MSC Cruises will offer sailings in the Southern Caribbean from 05 Dec, with MSC Seaview to provide seven- and 14-night voyages out of St. Maarten and Barbados.

The line’s amended itineraries offer up to 12 hours of extended stays at each destination to allow holidayers to make the most of each destination.

With authorities in Martinique and Guadeloupe having decided cruise ships are not allowed yet, the updated itineraries reflect the ports that have guaranteed access, and allow for a full day at each destination.

“The Southern Caribbean is an area much loved by cruisers from around the world as well as local guests from this region and we have worked hard to find alternative options for the itinerary that would allow us to confirm our usual winter season here,” said Chief Executive Gianni Onorato.

“We would like to particularly thank our airline partners who have amended their charter flight schedules to serve the new itinerary to make it accessible for our guests.

“For this, we are still able to offer our guests an incredible cruise holiday this winter, calling at some of the most beautiful islands in the South Caribbean,” he said.
