MSC Cruises Opens Bookings for 119-Night World Cruise 2029

MSC Cruises has opened bookings for its World Cruise 2029, a 119-night voyage around the world aboard the MSC Magnifica that will call at 45 destinations in 21 countries. The itinerary includes nine overnight port calls and 15 shore excursions included in the booking fare.

One of the highlights of the voyage is a circumnavigation of Australia, with new port calls in Kangaroo Island, Broome and Darwin, as well as a new overnight stay in Fremantle/Perth. The ship then continues on to Indonesia, with extended stays in Bali, Lombok and Java, including a new call at Celukan Bawang, in northern Bali.

Among the new ports added to the itinerary are Lautoka, Fiji, and Timaru, New Zealand, while Milford Sound returns to the route. Overnight stays in Rio de Janeiro, Ushuaia, Sydney and Singapore have also been added.

Guests will be able to embark in early January 2029 from four ports: Civitavecchia (Rome) on January 4, followed by Genoa, Marseille or Barcelona. The fare includes the 15 shore excursions, the Dine & Drink beverage package, and a 30% discount on laundry services, while MSC Voyagers Club members at Classic level and above receive a 5% discount, and those who book by November 19 earn triple points as part of the sales launch offer.

The voyage will take place aboard the recently refurbished MSC Magnifica, which features the MSC Yacht Club, five gourmet restaurants, 12 bars, a Broadway-style theater, a casino, the MSC Aurea spa with Balinese treatments, and a gym with sports facilities.
