Cruise Europe at Sea takes place in February on board MSC Splendida
Cruise Europe (CE) is taking to the sea on board MSC Splendida on February 7, providing its members with a four-day immersive educational on both the cruise business and experience.
Embarkation takes place in Barcelona where members will be able to join a tour of Barcelona port before setting sail for Marseilles and a guided tour of the city, the basilica, the palace and the old port.
As well as regional meetings on board, there will be a visit to Costa Cruises’ offices in Genoa to meet president Mario Zanetti and the itinerary planning, tours and development team.
After a stroll around the port city, MSC Cruises’ Svetlana Cuk, Linden Coppell and Jon Olav Stedje will be conducting a workshop onboard focusing on community engagement, shorex and sustainability.
Before disembarking in Naples at lunchtime, general secretary of Cruise Lines International Association Europe, Nikos Mertzanidis, will give a presentation on ‘Defending the cruise ecosystem in Brussels: the value, infrastructure and the road to net-zero’.
To be followed by EPI ambassador, Annfinn Helm, on ‘Environmental Port Index: With EPI towards a greener future’.
This is a first for the association and already has 100 members signed up for the carefully-curated programme.
