MSC Euribia to sail Canary Islands and Madeira for winter 2027-28
MSC Cruises today announced that MSC Euribia will offer seven-night Canary Islands and Madeira cruises during the winter 2027-28 season, giving guests the opportunity to enjoy winter sunshine, explore six distinctive island destinations and experience one of the newest ships in the Company’s fleet.
The ship’s deployment marks the fourth season of the popular programme and reinforces MSC Cruises’ long-term commitment to the region.
The deployment reflects the continued popularity of winter cruises in the Canary Islands, where a warm climate, varied destinations and convenient embarkation option make the programme attractive to guests from across Europe and other parts of the world. As one of the newest ships in the MSC Cruises fleet, MSC Euribia will bring an even broader choice of dining, entertainment and onboard experiences to the region, complementing the well-established itinerary that has made the programme a success.
Gianni Onorato, CEO of MSC Cruises, said: “The Canary Islands are an important part of our winter offering and a programme that our guests continue to value highly. Deploying MSC Euribia for winter 2027-28 is a clear demonstration of our commitment to the region and to the continued development of this popular programme. One of the newest ships in our fleet will increase the capacity for this season and bring an outstanding range of experiences to guests while allowing them to discover the distinctive character of the Canary Islands and Madeira.”
The programme provides sustained economic benefits during the winter season, bringing guests to multiple islands and supporting local ports, tourism businesses, tour operators, transport providers and other suppliers.
A POPULAR SEVEN-NIGHT WINTER PROGRAMME
MSC Euribia will offer 7-night cruises in the Canary Islands and Madeira, with four embarkation ports for guests to choose from. Guests will discover the historic streets and lively waterfront of Santa Cruz de Tenerife, the golden beaches and turquoise water of Fuerteventura, the vibrant port of Funchal in Madeira, the distinctive landscapes of Lanzarote and the lively island capital of Las Palmas de Gran Canaria, with a day at sea to enjoy the ship’s extensive facilities. Guests can choose to embark from Santa Cruz de Tenerife, Funchal, Arrecife or Santa Cruz de La Palma.
The programme combines striking volcanic landscapes, historic towns, local cuisine and diverse cultural attractions, offering guests an appealing way to explore the Atlantic islands during the European winter.
MSC EURIBIA BRINGS AN ENHANCED ONBOARD EXPERIENCE TO THE REGION
MSC Euribia combines striking design with an extensive choice of dining, entertainment and leisure experiences for guests of all ages. At the heart of the ship is the Galleria Euribia, an indoor promenade beneath a spectacular LED dome, surrounded by international and speciality restaurants, shops and entertainment venues. Families can enjoy dedicated facilities for children and teenagers, pools and one of the largest waterparks in the MSC Cruises fleet, while guests seeking greater privacy and personalised service can choose the MSC Yacht Club, MSC Cruises’ luxury ship-within-a-ship concept.

The ship features a range of technologies designed to support lower-emission operations, including shore power connectivity, advanced wastewater treatment systems, comprehensive waste management capabilities and energy-efficiency technologies that help optimise fuel consumption and reduce emissions.
MSC FANTASIA TO OPERATE WINTER MEDITERRANEAN PROGRAMME
