MSC have announced that for the whole season in 2018, the MSC Magnifica will be based in Southampton but with a very special twist !

Not only will she be completing a season of Southampton sailings from April, but she will also be offering exclusive British touches on board such as : British comedians, tea and coffee making facilities in your cabin, British craft beers, and traditional Sunday roasts.

MSC Magnifica will sail from Southampton between April and November 2018, operating five different itineraries. She will  be offering a mix of Mediterranean and Northern Europe itineraries, including a 14-day sailing calling at Le Havre, La Coruna, Leixoes, Lisbon, Malaga, Amsterdam, and Hamburg. A Norway cruise will visit Stavanger, Bergen, Olden and Alesund, and a round-Britain cruise will include calls to Newcastle, South Edinburgh, and Invergordon.

The 2500 passenger ship is also even more accessible as many itineraries can be paired with port parking, regional flights or coach transfers. The 22 sailing dates will be All Inclusive on drinks and Free Wi-Fi on-board!

Antonio Paradiso, MD of MSC Cruises for the UK & Ireland said “We have carefully considered all the feedback from the UK market and have created a cruise package to suit the needs of British guests. In addition I have personally handpicked the itineraries based on my conversations with agents and hope that the bespoke itineraries, coupled with the fabulous all-inclusive beverage and Wi-Fi offer will create the perfect holiday experience for the British market.”

Although, MSC already offer several sailings from Southampton, MSC Magnifica will be the first MSC ship to operate a full season of cruises from Southampton since MSC Splendida in 2015.
