Featuring departures out of Toronto with Alitalia (March to October 2013), Sunquest and MSC Cruises are continuing their partnership “to bring even more choice and value for the 2013 Med cruising season.”The MSC Splendida, MSC Fantasia, MSC Lirica and the MSC Divina are the four ships that Sunquest guests can choose from this coming season.
