MSC Cruises is orders two more World Class ships

MSC Cruises is ordering two more World Class ships to complement the four already delivered or under construction.

The cruise line signed an order with ship builder Chantiers de l’Atlantique that will result in an eventual fleet of six World Class ships. The two new orders – currently referred to as World Class 5 and 6 – will be delivered in 2029 and 2030 respectively.

The ships will build further on the legacy of excellence and innovation established by the World Class, which combines the very best in environmental technology with the latest advancements in guest experiences. World Class 5 and 6 will join MSC World Europa and MSC World America, along with MSC World Asia and MSC World Atlantic, which are currently under construction and will enter service in 2026 and 2027 respectively.

MSC World America entered service in Miami last month, ushering in a new world of cruising with its seamless blend of European style and American comfort. The ship’s new districts—like Family Aventura with the all-new Cliffhanger thrill ride—are getting rave reviews from travelers.

Guests are also loving new bar and restaurant concepts ranging from the All-Stars Sports Bar to the only Eataly Restaurant at sea. MSC World Atlantic will arrive with some surprises of its own, offering cruises from Port Canaveral upon joining the fleet in 2027.
