The line has increased commission rates from 5% to 15% for northern European sailings during summer 2023 and winter 2023/2024 to encourage agents to book shore excursions.

MSC’s newest flagship Euribia – which is due to launch in June – is included in the promotion, as well as Preziosa, Poesia and Fantasia, and the company’s UK-based ship, Virtuosa.


Steve Williams, director of sales UK and Ireland for MSC, said: "We have shore excursions to suit every taste and for all ages.

"Whether our guests prefer adventure, nature, culture or history, they can create lifelong memories on one of our incredible shore excursion packages."
