MSC Fly Cruises in 2027 with Flights Included

MSC Cruises fly cruises for 2027 span the Caribbean, the Western Mediterranean, the Transatlantic, South America, East Asia and more — with flights included as part of the package. Sailings run from 6 to 32 nights, with a median of 11 nights, so there is a duration to suit most holiday allowances. Prices start from £345 pp* and a good share of sailings carry a discount from the previously listed price for that cabin grade — up to 19% on one departure, with most reduced sailings sitting around 5% off.

Where Do MSC 2027 Fly Cruises Go?

The MSC Cruises 2027 fly programme reaches across several regions, and the shape of what is on sale is worth understanding before you start browsing. The Caribbean is the most prominent destination, followed closely by the Western Mediterranean, with Transatlantic crossings, South America, East Asia and Japan also well represented.

The Caribbean and Southern Caribbean

The Caribbean accounts for the largest share of MSC’s 2027 fly programme. Miami is the most common embarkation port for these sailings, with Port Canaveral, Florida also used regularly. Worth noting: Miami and Fort Lauderdale (Port Everglades) are about half an hour apart, so a Florida trip can sail from either — worth checking both for dates and prices.

The Southern Caribbean adds another layer of options for those wanting to push further south into the islands. For a narrower look at Caribbean fly sailings specifically, see our Caribbean fly cruises 2027 page, and if you want to combine a sailing with time ashore, the Barbados cruises and stay 2027 page covers that combination in detail. You can also explore standalone Barbados cruises 2027 or check the Barbados destination page for port information.

If you are flying to Florida for a Caribbean sailing, Cruise1st can book the flights, your hotel the night before, and all transfers as a single package — nothing left for you to chase separately.

The Western Mediterranean and Mediterranean

The Western Mediterranean is the second-largest group in the MSC 2027 fly programme. Barcelona and Genoa are among the embarkation ports for these sailings, with Rome (Civitavecchia) also featuring as both an embarkation and disembarkation port. Broader Mediterranean itineraries sit alongside these, giving a range of route shapes. Naples and Marseille also appear as ports of call on these routes.

If you want to explore Mediterranean options more broadly, our Mediterranean Cruises 2027 page covers the full range, and the Mediterranean Cruises 2027 All Inclusive page is useful if fare inclusions are important to you.

Transatlantic Crossings

Transatlantic sailings form a solid part of the MSC 2027 fly offering. These are mostly one-way itineraries — so if you embark on one side of the Atlantic, you will need a flight home from the other end. Cruise1st can arrange that return leg, along with any hotels either side, so it all connects cleanly. See our Transatlantic Cruises 2027 page for the broader picture, or the Transatlantic 2027 Cruises with P&O Cruises page if you want to compare lines. The Transatlantic destination page also gives useful context.

South America

MSC operates a meaningful South America programme in 2027, with Santos (near São Paulo) and Buenos Aires among the embarkation points, and Rio de Janeiro featuring as a port of call. The South America destination page has further detail on the region.

Japan and East Asia

MSC also sails to Japan and East Asia in 2027, with Shanghai among the ports used. These longer itineraries suit travellers who want to combine a fly-cruise with serious distance. For a specialist look at Japan sailings in 2027, see our Japan Cruises 2027 page.

The Canary Islands also feature in the MSC fly programme. For dedicated Canary Islands sailings in 2027, the Canary Islands 2027 Cruises and Canary Islands Fly Cruises 2027 pages give a fuller picture of what is available.

What MSC Fly Cruises Include — and How Fare Types Work

These are flight-inclusive sailings, meaning the airfare is built into the package rather than arranged separately. Beyond the flight, what your fare covers depends on the fare type you choose. MSC offers several tiers — fare types such as Bella, Fantastica, Aurea and Yacht Club — each with a different set of inclusions around dining, cabin location and onboard benefits. Our team can explain the differences and help you decide which level suits your trip, rather than leaving you to work through the options alone.

A Cruise1st Package can add hotels, tours, transfers and insurance around your cruise, bundled into one booking. That is particularly useful on a Transatlantic or South America sailing, where you may want a night or two at either end.

Why Book Your MSC Fly Cruise with Cruise1st?

Cruise1st is one of the UK’s leading cruise specialists — not a general travel agent with a cruise tab. That distinction matters when you are choosing between a dozen ships, several fare tiers and departure ports spread across three continents. Our expert advisers know the MSC fleet in detail and can match you to the right sailing rather than the most obvious one.

We are ABTA and ATOL protected, and rated 4.5 out of 5 on Trustpilot from over 7,000 reviews. Every MSC fly cruise booking comes with expert advice before you commit, and we can arrange flights, hotels, transfers, tours and insurance as a single package — one call, one booking, one point of contact if anything needs changing.

Which Ships Sail on MSC Fly Cruises in 2027?

Several ships from the MSC fleet feature across the 2027 fly programme. Below is a closer look at the ships with the most sailings on offer.

MSC Meraviglia

Meraviglia’s most distinctive feature is the Galleria Meraviglia — a 96-metre LED sky promenade that runs the length of the ship’s interior, lined with boutiques, restaurants and nightly entertainment. It is the ship’s social hub, and nothing else in the MSC fleet quite matches it. On deck there is a Polar Aquapark, a full-sized bowling alley and Formula 1 simulators. The MSC Yacht Club offers a quieter, more exclusive experience within the same ship. For cabin choices on Meraviglia, see the MSC Meraviglia cabins and deck plans.

• Inside cabin Bella — 16 m², sleeps up to 4, flexible bed configuration
• Super Family cabin Plus with sea view (FPO) — 48 m², sleeps up to 9, 3 separate bathrooms
• Super Family cabin Plus with balcony (FPB) — 72 m², sleeps up to 9, 2 bathrooms
• Maisonette Suite D3 — 82 m², balcony, 2 levels, private whirlpool
• MSC Yacht Club Duplex Suite — 82 m², 2 decks, butler service, exclusive facilities

MSC Bellissima

Bellissima shares the 96-metre Galleria LED promenade format with Meraviglia — an indoor boulevard of shops, bars and entertainment that forms the ship’s backbone. MSC Yacht Club aboard Bellissima adds a private pool, an exclusive restaurant and 24-hour butler service. The nine restaurants range from a steakhouse to a Teppanyaki table, and a 700 m² children’s zone spread across 7 dedicated clubs makes this one of the more family-ready ships in the fleet. See the MSC Bellissima cabins and deck plans for the full layout.

• Inside cabin Bella — 17 m², sleeps up to 4
• Premium Ocean View Fantastica — 25 m², sleeps up to 6
• Maisonette Suite D3 — 59 m², balcony, 2 bathrooms, 2 separate levels
• Super Family cabin Plus with sea view — 54 m², sleeps up to 10
• MSC Yacht Club Duplex Suite with Whirlpool — 59 m², maisonette layout across 2 decks

MSC Sinfonia

At 65,542 GT, Sinfonia is considerably smaller than the Meraviglia-class ships, and that is a genuine advantage on some itineraries — the ship’s compact Lirica-class size opens up smaller harbours that larger vessels cannot enter. On board there is a top-deck water park, an Aurea Spa with thermal suite, and the Teatro San Carlo for Broadway-style shows. LEGO and Chicco children’s zones add family appeal. See the MSC Sinfonia cabins and deck plans if you want to explore the decks in detail.

• Inside cabin Aurea — 15 m², sleeps up to 4
• Premium Ocean View Fantastica — 22 m², sleeps up to 4
• Suite Fantastica — 26 m², balcony, direct sea air access
• Family Balcony cabin Fantastica (FLA) — 20 m², sleeps up to 4, extra bed

MSC Poesia

Poesia stands out for a couple of features found nowhere else in the MSC fleet: an atrium waterfall and a Zen garden that give the ship a character of its own. The MSC Yacht Club on Poesia was newly expanded from April 2026, delivering butler service, private dining and an exclusive sundeck. The Butcher’s Cut steakhouse and Kaito Sushi Bar sit alongside a broader dining line-up, and the Aurea Spa includes a salt grotto and Kneipp therapy pool. See the MSC Poesia cabins and deck plans for more.

MSC Splendida

Splendida is a Fantasia-class ship at 137,936 GT — large enough to carry 5 swimming pools and an exclusive Top 18 Solarium, yet well-established on a range of routes. The Strand Theatre puts on variety shows nightly, and 20 bars and lounges — including The Purple Jazz Bar and Club 33 disco — keep evenings busy. MSC Yacht Club on Splendida comes with 24-hour butler service, a private pool deck and exclusive access to the L’Etoile gourmet restaurant. See the MSC Splendida cabins and deck plans.

MSC World Europa

World Europa is MSC’s largest ship at 215,863 GT. The Venom Drop @ The Spiral — an 11-deck stainless steel dry slide — is the longest of its kind at sea, and Chef Niklas Ekstedt’s Chef’s Garden Kitchen brings a named chef concept to the dining line-up. Luna Park Arena with dodgems and Guinness World Records live events round out a broad entertainment offer. See the MSC World Europa cabins and deck plans for the full range of accommodation.

Also sailing in the 2027 fly programme: MSC Divina, MSC Musica, MSC Grandiosa and MSC World Asia. Deck plans for each are available: MSC Divina cabins and deck plans, MSC Musica cabins and deck plans, MSC Grandiosa cabins and deck plans and MSC World Asia cabins and deck plans.

MSC Fly Cruises with Flights Included from the UK — How It Works

Every sailing in the 2027 MSC fly programme includes the flight as part of the package. All embarkation ports are overseas — Miami, Barcelona, Santos, Rome (Civitavecchia), Shanghai and others — so your UK-to-port flight is the first leg of the holiday. Cruise1st arranges that flight alongside your cruise, and can add a hotel the night before departure, transfers at each end, and any tours you want to build in. One-way itineraries (where you disembark at a different port to where you boarded) will also require a flight home from the end point — we handle that too, so you are not left to piece together the return leg yourself.

If you want to compare MSC with other lines sailing in 2027, see all 2027 cruises, or browse 2027 cruises from Southampton if a no-fly sailing from the UK is also on your radar.

MSC Cruise Types in 2027

MSC offers a broad range of cruise types across the 2027 fly programme, and the right fit depends on what you want from the trip.

MSC Yacht Club — A Ship Within a Ship

The MSC Yacht Club is available aboard several ships in the fly programme — including Meraviglia, Bellissima, Splendida and Poesia. It operates as a private enclave with a dedicated butler, an exclusive restaurant and lounge, a private pool deck, and priority embarkation. If you want the scale of a large ship but a quieter, more attentive onboard experience, the Yacht Club is worth the step up. Fare types such as exclusive Yacht Club grades are available across a number of ships; our team can talk through which ship and which grade fits your itinerary.

Family Cruising

MSC builds in dedicated family space across much of the 2027 fly fleet. Bellissima’s 700 m² children’s zone across 7 clubs, Sinfonia’s LEGO and Chicco areas, and Meraviglia’s Polar Aquapark all give younger passengers their own space while adults have time elsewhere. Super Family cabins on Meraviglia and Bellissima sleep up to 9 or 10 and keep the whole group in one cabin rather than spread across the ship.

Short and Longer Sailings

The duration range across the MSC 2027 fly programme is wide — from 6-night sailings up to 32 nights — so whether you are looking for a single week or an extended voyage through multiple regions, there is a trip length to match. Most sailings sit around 11 nights. If a shorter taster appeals, see our Mini Cruises with MSC Cruises page.

MSC Deals and Offers in 2027

A good number of sailings in the MSC 2027 fly programme are reduced from their previously listed price for that cabin grade. Discounts reach up to 19% on one departure, though the majority of reduced sailings sit around 5% off — worth factoring in when comparing options. MSC also makes available fare types such as early-saver rates and last-minute offers at various points through the year; the available fare types at the time of booking are something our team can run through with you.

For MSC Caribbean fly cruises in 2027, the Caribbean 2027 Cruises with MSC Cruises page gives a focused view of that region’s sailings and pricing. The Caribbean 2027 cruises with New York stays page is worth a look if you want to combine a sailing with time in the US.
