| MSC Preziosa milestone

THIS month MSC Cruises marked a milestone
in the construction of its newest vessel, MSC
Preziosa, with a traditional coin laying
ceremony at the STX shipyard in Saint-Nazaire.
MSC took over the 140,000 tonne ship earlier
in the year after the termination of the
agreement with her original owner, renaming
the ship Preziosa and announcing that she will
become the fourth ship in the company’s
Fantasia class ships.
