The passengers on the MSC Magnifica actually wanted to start their Christmas voyage over the weekend.

This was canceled without further ado.

What about the following trips?

The MSC Magnifica * should set sail from Hamburg on Sunday.

But the passengers on the Christmas voyage were not even allowed on board.

The crew is said to have already informed the guests of the canceled trip at Hamburg Central Station.

What sounds shocking and incredibly disappointing at first, but has a very plausible reason.

MSC Magnifica: Christmas travel drama in Hamburg

As reported by the

Ships and Cruises

portal

, MSC Cruises has asked the crew to intercept the guests at the train station.

After all, the Passiere came from all over Germany to start the Christmas journey to the metropolises of Europe.

However, one of these countries has now been declared a

virus variant

area: Great Britain.

Since

Southampton is used as an embarkation and disembarkation port

, this was the decisive reason to cancel the trip at short notice.

As it turned out during the day, it should not just be this cancellation.

Great Britain has a firm grip on the Omikron variant, so those responsible at MSC Cruises have made another difficult decision.

MSC Magnifica: cruises canceled until mid-January

The future is of course difficult to plan during a pandemic.

For the time being, the crew of MSC Magnifica prefer to play it safe, which is why

all trips until January 15, 2022 have been canceled

.

This foresight at least saves passengers having to travel there should Great Britain continue to belong to the virus variant area.

In addition, the guests are protected from an obligation to quarantine - because even those who are fully vaccinated have to be quarantined for 14 days after the trip.

Even if it is disappointing at first, it was acted in the interests of the guests.
