UNCASVILLE, CT (August 29, 2018) – MSC Cruises, the world’s largest privately-owned cruise line and market leader in Europe and South America, has partnered with Mohegan Sun, one of the world’s largest casino and resort destinations, to extend benefits of MSC Voyager’s Club — the cruise line’s loyalty program — to Mohegan Sun Momentum members.
Beginning September 1st, Mohegan Sun Momentum members from the Connecticut-based entertainment, gaming, dining and shopping destination will be matched, based on their current membership level, to a corresponding MSC Voyager’s Club status to receive perks such as cruise discounts, priority embarkation and disembarkation, spa experiences, on board amenities and more.
“MSC Cruises continuously strives for excellence in everything we do, partnering with best-in-class brands both on our ships and shore side,” said Neil Gumbs, Manager, Casino VIP Services & Business Development of MSC Cruises USA. “A partnership with Mohegan Sun was a natural fit, considering our robust casino program, and we are eager to bring our distinct, internationally-inspired experience and MSC Voyager’s Club benefits to members of such a recognized entertainment brand.”
MSC Cruises’ robust casino program offers guests the opportunity to win big at sea with more than 1,300 different kinds of slot machines and a variety of table games fleet-wide. Guests on-board can also earn rewards while they play towards experiences like specialty dining, spa treatments, future cruise discounts and more.
Revolutionary and stunning, the first of MSC Cruises' Seaside Class was introduced in 2017 with the arrival of the 160,000-ton, 5,179-guest MSC Seaside. Aptly named, she was designed to enhance the cruise experience by providing a sense of closeness to the sea and is the largest in the fleet with the most outdoor space per passenger than any.
Mohegan Sun Momentum members will receive the corresponding MSC Voyager’s Club status based on their current Mohegan card levels, including:
Once Momentum Members have joined MSC Cruises’ Voyager’s Club, they are also invited to register for MSC’s Status Match program, in which travelers who have a rewards card from another travel land or sea program automatically acquire similar or higher status with MSC Cruises.
“With its fleet of ultra-modern and beautifully designed ships sailing to more than 150 destinations around the world, MSC Cruises is an ideal partner for Mohegan Sun, providing our members new and exciting opportunities to explore the world,” said Ray Pineault, President & General Manager of Mohegan Sun.
