MSC Cruises will base its new ship MSC Euribia out of Southampton from next October for winter 2023/24.

Launching in 2023, MSC Euribia will offer five- and seven-night cruises to Europe from £359 and a 21-night winter sun itinerary including calls at Casablanca, the Canary Islands and Lisbon, on 5 January, with prices starting at £2,399.

UK and Ireland Managing Director Antonio Paradiso said:“We are committed to offering the best possible experience for our guests from the UK and Ireland and that is why our newest ship, MSC Euribia, will be in the UK during 2023 and 2024.

“Since our first full ex-UK season back in 2018, we’ve seen a huge demand for stress-free, no-fly cruises from Southampton on board MSC Virtuosa.

“Basing MSC Euribia in the UK will help us to build on this success by offering our UK customers the chance to experience one of the most impressive cruise experiences offering leading sustainability technology and cutting-edge design features.”

Cruises on board MSC Euribia will be available to book from next Monday, 24 October.
