MSC Cruises announced today that the MSC Grandiosa will be exclusively sailing in the Norwegian Fjords this summer. MSC Preziosa and MSC Poesia will offer additional seven-night options alongside MSC Grandiosa across the Norwegian Fjords region this summer.

Grandiosa will sail on 7-night itineraries from Kiel, Germany visiting Copenhagen, Denmark and then heading north to Norway. The ship will visit the village of Hellesylt and Sunnylvsfjord. Guests will then sail through Aurlandsfjord on the way to the town of Alesund and the Flam village.

MSC Cruises had previously confirmed that the Line would suspend visits to St. Petersburg, Russia. As such, MSC Grandiosa will now be fully dedicated to the Fjords region, while MSC Poesia and MSC Preziosa will visit the Baltics but the visits to St. Petersburg replaced by other destinations in the region like Stockholm, Tallin and Visby. If affected by this change, MSC Cruises will be reaching out.

Guests originally booked on one of MSC Grandiosa’s former itineraries in the Baltics and still wishing to cruise there can opt for one of the summer 2022 itineraries on MSC Poesis or MSC Preziosa instead:

• MSC Poesia – From Warnemunde, Germany, these 7 and 11-night itineraries feature calls to destinations including Riga, Helsinki, Stockholm, Tallinn, Copenhagen, Kristiansand, Oslo and others from May 14 through September 21. 
• MSC Preziosa – From Kiel, Germany, these 7 to 12-night itineraries feature calls to destinations including Tallinn, Helsinki, Stockholm, Bergen, Kristiansand, Stavanger and others from May 1 through September 21.
