MSC Cruises has announced that the MSC Fantasia ship will operate 15 seven-night cruises with embarkation and disembarkation in the Port of Funchal from December 15, 2026, to March 23, 2027. These itineraries will head to the Canary Islands, a popular winter destination for Portuguese passengers.
The cruises will include calls in Arrecife (Lanzarote), Las Palmas (Gran Canaria), Santa Cruz de La Palma, Santa Cruz de Tenerife, and Puerto del Rosario (Fuerteventura). The company will also provide flights from Lisbon and Porto to Funchal to facilitate passenger access. A new feature will be the renovation of the MSC Yacht Club restaurant, completed by December 2026, making its debut on these cruises.
