MSC Cruises has updated its Winter 2027-28 deployment, moving MSC World Asia to the South Caribbean and MSC World Europa from the Middle East to the Western Mediterranean.
New Itineraries for Ships
MSC World Europa will continue sailing 7-night itineraries in the Western Mediterranean, rather than operating its previously planned Middle East deployment. Embarkation will be available from ports throughout the region, with itineraries calling at Barcelona, Marseille, Genoa, Civitavecchia, Messina and Valletta.
The ship features multiple dining and entertainment options, along with outdoor spaces including the World Promenade and World Galleria.
MSC World Asia will offer 7- and 14-night South Caribbean cruises, with departures from Fort-de-France, Martinique; Pointe-a-Pitre, Guadeloupe; and Bridgetown, Barbados.
Itineraries will include ports such as Castries, Saint Lucia; St. George’s, Grenada; Philipsburg, St. Maarten; St. John’s, Antigua and Barbuda; Basseterre, Saint Kitts and Nevis; Roseau, Dominica; and Kingstown, Saint Vincent and the Grenadines.
MSC World Asia will bring its onboard lineup to the Caribbean, including the Cliffhanger over-water swing ride, a Venchi chocolate experience, family attractions, entertainment venues and open-air spaces.
Changes to Existing Bookings
The deployment changes also affect existing bookings. Guests booked on MSC World Asia‘s Mediterranean sailings or MSC Meraviglia‘s South Caribbean sailings for Winter 2027-28 will have their bookings updated and will be contacted directly about any changes.
Guests booked on MSC World Europa‘s Winter 2027-28 Middle East sailings are being contacted with options that include transferring to another sailing or requesting a full refund.
