The Launch of the Fantasia in Naples

On the December 18, 2008, the MSC Cruise ship, Fantasia, which has been hailed as the most beautiful ship in the world, was christened at a spectacular ceremony in Naples.

The ribbon that launched this fantastic liner was cut by the legendary Sophia Loren, a fitting ambassador for Naples and Italy.

The MSC Fantasia is taller than the Leaning Tower of Pisa and longer than the Eiffel Tower. The ship's design combines traditional Italian elegance with ground-breaking technological features. The cruise experience on the Fantasia promises superior guest comfort and unprecedented environmental protection.

The launch of the MSC Fantasia marks the beginning of a new era in cruising. The liner is the first of the MSC Cruises fleet to feature the MSC Yacht Club, a six star VIP area with 24-hour butler service, luxury suites and private lounges.
