Why a cruise works well for families and groups
On a cruise you unpack once and wake up somewhere new. Your room, meals and entertainment move with you, so you see several countries without repacking or changing hotels.
What is usually included on board
On our MSC cruise packages, the cruise includes:
- Your cabin
- All meals: breakfast, lunch, dinner and tea-time snacks or evening tea
- Entertainment on board, including shows by international artists
- Swimming pools and other on-board facilities listed on the package page
Cabin type differs by package, so check whether yours is an interior or a sea view cabin.
What costs extra
These are not included and are worth budgeting for:
- Cruise gratuity, payable on board
- Alcoholic and non-alcoholic drinks, unless pre-purchased
- Room service and internet
- Spa, casino and shopping
- Activity tickets on shore and visa fees
Flights and transfers
Our cruise packages include international flights and the transfers listed on each package page, so you do not need to arrange the journey to the port yourself. Check the page for the airports each package departs from.
