Guests can browse the onboard programme digitally using MSC for Me* technologies and book activities by phone or in-person at dedicated desks. As the capacity of the theatre will be reduced to ensure social distancing, the entertainment schedule will be extended so all our guests can still enjoy a great variety of award-winning shows.
All open decks will be accessible and pools, whirlpool baths and the aquapark will be available with a reduced occupancy to ensure social distancing. Sunbeds will be separated in clusters, sanitised after every use, and deeper sanitation will take place every night.
A new onboard Information Centre will be available by phone to avoid queues. Remote desks will be set up on embarkation day to manage in-person questions. Guests should always call before going to any desk for information. In addition, guests will be encouraged to use digital services to find information such as MSC for Me*. Cashless payments will be highly recommended.

The MSC Foundation leads and advances all the MSC Group's life-changing conservation and humanitarian commitments, saving thousands of lives.
Our programmes include supporting researchers and marine experts to restore the coral reefs and to protect the marine ecosystem at Ocean Cay; supporting UNICEF in the Ivory Coast to foster a women-empowering recycling market that makes plastic waste into low-cost bricks to build much-needed classrooms.
In Haiti, we're supporting the Andrea Bocelli Foundation's life-changing Mobil Clinic.
In Senegal, we're supporting Mercy Ships to provide lifesaving operations in remote areas. In the Mediterranean, we're with Marevivo, raising youth awareness of marine protection and sea pollution.
At MSC Foundation we work to restore the critical balance between people and nature, using MSC's global reach and unique knowledge of the sea to take immediate action to protect and nurture the "blue planet", its people and cultural heritage.
The United Nations estimates all wild coral risks extinction from climate change this century. The Ocean Cay Marine Restoration Programme is our effort to prevent that. The MSC Foundation and a panel of conservation experts are working to protect, restore and nurturing 64 square miles of marine waters and ecosystems populated by one of the most vulnerable sets of coral species on the planet. At the same time, we are in the process to set up a biological laboratory for research and education purposes.
MSC Cruises has been committed to a path of sustainability since its inception in 2003 and the journey moves apace each and every day.
Every ship class that the Company introduces further enhances the level of environmental performance of the previous ship class and is equipped with an extensive range of state-of-the-art features and innovative technologies.
A major Company focus is on continuously improving the quality of air emissions and the entire fleet will be equipped with exhaust gas cleaning systems by the end of 2023, which reduces emissions significantly. All future ships will be equipped with active
emissions technology to create even cleaner results.
All ships in MSC Cruises’ fleet are equipped with modern and effective systems to reduce, recycle and reuse any waste that is generated on board. Moreover, in an effort to eliminate single-use
plastics from its shipboard operations, the Company has removed or replaced most plastic items on board. And every ship in the fleet has an Environmental Officer who is in charge of the onboard environmental management.

And it's just as easy to understand why exploring this wonderful region from the comfort of one of our ships makes the experience even more incredible. Imagine the spectacular sight of each lush, sun-soaked shoreline
appearing on the horizon and coming into fabulously vivid focus while you relax on the decks of MSC Divina, MSC Meraviglia or the spectacular new MSC Seashore, with its innovative wraparound promenade of alfresco dining and leisure venues.
With every port of call, there are new wonders to discover. The picture-postcard beaches of white sand and palm trees, the warm turquoise waters and the colourful coral reefs are just the start. There is also a treasure trove of ancient monuments, cultural riches and
mouthwatering cuisine to discover.

Picture an exclusive, one-of-a-kind island in the Bahamas with eight different beaches of idyllic white sand, a traditional Bahamian village, comfortable amenities and exciting activities until late in the night, all stringently respecting the environment.

As the sun sets, move from your spa cabana to one of the bars for a cocktail and live music or a DJ set.

For specific information on documentation requirements, visit our website https://www.msccruises.com.au/en-au/Manage-YourBooking/Web-Check-In.aspx or https://www.msccruises. co.nz/en-nz/Manage-Your-Booking/Web-Check-In.aspx.

We politely refer Guests with disabilities or reduced mobility to Clause nr 7 of the Booking Conditions. Any Guest with a condition that may affect fitness to travel, or any other special requirements, is asked to provide full details by filling in the appropriate form at the time of booking, and may be asked to submit a doctor’s certificate. The Company can refuse the booking or the carriage of any Guest who is deemed to be unfit for travel or whose condition may constitute a danger to themselves, the vessel, aircraft and/or other Guests on the grounds of safety. Any specific transport and/ or lodging and/or assistance needs must be communicated at the time the reservation is made, and are subject to availability. Ships are not equipped with specialised rooms, equipment or medical assistance. MSC Cruises is not responsible for any consequences resulting from a Guests condition, whether or not it is evident. No refund or indemnity is owed to any Guest who cannot begin or continue the trip due to their own condition. See the Ship Doctor as soon as possible if you experience any gastroenteritis symptoms (diarrhoea, vomiting) over the 48h prior to boarding.
Pregnant women must, at the time of booking, produce a medical certificate from a doctor confirming the week of pregnancy and their fitness to travel on board a cruise ship for the period of the cruise and for the actual itinerary.

For security reasons, visitors are not permitted on board.
In line with global standards, smoking areas on board are fewer than non-smoking areas and are indicated by signage and ashtrays. Smoking (including e-cigarettes) is not permitted in cabins, on cabin balconies and anywhere not indicated by clear signage and ashtrays. Smoking where not designated is subject to a deep cleaning fee, continued smoking in non-smoking areas can ultimately lead to disembarkation. We remind you that throwing cigarette butts or anything else overboard at sea is strictly prohibited by international maritime laws.
Can I book my sunbed?
No, sunbeds are available on board at no charge, but they cannot be booked. Guests are kindly requested not to occupy them with personal items during any absences of over 30 minutes. Beach towels for use at the pools are available in your cabin. These should be left in your cabin at the end of your cruise. Missing pool towels may be charged to your account.
For a small charge, the exclusive Solarium offers a private sunbathing and relaxation area.
Safe deposit boxes are provided in all cabins. The Company assumes no responsibility for loss or theft of money or valuables stored in the cabin, in luggage or left unattended.
A cruise isn’t just one of the most relaxing ways to see the world, it’s also one of the safest. That’s because every cruise ship has to be built, equipped and operated along and beyond the strict requirements of the international maritime treaty known as the Safety of Life at Sea (SOLAS) Convention, developed by the International Maritime Organization, the UN agency responsible for shipping. At the beginning of each cruise, crew members guide all Guests through a mandatory drill (or briefing, in secondary ports) to ensure they are familiar with what to do and where to go in the unlikely event of an emergency. During this drill/briefing, additional safety information (how to put on a life jacket, etc.) is presented in various languages. In addition, our Officers and crew complete extensive training and conduct various weekly and monthly safety and security drills, in preparation for the very unlikely event of an emergency. Our fleet complies with the requirements of the Cruise Vessel Security and Safety Act (CVSSA 2010). Guests are protected by a comprehensive system of security, including the MSC Cruises Access Control and Screening System, which requires proof of identity to access with tickets and on a pre-approved list. Also all luggage must pass through strict check-points,
cabins are protected by locks and individually equipped with safe boxes, public areas are monitored by cameras, and highly trained Ship Security Guards continuously patrol the ship and are on emergency call 24/7.
MSC Cruises SA applies a strict environmental policy on board its ships and ashore. Each ship in our fleet has a dedicated Environmental Officer who oversees environmental compliance and implementation of procedures. Our ships are equipped with various waste separation bins and we encourage our Guests to always dispose their garbage in the corresponding containers. Throwing rubbish into the sea is strictly forbidden by MSC Cruises SA rules and internal laws, and any violation may result in a fine and or legal action.
We also ask our Guests to respect the environment at the destinations we call. Let’s all play our part to protect the earth and the oceans.
Yes. The Master of any vessel can decide whether to deviate from the advertised or ordinary itinerary, to delay or anticipate any sailing, to omit or change scheduled ports of call, to arrange for substantially equivalent carriage by another vessel, to tow or be towed or assist other vessels or to perform any similar act which he will consider advisable or necessary for the safety of the Guest, of the vessel and crew.

With this booking number and your personal data access to the personal area of the website at www.msccruises.com.au or www.msccruises.co.nz where you can manage your booking and personalize your cruise.

Yes, the company reserves the right to assign the passenger a cabin other than the one provided as long as they have similar characteristics.
Guests are encouraged to limit their checked luggage to two suitcases per person (not exceeding 90x75x43 cm in size and 23 kg in weight per bag), and two pieces of hand luggage per person (not exceeding 56x45x25 cm in size and 23 kg in weight per bag).
On all MSC Grand Voyages to/from The Caribbean, South America, South Africa and The United Arab Emirates, the above mentioned guidelines represent the maximum limit allowed per person. In any case, the maximum amount of luggage in each cabin must not exceed 100 kg and/or 8 pieces among all passengers in the same cabin.
Any piece of luggage exceeding the allowance will not be accepted at Check-In. Guests intending to exceed these limits are invited to contact MSC Cruises directly or via their travel agents at the time of booking for information on how to ship luggage in excess of the free luggage allowance separately via freight or cargo, at an additional charge.
Prams and wheelchairs are always allowed on board, but must be declared at the time of booking confirmation. For cruises including flight connections, please follow any instructions given by the airline.
Guests travelling to the departure port by air should check the size and luggage weight limitations at the time of booking. Airlines reserve the right to charge a supplement for excess luggage. MSC Cruises accepts no responsibility for issues arising during airport departure or arrival. In the unfortunate event of a luggage handling error by the airline, we offer a luggage recovery service.
Port Security has the duty of searching Guests and luggage to confiscate any article internationally known as dangerous for the safety and security of Guests, crew and ship. Such items will be confiscated and not returned. If explosive material, guns or illegal drugs are detected, law enforcement will be immediately alerted.
Examples of such items can be alcohol, firearms, sharp objects such as knives, blades and scissors, flammable and explosive material, prohibited items with heating elements or open flames (such as clothing irons, kettles, hotplates, candles, incense), drones.
We reserve the right to remove any food and beverages present in Guests’ luggage.
If purchased in a port of call or aboard, these will be returned the evening before disembarkation. Please also note that guests are not permitted to bring unpackaged food on board.
What happens if my luggage gets lost? What if this happens when reaching the port by air?
Please note that any valuable luggage travels at your own risk. MSC suggests to take an adequate travel insurance. Should our guests lose their luggage while travelling to the port by air, we will make every effort to track your luggage in collaboration with the Lost & Found offices of each airport. Where possible, we will have it sent directly to the ship at one of the subsequent ports of call. In order to help you trace any lost luggage in the most efficient way, we ask you to present a copy of the P.I.R. (Property Irregularity Report) prepared at the Lost Property Office of the airport where you reported the luggage missing.
What is the dress code on board and what should I pack for my cruise?
Make sure you pack appropriate clothing for the various activities you will undertake during your cruise, such as parties, dinners, sports and shore excursions.
• For everyday life on board, casual wear is recommended.
• For informal evenings, we recommend summery dresses for women and a lightweight jacket for men.
• For Elegant evenings, the dress code is more formal. We suggest a dinner jacket, or dark suit and tie for men and a dressy outfit, formal gown, or cocktail dress for women.
