MSC World Europa the star of new TV show
MSC World Europa is front and centre of a new Channel 4 documentary.
It has the starring role in the 60-minute documentary, Building the Billion Pound Cruise Ship, which airs on 16 December.
The show follows the 22-deck LNG-powered cruise ship from the first steel cutting in 2019 to welcoming the first guests in late 2022.
It follows the designers, project managers and shipbuilders as work to deliver a brand new ship prototype under a tight deadline.
The programme shows the construction techniques used to build MSC World Europa from over 42,000 tonnes of steel.
It goes behind the scenes to see what it takes to operate a ship with almost 7,000 guests.
MSC World Europa was constructed by Chantiers de L’Atlantique.
It is MSC’s first World Class category ship with 33 restaurants, bars and lounges, six swimming pools, and much more.
MSC World Europa is sailing the Mediterranean for winter 2023/2024 and summer 2024.
