MSC Cruises has opened sales for the bulk of its Winter 2024/25 season sailings in North America, the Caribbean, the Mediterranean, Northern Europe and the Red Sea, while its South America, Southern Africa and Far East programs will be available to book in the near future.

The Cruise Division of MSC Group next week will operate the industry’s first net zero greenhouse gas emissions voyage when its latest MSC Cruises flagship, the LNG-powered MSC Euribia, leaves her shipyard in Saint-Nazaire, France on the way to her naming ceremony in Copenhagen, Denmark.

MSC Cruises’ MSC Euribia has successfully completed her deep-water intensive systems tests during a four-day trial in the Atlantic Ocean. MSC Cruises’ latest flagship will next receive her finishing touches at the Chantiers de l’Atlantique shipyard in Saint Nazaire, France before being officially delivered to MSC Cruises on 31 May.

MSC Cruises has unveiled details of the new food & beverage offering that will be available aboard MSC Euribia when the ship launches in June 2023. From steakhouses to sushi, cocktails to coffee, there is a restaurant or bar fit for any time of the day and every typology of guest.

The naming of MSC Cruises’ first World-Class ship in Qatar last weekend and the delivery three days later of its fourth Seaside-Class ship in Italy is a clear sign that the family-owned cruise company means business in the contemporary and premium cruise sectors.

MSC Cruises has opened sales for MSC Euribia – the line’s most environmentally advanced ship in its fleet and its second LNG-powered ship.

The first steel for MSC Cruises’ 22nd vessel and second to be fuelled by liquified natural gas (LNG) was cut on Monday [28 June 2021] at the Chantiers de l’Atlantique shipyard in Saint Nazaire, France.
