Jumping Cruiser Posted November 4, 2021 #2 Share Posted November 4, 2021 MSC Virtuosa UK 2022??? When Southampton’s new Horizon terminal officially opened in September, MSC UK’s Managing Director Antonio Paradiso mentioned the possibility of a larger ship coming to Southampton in 2022 and it looks like this may be the case! After looking at ABP Southampton’s cruise schedule today, it appears that MSC Virtuosa is scheduled to call on 29th April 2022. Coincidently, this is the date MSC Magnifica is supposed to depart for a 2-day cruise, but her berth booking doesn’t appear to be there 🤔. Could this suggest that Virtuosa will take over Magnifica’s Southampton itineraries for 2022? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
monsterl Posted November 4, 2021 #3 Share Posted November 4, 2021 Yes, Virtuosa will take over the Magnifica departures in Southampton and Magnifica will be offering new Norway cruises from Hamburg from April 2022. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Preziosa Posted November 5, 2021 #5 Share Posted November 5, 2021 Will it Be Virtuosa or Preziosa from Southampton summer 2022... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kim Viktor Posted November 6, 2021 #6 Share Posted November 6, 2021 A bit of off topic, but does someone know which ship(s) that will be based in Hamburg summer 2022? (Now when Orchestra went to South Africa and won't be back in Europe until June). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Replacing Preziosa with a non-Yacht Club ship is a BIG CANCEL for us. We have two Yacht Club suites on Preziosa for the 14-day itinerary on May 29, 2022.

showingdiva Posted December 2, 2021 #11 Share Posted December 2, 2021 And I've just booked myself a birthday holiday weekend on Virtuosa, having found myself slightly sad at the thought of not seeing her again in Southampton. A nice little prelude to my No.1 Queen Mary 2. Happy ☺️ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
