Introduction to MSC World America

It’s arguably the most-anticipated new cruise ship in the Caribbean this year: MSC World America, the vessel MSC hopes will be a game-changer for its push into the region.

Delivery and Debut

MSC has officially taken delivery of the ship, which will be heading to PortMiami and MSC’s new cruise terminal with an April 9 debut. The new terminal is the largest cruise terminal on the planet, MSC says.

Itineraries and Destinations

Its official first season kicks off on April 12, sailing a series of seven-night Eastern Caribbean and seven-night Western Caribbean itineraries.

The Eastern Caribbean jaunts stop in ports like Puerto Plata, San Juan and the company’s Ocean Cay private destination in The Bahamas; on the western side, that includes visits to Costa Maya and the island of Cozumel in Mexico, Ocean Cay and the increasingly popular island of Roatan of the Caribbean coast of Honduras.

Onboard Amenities

The 6,762-passenger-capacity ship has 19 dining concepts, 18 bars and MSC’s new “Harbour” concept, which has amenities like a water park and a playground, among others.

It also includes something we’re particularly excited about: the first-ever Eataly at Sea.

So what about prices?

You can find sailings for as low as $673 per person on MSC World America right now. If you want a package that includes drinks and wi-fi, the rate goes up to about $1,065 per person.

Conclusion

With its impressive amenities, exciting itineraries, and competitive pricing, MSC World America is set to make a splash in the Caribbean cruise scene. Whether you’re a seasoned cruiser or just looking for a new adventure, this ship is definitely worth considering.
