MSC Cruises will deploy its fourth World Class ship to Port Canaveral for the Winter 2027-28 season, offering year-round seven-night Caribbean cruises, alongside MSC World America.
The MSC Grandiosa will begin year-round Caribbean cruises from Port Canaveral in Winter 2026-27, following its inaugural season in Winter 2025-26, while MSC Seashore continues three- and four-night Bahamas itineraries.
Lynn Torrent, MSC Cruises USA’s executive vice president, said the port’s convenience and growing guest demand spurred the deployment of more modern and innovative ships to the Caribbean market, which has 42pc of the world market, hosts almost half of the global passenger capacity and is the third most popular destination for Irish cruisers.
Port Canaveral CEO Capt. John Murray said the addition of exceptional ships will enhance Central Florida’s cruise options and reinforce the port’s reputation for a world-class guest experience.
