MSC CruisesMagnifica is simply
magnificent at sea

February 18, 2010 - MSC Cruises is gearing up for the arrival of its stunning new build MSC Magnifica, which successfully completed her sea trials after 72 hours on open water last week.

The 11th ship to join the most modern fleet in the world made her debut to more than 2,000 guests in Southampton for two days and nights from February 26 before cruising to Hamburg for her official naming ceremony on March 6.

Guests will participate in a specific programme of events, including an official ceremony on the 27th to mark MSC Magnifica's maiden port of call to Southampton.

Beautifully fitted in Italian style and design, Magnifica has many features both modern and traditional which cater for all, making her a perfect year-round holiday experience for all sorts of cruisers from kids to couples and from newcomers and seasoned cruise veterans.

MSC Magnifica of MSC CruisesOffering 22,000 sqm of public areas for her 3,013 guests, and weighing in at 90,000 tons, Magnifica combines the intimacy of her three Musica Class sister ships with the state-of-the-art facilities and comfort of the company's much larger flagships, Splendida and Fantasia.

The Magrodome - a retractable roof and one of the largest of its kind - covers one of the four pools and provides versatility and more choice, perfect for all year-around Mediterranean sailing. Another new addition to this class and situated on the top deck, Il Bar Del Sole boasts its own whirlpools, showers and solarium.

The ship's 17 bars and lounges, four restaurants and a large new buffet area will serve the best of Italian and international cuisine, with the à la carte restaurant L'Oasi offering fine dining in an exotic Moroccan atmosphere.

New entertainment features on board include a high-tech 4D cinema and mini-bowling alley, as well as a vintage area in the sports bar dedicated to billiards.

In keeping with an MSC Cruises tradition, the MSC Aurea SPA features two new signature massages which will be exclusive to Magnifica. Covering an area of 1,160 sqm, the luxurious MSC Aurea SPA and wellness centre provides resort-standard spa and relaxation services.

Magnifica will sail to Hamburg for her official naming ceremony, taking place on March 6. It will be a spectacular evening of entertainment and celebration both on board and ashore.
