    If all of the source document's MPs are suitable, you can do this via Import > Formats.

    If you need only the one page, have both docs open to Master Page View.
    Add a new (blank) MP in the destination document.

    Give it the desired name.

    Navigate to the source MP.
    Select-All, Copy, and paste into the target document.

    There are other trickier ways to import, but the above takes less time than explaining it.
