MSC and Fincantieri, the Italian shipbuilding company, have signed the final contracts for the construction of four luxury cruise ships scheduled for delivery between 2023 and 2026.

This announcement follows the initial signing of a memorandum of agreement between the two parties in October 2018.

The first of the four ships will be delivered by spring 2023. The remaining three will come into service, one per year, over the following three years through to 2026.

Each ship will weigh approximately 64 000 tons and feature 481 guest suites
