While they’ve yet to be named, MSC Cruises is referring to each of these new ships as World Class 5 and 6. The ships are expected to be delivered in 2029 and 2030, respectively. The World Class 5 and 6 will join MSC World Europa and MSC World America, which are already carrying MSC Cruises voyages, along with the upcoming MSC World Asia, which is expected to join the fleet sailing in Europe late 2026. MSC World Atlantic will offer cruises from Port Canaveral when it joins MSC Cruises’ fleet in 2027.
