Johannesburg - The just-published 2015-16 Cruise Industry News Annual Report declared MSC Cruises the No 1 cruise line in Europe, including in the Mediterranean.

The Report, which is one of the most reputable sources of information for the industry, stated MSC Cruises conquered the leading rank in the industry, thanks to a deployed capacity across the continent of about 1.1 million passengers.

MSC Cruises chief executive Gianni Onorato said: “We are particularly proud of this achievement. For it, we wish to thank all our guests whom, with their choice, recognised the quality of our product and offering thus making MSC Cruises the number one cruise line now also in Europe.

“MSC Cruises is a Europe-based company with bold global ambitions; we sail to many select destinations worldwide, from the Caribbean to South America and South Africa. But Europe and the Mediterranean remain at the heart of our business, even as we grow and open up new geographical possibilities – Cuba being just the most recent example.”

”We will continue to build on this position of strength in Europe to ensure we remain the cruise line of choice for more than 150 nationalities every year, in Europe, in the Mediterranean and in other markets, where our distinct cruise experiences set us apart.”

Swiss-based MSC Cruises SA is the world’s largest privately-owned cruise line. In addition to being the market leader in Europe, including in the Mediterranean, the company benefits from a leadership position in the South American and South African markets.
