MSC Splendida became the latest MSC Cruises ship to restart summer sailings, with her seven-night itinerary to the Eastern Mediterranean from the northern Italian port of Trieste.
Calls are to Ancona, Italy; Dubrovnik, Croatia; Bari, Italy; the Greek island of Corfu and Kotor in Montenegro or Split in Croatia before the vessel returns to Trieste with embarkation available in each of the Italian ports. Ancona was recently added to the itinerary for guests with an opportunity to discover Marche region. Guests will enjoy throughout the Schengen area of Europe, especially Germany, Austria and Switzerland given the relative ease of ground transport links to embark in Trieste.
MSC Splendida offers a wide choice of restaurants, bars and lounges, four swimming pools, a fully equipped gym and luxurious spa, award-winning family activities and facilities as well as the MSC Yacht Club with 71 spacious suites and personalised 24x7 butler service.
Four daily transfer shuttles for MSC Cruises guests will run from Venice?s Marco Polo airport and one from the city centre to the cruise terminal in Trieste offering a convenient service for embarking guests who have flown to Italy from Europe. Prices per person are ?25 one way and ?50 for both ways.
MSC Splendida represents the Company?s fifth ship to resume cruise holidays this summer. MSC Grandiosa and MSC Seaside are sailing in the West Mediterranean, MSC Orchestra is operating in the East Mediterranean and flagship MSC Virtuosa is cruising in the UK for British guests only.
MSC Magnifica will resume sailings on June 20 from Italy for voyages in the East Mediterranean, MSC Seaview will restart on July 3 from Kiel, Germany for sailings in the Baltic Sea to Sweden and Estonia followed by MSC Seashore making her maiden sailing from the end of July in the West Mediterranean.
