The MSC Preziosa recently kicked off a new year-round deployment in Northern Europe for MSC Cruises.
The 2013-built ship arrived in Germany in early May after completing a repositioning cruise from South America.
Sailing from its homeport in Hamburg, the vessel is now scheduled to offer a series of seven- to 14-night cruises to a range of destinations in the region.
The ship's summer itineraries are highlighted by visits to destinations in the Baltic, the British Isles, Iceland, Scandinavia and the North Sea.
In late June, the MSC Preziosa is also set to offer a special 14-night voyage to Svalbard and the North Cape.
In addition to a visit to Longyearbyen in Spitsbergen, the 3,500-passenger vessel will also call on other Norwegian ports including Honningsvåg, Tromsø, Molde, Olden and Stavanger.
In late October, the ship kicks off its winter season in the region, which will include seven-night cruises to Western Europe and the North Sea.
Sailing to Germany, the Netherlands, the United Kingdom, France and Belgium, the itineraries will be offered through April.
With multiple embarkation ports, the cruises sail to Hamburg, Rotterdam, Southampton, Le Havre and Zeebrugge.
According to MSC Cruises' published deployment, the MSC Preziosa will continue to sail exclusively in Northern Europe through at least April 2028.
Before embarking on its trans-Atlantic crossing to Hamburg this April, the ship spent the 2025-26 winter sailing in South America.
As part of a five-ship season in the region, the vessel offered a series of three- to eight-night itineraries to Brazil, Argentina and Uruguay.
The cruises departed from Santos and Buenos Aires, in addition to Balneário Camboriú, a new embarkation port for MSC Cruises in Brazil.
Built at the Chantiers de l'Atlantique shipyard in France, the MSC Preziosa entered service in 2013 as the final ship in MSC's Fantasia class.
