MSC Virtuosa is set to become MSC Cruises’ UK flagship

The ship remains in Southampton year round for winter 2022/23 and summer 2023.

This will be the first time that the line has continuously operated one of its vessels from the UK year-round.

MSC Virtuosa launched in 2021 and became the first ship to restart UK cruises in May last year.

It returned to the UK in April this year and will now continue to operate out of Southampton through to the end of the summer 2023 season.

Antonio Paradiso, Managing Director – UK and Ireland, MSC Cruises, said, “Since MSC Virtuosa first came to the UK, the feedback from our guests has been incredible and the ship has been a huge hit.”

The increased appetite for no-fly cruises out of the UK has resulted in huge demand.” 

MSC Virtuosa will now replace MSC Preziosa’s itineraries this winter offering the newly introduced ‘Northern Pearls’ itinerary from Southampton to Hamburg; Zeebrugge; Rotterdam and Le Havre.

Itineraries will offer cruises ranging from three-night breaks to three-week voyages.

In summer 2023, MSC Virtuosa will replace MSC Grandiosa offering mini cruises, seven-night sailings as well as longer cruises.
