MSC Cruises has confirmed that MSC Euribia will return to the Arabian Gulf for the winter 2025–2026 season, offering a series of 3-, 4-, and 7-night roundtrip sailings from Dubai. The itineraries will include key regional ports such as Abu Dhabi, Doha, and Sir Bani Yas Island, providing guests with an opportunity to experience the Gulf’s leading destinations during the region’s most favorable season.
The deployment is designed for travelers seeking a premium, efficient travel experience. MSC Euribia consolidates accommodation, dining, entertainment, and leisure facilities into a single, seamless offering. Guests will be able to embark without the complications typically associated with international travel, utilizing Dubai as a homeport for all departures.
The company continues to position the MSC Yacht Club as an enhanced offering for passengers preferring elevated privacy and service. The Yacht Club section of MSC Euribia features 24-hour butler service, an exclusive restaurant, a private sundeck, and keycard-access-only areas, allowing for a more secluded cruise experience while retaining access to the ship’s full amenities.
Angelo Capurro, Executive Director of MSC Cruises, noted the growing demand among GCC residents for luxurious regional cruising options. MSC Euribia, he said, is positioned to meet this demand with an integrated, high-comfort experience that showcases the Arabian Gulf.
The sailing season leverages the Gulf’s ideal winter conditions, characterized by moderate temperatures and favorable sea states. MSC Euribia’s itinerary highlights include Dubai, where guests can explore major architectural landmarks, luxury retail centers, and world-class dining venues. In Abu Dhabi, cruisers may visit the Sheikh Zayed Grand Mosque and the Louvre Abu Dhabi, among other attractions. The itinerary also includes Sir Bani Yas Island, a protected natural reserve featuring exclusive beach access for MSC guests and opportunities to observe free-roaming wildlife. Doha offers cultural landmarks such as the Souq Waqif and the Msheireb Museums, while Manama, Bahrain, presents a combination of historic sites like Bahrain Fort and modern cultural institutions.
MSC Euribia will commence her seasonal operations on November 8, 2025. Bookings are currently available for all itineraries, ranging from short 3-night cruises to extended 7-night voyages.
In a further expansion of its commitment to the Arabian Gulf market, MSC has announced that MSC World Europa will be deployed to the region for the winter 2026–2027 season. The vessel will offer similar itineraries, reaffirming the line’s long-term strategic focus on the Gulf cruise sector.
