Itineraries
MSC Poesia itinerary program is based on deployments in South America (homeporting in Santos), Southern Europe-Mediterranean Sea (roundtrips from Genoa-Milano, Marseille, Barcelona), Northern Europe-Baltic Sea (homeporting in Warnemunde-Rostock Germany and Copenhagen Denmark).
Poesia operates cheap Transatlantic repositioning crossings (between South America and Europe) and is one of MSC's "world cruise ships" offering each year a Grand Voyage (starting in January) with length 100+ days.
Due to the Coronavirus crisis, the MSC ship Poesia was paused for 2+ years (between March 2020 and May 2022), restarting operations on May 1 (Europe/Mediterranean-Baltic repositioning).
