MSC Cruises, the contemporary brand of the Cruise Division of MSC Group, today announced that MSC Bellissima, one of the line\u2019s most modern ships, will sail 21 Red Sea voyages from Jeddah, the commercial hub of Saudi Arabia, between the end of July and late October.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
MSC Bellissima is the largest cruise ship ever to sail the waters of the Red Sea and the vessel arrived at the weekend in Jeddah to prepare for her maiden season.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The ship, which first came into services in 2019, will offer 3- and 4-night cruises to Safaga for Luxor, Egypt or Aqaba for Petra, Jordan before returning to her Saudi homeport.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The summer sailings will add to MSC Cruises\u2019 previously announced winter 2021\/22 Red Sea voyages from Jeddah starting in November.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Pierfrancesco Vago, Executive Chairman, MSC Cruises said: \u201cAs the tourism industry of Saudi Arabia grows progressively for its own residents and international visitors, we at MSC Cruises are looking forward to make a positive and lasting contribution as more people explore and discover the rich heritage and incredible cultural attractions it has to offer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cWith our cruises this summer from Jeddah of MSC Bellissima and a ship dedicated for the winter season in the Red Sea we are committed to serve holidaymakers with the very best cruise experiences. This, we believe, will accelerate the attractiveness of holidays at sea in the region and significantly help in the growth of tourism.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
MSC Bellissima will be the eighth MSC Cruises\u2019 ship to resume sailings with passengers on board with a further three vessels preparing to start future voyages, which will see half of the Company\u2019s fleet back at sea by the end of summer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
