MSC Magnifica Set to Lead the 2027 World Cruise After Major Refurbishment

MSC Cruises has revealed that the MSC Magnifica will take over from the MSC Musica as the vessel for its 2027 World Cruise. This change follows plans for a significant refurbishment of the Magnifica set for late 2025, aimed at enhancing passenger experiences during the extensive 121-night global voyage.

Departing in early January 2027 from various European ports, including Italy, Spain, and France, the MSC Magnifica will travel to 45 destinations across 25 countries. Highlights of the journey include seven overnight stays in major cities such as Rio de Janeiro, Buenos Aires, Sydney, and Tahiti, giving passengers ample time to explore.

A key feature of the refurbishment is the introduction of the MSC Yacht Club, the first of its kind on a Musica-class ship. Set to launch in early 2026, the Yacht Club will spread over five decks and will offer 63 suites in five categories, including a luxurious Royal Suite. Guests will have access to exclusive amenities, such as a private sundeck with a pool, a dedicated lounge, and a specialized restaurant with a tailored menu.

Additionally, the upgrades will enhance wellness facilities, including a redesigned MSC Aurea Spa and a Technogym-equipped fitness center, aimed at offering a comprehensive wellness experience during the voyage.

While the MSC Magnifica is also scheduled for the 2026 World Cruise, the Yacht Club will become available in 2027, coinciding with the completion of its refurbishment.

This strategic decision highlights MSC Cruises’ dedication to upgrading its fleet and enhancing the overall experience for passengers on long journeys.
