Browse our Sustainability reports to understand more about what we do.

OUR SUSTAINABILITY PROGRAMME

Our commitment to the future is outlined in our easy-to-understand Sustainability Action Plan. We're working on several fronts: reducing our greenhouse-gas emissions from our marine operations to zero, using resources wisely, supporting the places we visit, taking care of our team and guests, and choosing our suppliers carefully. These efforts organised into our main areas of action - Planet, People, Fuel and Technology, Supply Chain and Responsible Tourism to show our dedication to protecting the environment, supporting our communities, and ensuring a sustainable future for cruising

PLANET

We are fully committed to playing our part in addressing climate change and promoting ocean biodiversity. We are determined to accelerate our transition toward net zero green house gas emissions for our fleet by 2050. We work closely with leading technology companies, shipyards, and fuel providers to push the boundaries of what is possible.

PEOPLE

MSC Cruises is a people-focused company, employing tens of thousands of people of multiple nationalities worldwide. Our number one priority is keeping our passengers and crew safe and well. Our crew play a very important role in making our guest experience a success, and we know how important it is to support their well-being.

PLACE

Our cruises allow people to visit some of the most beautiful and exciting destinations that the world has to offer – and we want to help to keep them that way.

We promote more responsible travel and deliver greater social and economic outcomes for communities.

PROCUREMENT

Our cruise sustainability actions also apply to our procurement policy. Every year, we procure thousands of different items to run our operations, from engine parts to hand soap, crew uniforms to food and drink and we need to do this thoughtfully and responsibly.

From ships to straws we think carefully about every purchase we make. We also care about how we dispose of used items. We think carefully about every purchase we make and how we dispose of used items. Managing environmental, social and ethical issues such as reducing environmental impact and eliminating single-used plastics in our supply chain is critical.
