Cabins for the inaugural summer 2017 cruises of MSC Meraviglia are now on sale.
Initially the 315m-long ship will be open exclusively to MSC Club members, with the ship going on general sale on July 5.
Gianni Onorato, chief executive officer of MSC Cruises, said: "MSC Meraviglia is a true maritime marvel and will be one of the greenest and safest ships in the industry, as well as one of the most technologically advanced."
MSC Cruises claims MSC Meraviglia will be the biggest and most innovative cruise ship ever built by a global European-based cruise line.
Due to be delivered in May 2017, the ship will spend its first summer sailing the western Mediterranean and will be the first to have three homeports: Genoa, Marseille and Barcelona.
By using NFC wristbands, cruise cards or their smartphone, guests will be able to make payments, book spa treatments and speciality restaurants, access their cabin and safe, and even geo-locate their children.
