In December 2008, the new generation liner of the MSC Cruises passenger fleet, MSC Fantasia, was launched. At that time, it was the largest ship ever built for European cruise lines.
The liner is equipped with unique innovative technological systems that save energy and protect the environment, and has rightfully earned the title of ECO liner. The most advanced technologies, sophistication and elegance of interiors, exceptional service form an indivisible whole called MSC Fantasia.
For the first time, MSC Cruises on the ship MSC Fantasia embodied the idea of a separate VIP zone: the MSC YACHT CLUB was located on several decks with 71 spacious suites, a bar, a solarium, a jacuzzi, a swimming pool, a relaxation area with large panoramic windows at the bow of the ship, and its own concierge service. The VIP area of MSC Fantasia replicates the details of the finest yachts with a refined and elegant design.
