Joining sisters MSC Fantasia, MSC Splendida, MSC Magnifica, MSC Orchestra, MSC Poesia and MSC Musica, MSC Divina is now a partner in the AIC’s ‘eating-out network’ which the company has collaborated with since 2008.

MSC Cruises has adhered to the rules and directives of the special ‘cruises project’ run by the AIC since 2010 and follows strict regulations for preparing it’s vast gluten-free menus on board.

Seventeen specialty menus are on offer including a gluten-free lunch box for celiacs embarking on shore excursions, with Divina Bar on deck five serving a special ‘gluten-free’ list of beverages including cocktails and a special beer and bitter.
