Leonardo Massa, Managing Director of MSC Cruises, added:

“After 10 years since the last collaboration with AC Milan, we are ready to write a new chapter together. The partnership signed today fits perfectly on the path traced together in the past and which we have pursued over the years and today sees us side by side with companies that represent Italian excellence in the world as we do. The two companies share a long historical tradition and a common global vision, as well as ambitious goals to be achieved with tenacity, commitment and dedication. AC Milan is one of the most important clubs in the world and can boast a list of successes both in Italy and abroad. 

“The history of Milan, with its international profile but at the same time linked to Italy and the city of Milan, perfectly matches with MSC Cruises. In fact, our Company sails all over the world, but always maintains strong links with the ports and territories of reference. Furthermore, like Milan, MSC Cruises boasts many  firsts and is preparing to experience a record-breaking 2023, with a significant increase of passengers, which is set to reach 4 million only in the Italian ports.“
