MSC Cruises is offering up to 30% off selected sailings in its 2026 Black Friday Preview. With Black Friday approaching, the cruise line is giving travellers the chance to swap the shopping rush for a holiday.
All details correct at the time of publication (3 November 2026).
Research from MSC Cruises has found that more than two-thirds (69%) of Brits suffer from the winter blues. Almost all (95%) say it is important to have something to look forward to during the colder months. More than three-quarters (76%) also say that looking at sunny destinations gives them a mental and emotional boost.
MSC Cruises’ Black Friday Preview gives travellers the chance to turn that inspiration into a future getaway.
More Than 1,000 Deals
The Preview features more than 1,000 early Black Friday deals. Destinations include the Caribbean, Mediterranean, Canary Islands and Northern Europe. There are also sailings from Southampton.
Travellers can choose from cruise-only and fly-cruise packages. Options include the exclusive comforts of MSC Yacht Club for those seeking a more premium experience at sea.
The Black Friday Preview runs from 30 October to 8 December 2026. Travellers can save up to 30% per person on Inside, Ocean View, Balcony and Suite cabins. MSC Yacht Club cabins are available with savings of up to 20%.
Antonio Paradiso, Vice President of International Sales at MSC Cruises, said: “Black Friday is often all about the rush to buy more, but we want to give Brits something different to look forward to, the chance to escape, explore somewhere new and make lasting memories at sea.
“Cruising offers fantastic value, with the opportunity to discover multiple destinations in one holiday and so much already included in the price, from dining and entertainment to activities for the whole family. With savings of up to 30% across 25 ships, we’re making it even easier for travellers to plan their next adventure.
