Last Thursday [5 January 2023], MSC Cruises wished bon voyage to guests aboard MSC Poesia and MSC Magnifica as the two ships departed from Genoa, Italy for simultaneous world cruises – an industry first.
MSC Cruises’ Executive Chairman Pierfranceso Vago says Qatar will form a “very important destination” for the contemporary cruise line’s growth into new markets, confirming this season’s deployment from Doha is not a one-off to capitalise on World Cup demand.
