My cruise has been cancelled: which benefits am I entitled to if I book my new cruise onboard any available confirmed itinerary?2022-02-08T11:59:13+02:00

FFor all cruises cancelled by MSC we will offer you:

• A Future Cruise Credit voucher equal to the value of the amount collected by MSC Cruises for the cancelled cruise, to be used for any future sailing, as per Terms and Conditions detailed in your voucher. In addition, you will receive an onboard credit (refundable and valid during any period of the year) for your onboard shopping. For all bookings related to cancelled cruises, MSC Cruises will issue a voucher with a value equal to the amount already paid to MSC Cruises, net of refunds, and will include the on board credit granted as a compensation for the cancelled cruise.
For bookings confirmed but not yet paid, MSC Cruises will issue a voucher with a value equal to the onboard credit granted as a compensation for the cancelled cruises. The voucher will be sent anyway, however, no future cruise credit will be shown as no payment has been received from MSC. Guests booked in single cabins will receive 50% of the standard onboard credit mentioned above, based on the length of their cruise. If you are entitled to any different compensation for your cancelled cruise, you will be informed via direct email or through your Travel Agent.
