Default Solo Cruisers

HI, I chose MSC for my first cruise because of the fantastic no single supplement deal for a solo on the TA sailings. Seems to me many other lines are missing a trick here as this is a growing market it seems. Is there any chance that MSC might expand this option on their other cruises. Thanks.

Whilst MSC does have a single supplement policy of 50%, we regularly make sure to offer special promotions throughout the year in which single guests pay no supplement whatsoever, and we will certainly continue to place emphasis on these promotions where we can.

Thanks you for answering, I, and I am sure many others appreciate the chance to cruise without the single supplement, and will be keeping a close eye out for your future offers. I am so looking forward to my first MSC experience. Thanks.

Hi Mr Vago, it is very good to hear from you that MSC offers special promotions throughout the year in which there is no supplement at all for solo guests. Could you please kindly inform of these policy to your MSC offices in South America. There seem not to be informed about those offers and always charge the solo supplement.
