MSC Cruises has revealed brand-new itineraries for Summer 2021 sailing from Southampton.


The newly refurbished MSC Magnifica will undergo a transformation adding 23 meters to the ship. This will result in 215 extra cabins, a new water park, a redesigned kids area, plus additional features such as two new restaurants and a new shopping area.

Beginning in May and ending in October, the 24 sailings from Southampton range from 2 to 14 nights encompassing Canary Islands & Madeira, the Mediterranean, Northern Europe and the Baltic Capitals. Most of the 24 sailings will begin on a Saturday ensuring guests can make the most of their holiday experience.

Antonio Paradiso MD MSC Cruises UK & Ireland commented:

We are delighted to be further enhancing our guest experience and offering brand new itineraries sailing from the UK. We are committed to providing UK guests with the holidays they want, and travel agents with cruises they want to sell. This announcement is the result of the on-going feedback we have received from agents and guests who want to sail with MSC Cruises from Southampton to new destinations. Our goal is always to provide more opportunities for the trade and more choice for the guest.

Highlights include:

  • A 12-night cruise that calls at three of the Canary Islands – Gran Canaria, Tenerife and Lanzarote
  • A 14-night Western Mediterranean cruise in August – perfect choice for the family summer holiday
  • MSC Magnifica will offer four different stunning Norwegian Fjord itineraries and will call at two brand new destinations; Skagen in Denmark and Rosendal, Norway

In addition to new itineraries MSC Magnifica will be back with all the ‘Best of British’ enhancements that were initially showcased on MSC Magnifica in 2018, including favourite’s such as pie & mash, back bacon and sausages available in the buffet and Kettles in cabins with of course Yorkshire Tea, which is back by popular demand.
