MSC Cruises Canada Enhances La Romana Fly & Cruise Program with Exclusive Bundle

MSC Opera will begin operating year-round out of La Romana in November.

MSC Cruises Canada is expanding its Fly & Cruise program with a new, exclusive bundle designed specifically for Canadian travellers sailing from La Romana, Dominican Republic for Winter 2026-2027.

Here’s What’s New:

  • Special-rate Easy Drink Package exclusively available for pre‑booking in Canada for this itinerary, featuring house wines, draft beer, classic cocktails, spirits, sodas, and coffee.
  • Added‑value transfers between airport and ship to streamline the end‑to‑end journey.
  • Travel advisors will earn their regular commission plus an additional 10% on the flights and transfers portion.
  • Core Fly & Cruise benefits maintained, including assured arrival at port and 24/7 dedicated travel support. 
Family fun on MSC Cruises.

MSC Cruises Canada says these enhancements further strengthen Fly & Cruise as a one‑stop‑shop solution bundling flights, cruise, drinks and transfers for maximum convenience, flexibility, and peace of mind.

La Romana’s year‑round deployment has advantages for Canadians seeking warm‑weather escapes, with direct and one‑stop flight options from major gateways offering easy access to the Southern Caribbean and an appealing alternative to traditional winter routes.

Flights are available from major Canadian cities — including Toronto, Montréal, Vancouver, Calgary, Edmonton, Ottawa, Québec City, Winnipeg, St. John’s — into Punta Cana with Air Transat and Air Canada. 

Beginning in November, MSC Opera will operate weekly year-round 7‑night sailings, with the option to extend to a 14‑night back‑to‑back “butterfly” cruise, visiting ports such as Catalina Island, Fort‑de‑France, Virgin Gorda, and St. John’s.
