MSC has revealed new details about MSC World Asia, expected to make its debut in the Mediterranean from December 11, 2026.

Among the highlights is the World Promenade, an open-air space with dining, lounging and entertainment options.

Other highlights include:

  • More than 20 different accommodation types including luxury suites and balcony cabins with ocean or promenade views.
  • Cliffhanger, an overwater swing ride 50m above the ocean.
  • More than 40 bars, lounges and restaurants including six speciality restaurant concepts.
  • The Harbour, a new outdoor park in the Family Aventura District.
  • Seven pools, including one with a retractable roof and 13 whirlpool baths.
