Launched in 2009, MSC Magnifica at 89,600 GT carries 2,550 passengers. She is one of MSC Cruise Line's "Musica" family of ships. The interior décor of wood and marble, soft furnishings and colour reflects high Italian quality. MSC Magnifica will be upgraded in early 2021, adding two new restaurants, a new water park and kids’ area, and a 23m extension that will add another 215 new cabins.Masterfully combining the relaxed refinement of the Musica Class with the variety and opulence of their Fantasia Class flagships, MSC Magnifica brings cruise travelers the best of both worlds. With her variety, you can be sure to live every moment to the full. In every way, MSC Magnifica lives up to her name – she offers a cruise that’s memorably magnificent. The vessel is roomy, with plenty of lounges and bars, and has excellent alternative restaurants offering Italian and Japanese fare. Hear music day and night. Your fellow guests will be an eclectic mix from Europe and North America. MSC Cruises are family orientated, and children are very much catered for, filling the ship in school holidays.
