  • Effective 21 July 2025, the Greek Government will introduce a new cruise passenger fee as part of their Sustainable Tourism Programmed. This mandatory fee applies to all guests, regardless of age, who transit through a Greek port – including ports of call as well as the port of disembarkation. Guests who remain on board will not be subject to the fee. To streamline the process, MSC Cruises will collect the fee on behalf of the Greek authorities, and it will be automatically added to guest’s final on-board account. If guests choose to stay on board and do not go ashore, the expense will be automatically removed from your account within 24 hours.

  • Please note that this fee is mandated by the Greek Government and applies to all cruise lines operating in Greece. MSC Cruises has no influence over the implementation or amount of these charges.
