MSC Cruises has expanded its Saudi Arabia program by 21 cruises during this year’s northern summer.
The line’s MSC Bellissima will homeport in Jeddah, sailing three- and four-night cruises to Egypt and Jordan, complementing the cruise line’s previously announced winter 2021/22 Red Sea itineraries (CW 03 May).
Bellissima will be the eighth MSC ship to restart passenger operations, with a further three preparing to start future voyages by the end of the northern summer – at which point half of MSC’s fleet will be back at sea.
She will be the largest cruise ship ever to sail the waters of the Red Sea, having arrived in Jeddah on the weekend to prepare for her maiden season.
“As the tourism industry of Saudi Arabia grows progressively for its own residents and international visitors, we at MSC Cruises are looking forward to making a positive and lasting contribution as more people explore and discover the rich heritage and incredible cultural attractions it has to offer,” said MSC Cruises Executive Chairman Pierfrancesco Vago.
“With our cruises this summer from Jeddah of MSC Bellissima and a ship dedicated for the winter season in the Red Sea we are committed to serve holidaymakers with the very best cruise experiences.”
