A Dash of Renaissance for MSC Cruises


MSC Cruises’ ambitious Renaissance Programme to renew and enlarge four ships of its 12-strong fleet has reached a new level after MSC Armonia arrived in Sicily, MSC said. On Sunday 31 August MSC Armonia
entered in Palermo, Italy, where she will remain for 11 weeks, until resuming service on 17 November with a one-off inaugural Mediterranean cruise from Genoa to the Canary Islands. Over the next two and a half months, Fincantieri’s team will lengthen the ship by inserting a prebuilt 24-metre section containing 194 extra cabins. In addition, they will refit and renew many other parts of the ship, upgrading the level of comfort, entertainments and services available on board.

On 28 August, the new midship section was floated into the shipyard, and towed into the drydock area, where MSC Armonia will undergo her Renaissance. Finally, on Sunday morning, MSC Armonia stopped inside the drydock, where the midship section was waiting. Work immediately started on her hull, as the cutting line was marked.

The midsection will be inserted mid-September and the maiden journey out of the shipyard will be on 17 November. In addition to new cabins, the ship will boast new areas for the Baby Club built in partnership with Chicco; also a new Mini Club and Young Club for kids to play, as well as a Teens Club.

Food lovers were not forgotten as the buffet will be open 20 hours per day and exciting features will be available for an even better food experience. She will also feature a new lounge area as well as an extended restaurant. MSC Armonia will in addition be fitted with a library for MSC travellers to enjoy their time on board even more. MSC Aurea Spa will also benefit from enrichments to please guests. A completely new spray park will also be added, with an exhilarating pathway of water features and water cannons.
