MSC Cruises canceled around six months of cruises. The cruise line scrapped planned sailings between Nov. 8, 2026, and April 11, 2027, on its MSC Meraviglia ship, and the vessel will spend its winter 2026-2027 season in Miami rather than New York. β€œIn response to the demand we are seeing, this will mark the first season with four ships homeporting in Miami, as MSC Meraviglia joins MSC World America, MSC Poesia, and MSC Seaside,” the cruise line told USA TODAY in an emailed statement. β€œAll four ships will sail from our new, state-of-the-art MSC Cruise Terminal at PortMiami, offering an exciting mix of newly introduced sailings and guest-favorite itineraries to the Caribbean and The Bahamas.” The ship will sail six-and-eight-night cruises with stops in Turks and Caicos, the Dominican Republic, Puerto Rico and more, the company said. Impacted guests were given multiple options, including rebooking on one of Meraviglia's new cruises from Miami – or any seven-night sailing from Miami, Port Canaveral or Galveston, Texas – or opting for a future cruise credit or refund.
