Emirates and MSC Cruises have extended their partnership for another two seasons. This move solidifies Dubai’s standing as a premier cruise hub. This announcement was made at the Arabian Travel Market in Dubai, reinforcing a decade-long collaboration between the two entities.
This partnership aims to enhance guest experiences and boost Dubai’s cruise tourism growth. For the next two years, travelers can avail the Fly&Cruise holiday package with MSC Cruises, which offers return Emirates flights from 21 European and American airports.
