MSC Cruises Adds Flexibility, Transparency to Specialty Dining Packages
by Bruce Parkinson
Specialty dining on MSC Cruises is being simplified.
MSC Cruises says it is bringing greater convenience, value and ease to its specialty restaurant offering worldwide with the launch of updated specialty restaurant experiences.
The cruise line is introducing updated specialty restaurant menus and packages across its entire fleet, making it easier for guests to enjoy the range of gastronomic experiences on board and offering a fixed-fee menu for greater value and transparency.

Highlights of the new specialty dining experience include:
One menu, one price: Guests will now be able to choose from a rich variety of dishes out of the full restaurant menu, for one fixed price. This not only provides greater variety, but also greater value and transparency, making specialty restaurants more accessible to everyone.
Menus will allow guests to choose at least one starter, one main and one dessert for a fixed fee. Menus will also offer extra-special dishes, such as Ozaki Wagyu beef, for a small supplement charge.
Flexible, customizable dining packages: Guests can now pre-purchase packages with one to four specialty dining experiences, which are more customizable than ever before. These are fully flexible and can be used to repeat favourite restaurants, giving guests freedom to create their ideal onboard culinary itinerary.
Greater value with advance purchase: Guests who purchase their specialty dining package before their cruise can enjoy savings of up to 20% off the price.
“With increasing demand from our guests for flexibility, transparency, and personalization, this upgrade further strengthens our culinary product, offering today’s cruisers what they expect and deserve,” saidGeorg Schmickler, SVP On-Board Revenues.
Stéphane Franchini, Senior Director of Food and Beverage Product, had this to say:
“Simplified single-price menus mean greater transparency for guests, and customizable packages add flexibility to create a seamless dining experience for our guests. With these enhancements, MSC Cruises continues to redefine dining at sea, offering guests an unforgettable gastronomic journey with world-class cuisine and ultimate versatility.”
The new specialty restaurant packages are available to book now. Further enhancements are also being planned to make the experience even more streamlined and are expected to be announced at a later date.
