MSC CRUISES REVISES WINTER 2026/2027 PROGRAMME WITH MSC WORLD EUROPA’S DEPLOYMENT TO THE FRENCH ANTILLES

Geneva, Switzerland – 30 March 2026 – MSC Cruises today announced a revised deployment for the upcoming Winter 2026/2027 season, strengthening its long-standing presence in the Caribbean with the introduction of MSC World Europa to the French Antilles.

Originally scheduled to sail in the Middle East from November 2026 to April 2027, MSC World Europa will now operate 7- and 14- night itineraries with embarkation in Fort-de-France (Martinique), Pointe-à-Pitre (Guadeloupe) and Bridgetown (Barbados) as well as calls to Castries (Saint Lucia) and Saint George (Grenada), Philipsburg (St. Maarten/ Netherlands Antilles), St. John (Antigua and Barbuda), Basseterre (Saint Kitts and Nevis) and Roseau (Dominica), Kingstown (Saint Vincent and the Grenadines).

This adjustment offers guests a perfect winter-sun experience in one of the world’s most desirable warm-weather destinations, while offering all the innovative features and next-generation guest experiences for which MSC World Europa is known.

The deployment change sees MSC World Europa replacing MSC Seaview, which will be redeployed to Brazil and Argentina for the Winter 2026/2027 season, further reinforcing MSC Cruises’ commitment to offering diverse choices across its global portfolio. MSC Seaview’s itinerary for South America will be available soon.

Guests booked on MSC World Europa for Winter 2026-2027 and their travel partners are being contacted directly and provided with clear, comprehensive information regarding their options, including the possibility to move their booking to another sailing or request a full refund.

Guests booked on MSC Seaview sailings from the French Antilles this coming winter will see no change to their itinerary, dates and overall cruise experience, with no action required from guests. This will mark MSC World Europa’s first season in the region - one of MSC Cruises’ most innovative ships, offering the latest onboard design and features.
