MSC VIRTUOSA LEAVING SOUTHAMPTON! Is MSC's 2027 Move a Downgrade? MSC Cruises has officially announced its Summer 2027 deployment plans, and it's sparking plenty of debate among UK cruisers! The beloved MSC Virtuosa is leaving her Southampton homeport and heading to Barcelona for Western Mediterranean sailings. Taking her place in the UK is MSC Meraviglia - a 10 year old ship! Is swapping a 2021 "Meraviglia Plus" class vessel for an older ship a massive downgrade for British families, or do the brand new 14 night itineraries and extra destinations make up for it? Let's talk about what this big shakeup means for your future no-fly cruise holidays. What do you think of MSC's decision? Will you follow Virtuosa to the Mediterranean, or will you book Meraviglia out of Southampton? Let me know in the comments below.
