MSC Cruises is set to deploy its new flagship MSC Virtuosa (pictured) to the UK for this year’s newly announced northern summer season (CW 19 Mar).
The newbuild will make its debut with a range of British domestic voyages.
Virtuosa will undertake her maiden voyage on 20 May from Southampton, the first of a series of three- and four-night mini-cruises before she begins her seven-night itineraries from 12 Jun, embarking from three ports in England and Scotland.
Protected shore excursions will be available in all ports, as well as in Belfast in Northern Ireland, and the Isle of Portland along the Jurassic Coast in the UK.
All departures will be available for both non-vaccinated and vaccinated British guests.
All passengers will be tested before they embark, and non-vaccinated guests will also be required to show proof of a negative test conducted up to 72 hours prior to embarkation, among other pre-boarding and onboard COVID-safe measures.
