Although MSC is relatively new to American cruisers, the history of MSC Cruises goes back three centuries as part of the family-owned Mediterranean Shipping Company. Worldwide, MSC is the third-largest cruise brand, and the market share leader in Europe, South America, Southern Africa and the Gulf region.

MSC Cruises offer a luxury experience at a price point closer to the more popular cruise lines. You’ll likely find more international travelers on an MSC Cruise, thanks to MSC’s popularity across the pond. MSC’s ships offer something for everyone– those who are looking for a luxury experience will certainly find it, while families looking for a fun vacation will easily find a more traditional cruise experience.
