This big giveaway is the perfect motivation for agents to boost sales this Wave season and seize the chance to win an extraordinary holiday experience with MSC Cruises.”

Steve continues: “Our Wave season comes loaded with incredible all-inclusive offers for our customers, featuring unlimited drinks, port taxes, and gratuities. With up to 78 remarkable destinations on offer and double the fly & cruise packages compared to 2023, I’m confident this Wave season will be our most successful yet.”

“Our travel trade partners are the backbone of our business. Throughout 2024, we’re committed to developing successful partnerships and offering exclusive incentives for our valued trade partners.”
