The MSC Seaside index is the average of each upcoming sailing's latest fare per night, per person, in each cabin type, across every future MSC Seaside sailing with a live published fare. Fares include taxes and fees and are divided by the number of nights. Every sailing counts once, and fares outside $30 to $25,000 a night are left out as errors. The price history is the same calculation as of each month's end. The MSC Cruise Line and market figures use the same method across the MSC Cruise Line fleet and every major line Gangwaze tracks. Booking-window figures use sailings that have already departed. Prices are in US dollars and are not adjusted for inflation.
