MSC Poesia's Holiday Cruise Discounts

(August 10, 2009) – When you ring in the holidays with family, Caribbean style on MSC Poesia’s Dec. 20, 2009 7-night Eastern Caribbean cruise, you can celebrate with big savings.

MSC Cruises’ “The More the Merrier” offer on a roundtrip cruise from Fort Lauderdale allows guests to pay the regular early booking rate on the first stateroom and 50 percent off the early booking rate on a second stateroom. The promotion is valid when four guests are booked in two staterooms.

For example, rates for interior staterooms begin at $699 per person for guests in the first stateroom, while the two guests in the second stateroom pay $349.50 each. Rates for an oceanview stateroom begin at $899 per person for the two guests in the first stateroom and $499.50 each for two guests in the second stateroom. Rates for a balcony begin at $1,049 each for the first stateroom and $524.50 each for the second stateroom.

Guests can be booked in the same category or in different categories; if they are booked in different categories, the 50 percent discount applies to the lower category.

“The More the Merrier” offer is valid on new bookings made by Aug. 31, 2009. All rates are cruise-only, per person. Government fees and taxes for all guests are additional. Both staterooms must be booked at the same time and with the same booking number.
