This October, MSC Cruises is making it easy to fall in love with cruising on MSC Divina, one of the line's newest and most ultra-modern ships that will sail from Miami to the Caribbean year-round starting in November.

As part of National Plan a Cruise Month, MSC has announced that it is offering guests who book a Caribbean 2016-2017 cruise on MSC Divina up to $600 shipboard credit, plus additional beverage and dining packages, depending on the category of stateroom booked. The shipboard credit can be used on a variety of onboard items including spa treatments, specialty restaurants or shore excursions.

As an added bonus for families, the deal also includes Kids Sail Free on popular family travel dates such as President Week/Spring Break (Feb 13. 2016); Memorial Day (May 28, 2016); School Ending (June 11 and June 18); and Labor Day (Sept. 3, 2016). Additional dates apply.

#CruiseSmile

To further celebrate National Plan a Cruise Month, the cruise industry is launching #CruiseSmile in which consumers have a chance to win a cruise vacation from different cruise lines every day during the month of October.

As part of the sweepstakes, on Oct. 1 and Oct. 30, MSC Cruises will be giving away seven-night Caribbean cruise vacations with balcony stateroom accommodations aboard MSC Divina. Winners of MSC's cruise giveaways will be able to select from 2016 Caribbean sailings on MSC Divina (blackout dates apply).

Entering the #CruiseSmile sweepstakes is easy. Consumers interested in winning a 2016 cruise on MSC Divina simply need to submit a photo featuring a "cruise smile" at CruiseSmile.org, or post their "cruise smile" on Twitter or Instagram using #CruiseSmile and #Sweepstakes on either Oct. 1 or Oct. 30. For more information on contest rules, visit www.cruisesmile.org.

In addition, in honor of the #CruiseSmile campaign, MSC is providing all guests who book its National Plan a Cruise Month promotion between now and Nov. 15 a free 5x7 onboard photo per stateroom.
