The ship
About MSC Virtuosa
MSC Virtuosa is the second Meraviglia-Plus class cruise ship from MSC Cruises, launched in April 2021 from Chantiers de l'Atlantique in Saint-Nazaire, France. Measuring 181,541 gross tons with a length of 1,086 feet, she accommodates up to 6,334 passengers across 19 decks. MSC Virtuosa made headlines as the first cruise ship to feature a humanoid robotic bartender named Rob, who serves cocktails at the futuristic MSC Starship Club lounge. The ship features the spectacular Galleria Virtuosa, a 341-foot-long promenade covered by an immersive LED sky screen that transforms throughout the day. Like her sister Grandiosa, Virtuosa offers two exclusive Cirque du Soleil at Sea shows in the dedicated Carousel Lounge. The MSC Yacht Club provides a premium ship-within-a-ship experience with private facilities, butler service, and priority embarkation. Guests enjoy five swimming pools, a Himalayan salt crystal room in the Aurea Spa, a full-size bowling alley, an F1 racing simulator, and an expansive kids' area. With 12 dining venues and 21 bars, the culinary program ranges from fine dining at L'Atelier Bistrot to casual poolside fare. MSC Virtuosa sails Northern European, Mediterranean, and Arabian Gulf itineraries seasonally from Southampton, Genoa, and Dubai.
