Frequently Asked Questions About MSC Grand Voyages Cruise Deals
What is an MSC Grand Voyage?
MSC Grand Voyages are the cruise line's extended sailings — usually somewhere between 10 and 21 nights — that cross oceans or move ships between regions of the world. You'll find transatlantic crossings linking Europe with the Americas, repositioning sailings that swap ships between Northern Europe and the Mediterranean as the seasons change, and longer one-off journeys down to South America, across to the Caribbean, or south to Cape Town.
How long are MSC Grand Voyages?
Most fall in the 10-to-21-night range. Transatlantic crossings tend to land at around 14 nights, and the seasonal repositioning sailings between Northern Europe and the Mediterranean usually run 10 to 14 nights. If you're heading further afield — think South America, Asia, or Africa — voyages can stretch past three weeks.
Where do MSC Grand Voyages sail from?
Departure ports change with the route, but the most common ones are Barcelona, Kiel, Bari, Civitavecchia (the cruise port for Rome), Cape Town, Genoa, Marseille, Tarragona, Shanghai, Southampton, Warnemünde, Malaga, Copenhagen, and Durban. On the other end, you're typically arriving into Port Canaveral (just outside Orlando), Miami, Barcelona, or Piraeus near Athens.
Which MSC ships sail Grand Voyages?
Right now you'll mostly see MSC Grandiosa, MSC Euribia, MSC Orchestra, MSC Seashore, and MSC Seaside on these routes — though MSC rotates ships across Grand Voyages every season, so the specific vessel on any given itinerary changes depending on when and where you're sailing.
How much do MSC Grand Voyages cost?
They're genuinely some of the best-value long cruises out there. Prices start at roughly $40* per person per night (taxes and fees already included), so a 14-night transatlantic in an interior cabin can come in around $558* per person total. Ocean view, balcony, and Yacht Club fares go up from there, but the per-night cost stays notably lower than most shorter sailings.
What is included on an MSC Grand Voyage?
The base fare covers your cabin, all meals in the main dining rooms and buffets, the onboard entertainment, kids' clubs, pool access, gym facilities, and a wide range of daily activities. What's not included — and worth budgeting for separately — is alcohol and specialty drinks, specialty restaurants, Wi-Fi, shore excursions, and access to the MSC Yacht Club enclave. All of those are available as add-on packages.
What's the difference between a Grand Voyage and a repositioning cruise?
Think of Grand Voyages as the broader category. Every repositioning cruise (when MSC moves a ship from one home region to another, like Mediterranean to Caribbean) qualifies as a Grand Voyage — but Grand Voyages also include transatlantic crossings, world segments, and other long-haul journeys that aren't strictly about relocating a ship. So all repositioning cruises are Grand Voyages, but not all Grand Voyages are repositioning cruises.
