Costa Cruises signs three-year deal with airline
Costa Cruises has signed a three-year deal with Italian airline Neos following a growing demand for fly/cruise packages.
The cruise line says the partnership will connect passengers to its cruise ships in the Caribbean, Dubai and Northern Europe.
The flights will be allocated for Costa passengers from 2016-2018, connecting the airports of Milan Malpensa, Verona, Bologna, Rome Fiumicino and Catania to cruise destinations such as Guadeloupe Pointe-à-Pitre in the Caribbean, Warnemunde-Rostock and Stockholm in the Baltic Sea and Norwegian fjords, and Dubai in the UAE and Oman.
Costa cruisers will be able to drop off their suitcases at the airport with delivery direct to their cabins on board ship.
Costa Cruises president Neil Palomba said: "The new agreement with Neos, an Italian partner we’ve been working with for some years now, marks the continued expansion of Costa Cruises’ fly & cruise formula, which is designed to truly meet the demands of our customers."
