The newest MSC Cruises' ship, the MSC Magnifica, will be christened on Saturday, March 6, in Hamburg, Germany. Sophia Loren will be the godmother. The MSC Magnifica will join the 10 other ships in the MSC fleet. 
Six of the ships have been launched in the past five years, giving MSC Cruises one of the youngest fleets in the industry.
The MSC Magnifica will sail the eastern Mediterranean beginning March 20, for 7-night itineraries departing Venice, Italy and calling at Bari, Italy; Katakolon (Olympia) Greece; Izmir, Turkey; Istanbul, Turkey; and Dubrovnik, Croatia.
Although the MSC ships are targeted towards the mainstream cruiser, I sailed in the luxurious MSC Yacht Club on the MSC Splendida last year, and loved this "ship within a ship" concept.
