It’s common cruising knowledge now that over the next decade, MSC will be taking over the seas as part of their $10 billion investment.
But, we weren’t prepared for the line to have three new ships on the go in the space of eight hours after launching a new ship the week before!
MSC Seaview was christened by Italian actress and singer, Sophia Loren in Genoa on Saturday 9th June before commencing her maiden voyage the following day.
Here are the next three MSC ship ceremonies taking place in the space of eight hours:

MSC Bellissima will offer a stunning array of features to rival her sister ship, MSC Meraviglia.
The ship will feature the line’s MSC for Me technology which provides an enhanced onboard experience such as connecting you to other guests, the crew and the ship itself.
The two-deck inside promenade will feature a spectacular 80-metre-long LED dome and is lined with places to shop, eat and drink.
There are 20 bars and 10 restaurants to choose from, including speciality restaurants.
