History - construction and ownership
MSC Cruises (MSC Crociere) is a passenger shipping company headquartered in Genoa and Naples. It was established in 1960.

By annual passenger shipping volumes, MSC is ranked world's 4th largest cruise company (after Carnival Corporation, RCCL-Royal Caribbean and NCL-Norwegian) with over 5% global market share.
The 137,936-ton, 3,959-passenger cruise ship MSC Fantasia debuted in December 2008. At that time her capacity made this MSC cruise ship the largest ever built for the line. Fantasia is a brand-new class representative for this rapidly growing company.
