MSC Euribia

MSC Euribia is a cruise ship operated by MSC Cruises, delivered in May 2023 as the second of the line's ships powered by liquefied natural gas (LNG). A development of the Meraviglia-Plus design, she measures about 184,000 gross tons and carries passengers in roughly 2,400 staterooms across 19 decks. She takes her name from Eurybia, the ancient Greek goddess who harnessed the winds, weather and constellations to master the seas.

The ship was built at Chantiers de l'Atlantique in Saint-Nazaire, France, and is immediately recognisable by her hull artwork: a marine-themed mural titled #SaveTheSea by German artist Alex Flaemig, chosen through an international design contest. The livery signals the environmental positioning of the ship, which pairs LNG propulsion with advanced wastewater treatment, shore-power readiness and energy-efficiency systems MSC has described as among the most advanced in its fleet.

Onboard, Euribia carries the Meraviglia-generation signatures, including the indoor Galleria promenade beneath an LED sky screen, a large theatre, an aft aqua park, specialty dining and the ship-within-a-ship MSC Yacht Club suite complex forward on the upper decks. Family facilities, a full spa and multiple pools round out the public spaces.

Since entering service the ship has been based in Northern Europe for summer seasons, sailing Norwegian fjords and Baltic itineraries from ports such as Kiel and Copenhagen, with Mediterranean deployments at other times of year. She was formally named in Copenhagen in June 2023, with Sophia Loren once again serving as godmother in the MSC tradition.
