MSC Cruises has revealed the name of its second Meraviglia-class mega cruise ship – MSC Bellissima.
Bellissima is scheduled to begin sailing in spring 2019.
The announcement came at STX France’s shipyard in Saint Nazaire as the line floated out the MSC Meraviglia which enters service next year.
"Since we opened sales last year for MSC Meraviglia’s inaugural season in the Western Mediterranean, from the very beginning demand has been extremely encouraging," said Gianni Onorato, chief executive officer of MSC Cruises.
"This make us believe that this is a generation of ships with a bright future ahead, that has already caught the attention of vacationers from all markets."
Meraviglia-class ships will each have a specially designed Carousel Lounge where Cirque du Soleil artists perform exclusive shows, a 315 feet long Mediterranean-style promenade and an enhanced MSC Yacht Club.
