The world’s only Eataly at Sea is coming to MSC Cruises’ newest flagship—MSC World America. Set to enter service in April 2025, MSC World America will feature exclusive Eataly dishes only available on board. The world-renowned brand will debut alongside the ship’s other new eatery, Paxos Greek Restaurant, and on-the-go food options.
“As an international cruise line with a strong European heritage,” said Bernhard Stacher, VP of Global Hotel Operations, MSC Cruises, in a press release statement, “we are committed to taking our guests on a gastronomic journey of discovery with the onboard dining experience as we believe that the best memories are made when sharing good food together. MSC World America stays true to this philosophy, which is why we have partnered with Eataly, an emblem of ‘Made in Italy’ and Italian culinary artistry. We share a passion for high-quality, authentic food made with fresh ingredients and together we are creating a unique experience that can only be enjoyed on board MSC World America.”
In all, MSC World America will offer 19 dining venues, including four elegant main restaurants, two relaxed buffets, two exclusive venues for guests in the MSC Yacht Club, and unique experiences including:
