About the ship
MSC World Europa was the first World Class ship of MSC Cruises. Delivered in November 2022 and powered by liquefied natural gas (LNG), it is instantly recognisable by its straight bow, futuristic silhouette and Y-shaped stern.
With room for 6,762 guests in 2,626 cabins, it offers 13 restaurants, the largest water park in the fleet and 7 pools. Beyond the design, MSC set out to take the onboard experience a step further, from the interiors to the entertainment.
