MSC Cruises SA launches European Summer 2015 rates

"MSC Cruises believes life should be measured in moments" notes Allan Foggitt, Marketing and Sales Director, MSC Cruises SA, "and those moments should be savoured, so when booking a holiday, we invite you to think not just about the kind of cabin or suite you prefer, but also about the kind of cruise experience you desire."

Commencing from the European Summer of 2015, each of the new fare categories offers not only a different choice of accommodation but also a different set of on board 'Experiences' to enrich any cruise.

By identifying the kind of cruise experience each customer is looking for and guiding them to choose the corresponding fare category, customer satisfaction and increased sales revenue is achieved.
