Fans of MSC Cruises’ luxury Yacht Club will soon see the “ship-within-a-ship” concept expand to two more vessels by 2027.

The cruise line announced on February 2, 2026, that it will add its MSC Yacht Club to both MSC Musica and MSC Orchestra, completing the rollout of the premium enclave across the entire Musica class.

The upgrades will be carried out as part of scheduled refurbishments, with the 92,409-gross-ton MSC Musica receiving its Yacht Club installation in late 2026 ahead of its South American deployment.

MSC Orchestra, also 92,409 gross tons, will follow in the first quarter of 2027, in time for a Mediterranean season sailing from Bari, Italy.

With the additions, all four Musica-class ships, including MSC Poesia and MSC Magnifica, will feature the Yacht Club. The move brings one of MSC Cruises’ most popular offerings to smaller, more traditional cruise rather than just its newer mega-vessels.

Once completed, the MSC Yacht Club will be available on 19 ships across the fleet. The concept provides passengers with expansive suites with 24-hour butler and a dedicated concierge service, and exclusive private dining and venues.

“MSC Cruises is always looking for new ways to enhance the onboard experience, striving to create exceptional and elevated concepts to ensure that guests will remember their cruise as the ultimate vacation experience,” said the cruise line in a statement.

“With the addition of MSC Musica and MSC Orchestra, the MSC Yacht Club will now be available across 19 ships fleetwide, further expanding its appeal to guests seeking a premium and effortlessly luxurious way to travel,” the company added.

While the Musica-class ships are smaller than MSC Cruises’ newest vessels like MSC World America, which has the largest Yacht Club, the cruise line is working to bring consistency across ship sizes.

MSC Cruises did not specify the total number of Yacht Club suites that will be added to each ship or whether other public spaces will be modified as part of the refurbishments. Further details are expected closer to the opening of Yacht Club sales for both vessels, coming soon.

Currently, MSC Musica and MSC Orchestra each accommodate 3,223 passengers.

Upcoming for Musica and Orchestra

The MSC Yacht Club additions are closely tied to upcoming deployments for both ships, giving guests access to premium experiences across multiple regions and sailing dates.

MSC Musica will operate in South America from November 2026 through April 2027. During the season, the ship will offer itineraries focused on Brazilian ports, as well as a series of 8- and 9-night sailings over Christmas and New Year.

The voyages will call on Buenos Aires, Argentina, and Montevideo and Punta del Este, Uruguay. The season will conclude with a 16-night transatlantic crossing, departing Santos, Brazil, on April 1, 2027, and arriving in Genoa, Italy.

MSC Orchestra’s Yacht Club debut will take place shortly after. Beginning March 13, 2027, the ship will sail from Bari, through April 24, operating Eastern Mediterranean itineraries. 

These sailings will include calls in Turkey, with scheduled stops in Izmir and Istanbul, along with ports in Greece, such as Piraeus and Corfu.

Onboard, Yacht Club guests have access to a suite-only restaurant, lounge, and sun deck, separate from the ship’s main public areas. Accommodations include upgraded suites designed to offer more space than standard staterooms, along with expanded in-room services.

Additional inclusions for Yacht Club passengers include daily in-suite refreshments, unpacking and packing services, and access to premium bath amenities. Private shopping appointments in onboard boutiques outside regular hours may also be arranged, along with customized shore excursions and private transportation in select ports.

The Yacht Club is expected to be added to the upcoming World-class ships currently scheduled to debut through 2031.
