MSC Seascape, MSC Cruises’ latest flagship, reached New York City on Monday 5 December in advance of her Naming Ceremony. Taking place on Wednesday 7 December at the Manhattan Cruise Terminal, MSC Seascape will be the line’s first ship to be named in New York City, in recognition of the addition of New York as a new homeport in April 2023 – bringing even more choice of North American embarkation ports and itineraries for MSC Cruises guests from both North America and the rest of the world.
To celebrate the occasion, a number of lucky travel partners, joined MSC Cruises AU/NZ on Sydney Harbour. Hosted by Lisa Teiotu, Sales Director, MSC Cruises AU/NZ, travel partners were treated to champagne and canapes aboard a luxury yacht. A sunny Sydney day allowed travel partners to engage in a true connection with the sea, to be educated on MSC Cruises’ latest fleet addition.
