| STX France Delivers MSC Magnifica (photos) |
 |
| Thursday, 25 February 2010 |
|
MSC Magnifica is 294 metres long, 32 metres wide and 60 metres tall, and differs from her three predecessors due to its covered pool, enlarged cafeteria area and many decorative and technological innovations. It is a truly unique ship.
MSC Magnifica left the Loire estuary in the early afternoon with 600 passengers on board for a pre-inaugural cruise to Southampton. She will arrive back in Saint-Nazaire on 1 March, returning the city to its rightful place as a cruising start and end point, a pleasure which it has not enjoyed for several decades. MSC Magnifica will then set off for Hamburg with 2,500 German passengers on board, where she will be christened in front of its godmother, screen legend Sophia Loren, on Saturday 6 March 2010. |
