MSC Cruises Unveils A New Era Of Speciality Dining Across The Fleet

Wednesday, May 21, 2025 0

MSC Cruises is bringing greater convenience, value and ease to its speciality restaurant offering worldwide with the launch of the line’s updated speciality restaurant experiences.

The cruise line is introducing updated speciality restaurant menus and packages across its entire fleet, making it easier than ever before for guests to enjoy the range of gastronomic experiences on board and offering a fixed-fee menu for greater value and transparency.

At the core of this new approach is putting guest choice and simplicity first, meaning greater value, variety and ease for guests, creating a seamless dining experience from start to finish.

Highlights of the new speciality dining experience include:

One menu, one price: Guests will now be able to choose from a rich variety of dishes out of the full restaurant menu, for one fixed price. This not only provides greater variety but also greater value and transparency, making speciality restaurants more accessible to everyone. Menus will allow guests to choose at least one starter, one main and one dessert for a fixed fee. Menus will also offer extra-special dishes, such as Ozaki Wagyu beef, for a small supplement charge.

Flexible, customizable dining packages: Guests can now pre-purchase packages with one to four speciality dining experiences, which are more customizable than ever before. These are fully flexible and can be used to repeat favourite restaurants*, giving guests freedom to create their ideal onboard culinary itinerary.

Greater value with advance purchase: Guests who purchase their speciality dining package before their cruise can enjoy savings of up to 20% off the price.

Georg Schmickler, Senior Vice President On-Board Revenues at MSC Cruises, said: “with increasing demand from our guests for flexibility, transparency, and personalisation, this upgrade further strengthens our culinary product, offering today’s cruisers what they expect and deserve.”

Stéphane Franchini, MSC Cruises Senior Director of Food and Beverage Product commented: “Simplified single-price menus mean greater transparency for guests, and customisable packages add flexibility to create a seamless dining experience for our guests.

With these enhancements, MSC Cruises continues to redefine dining at sea, offering guests an unforgettable gastronomic journey with world-class cuisine and ultimate versatility.”

MSC Cruises is known for offering unique and authentic gastronomic experiences on board its modern and glamorous ships. Using quality ingredients, guests can taste traditional favourites and sumptuous new flavours from around the world in a way that suits them – whether it be in the elegant main restaurants, more relaxed buffets or signature speciality restaurants.

The new specialty restaurant packages are available to book now. Further enhancements are also being planned to make the experience even more streamlined and are expected to be announced at a later date.
