With the addition of the two ships, after the necessary upgrades are completed, the MSC Yacht Club complex will be available on 19 ships in the company's fleet.
MSC Musica will undergo an upgrade towards the end of 2026, before the start of the South American sailing season. Next up, MSC Orchestra will be upgraded in the first quarter of 2027, in preparation for Mediterranean sailings from the port of Bari in Italy.
"The company further strengthens its commitment to offering its guests upgraded and personalized cruise experiences. We will continue to expand the luxury offering for guests looking for a premium, relaxed and especially luxurious way to travel the world," a company representative said.
The MSC Yacht Club is designed as a “ship within a ship” concept, providing guests with privacy, comfort and personal service. The complex includes spacious suites, 24-hour personal butler service and a dedicated concierge service, alongside private and exclusive areas such as a luxury restaurant, lounge and dedicated sun deck. In addition, guests of the complex enjoy priority boarding and a variety of additional benefits, including daily in-suite treats such as fresh fruit, chocolates and a complimentary bottle of premium alcohol of the guest’s choice.
Guests can also enjoy luggage unpacking and packing services, private shopping sessions in the onboard boutiques outside of regular operating hours, and a variety of other benefits. In addition, guests will enjoy MED by MSC toiletries, a collection of organic care products, developed especially for MSC Yacht Club guests. Alongside the separate complex, guests enjoy a variety of culinary, entertainment and leisure options offered throughout the ship, so that each guest can enjoy an experience tailored exactly to their preferences. For those seeking personalized experiences off the ship as well, the concierge is at guests' disposal to organize dedicated shore excursions and private transportation, according to each guest's personal preferences.
MSC Musica will operate in South America from November 2026 to April 2027, offering a variety of sailings to various destinations in Brazil, along with 8-9-night holiday cruises to Buenos Aires and Montevideo and Punta del Este in Uruguay over the Christmas and New Year period. The season will conclude with a 16-night transatlantic sailing, departing from Santos in April 2027, en route to Genoa.
The MSC Orchestra will begin sailing with the new MSC Yacht Club complex from the port of Bari, Italy, between March 13 and April 24, 2027. During this period, it will visit major destinations such as Piraeus and Corfu, Greece.
Sales of MSC Yacht Club suites on both ships will open soon.
