MSC Cruises Unveils Suite Offerings Aboard MSC World Asia

MSC Cruises’ newest flagship, MSC World Asia, will offer the largest variety of MSC Yacht Club suites on any ship in the line’s fleet when she begins sailing in the Mediterranean starting December 4, 2026.

The new Royal Duplex Suite, spanning two decks and 570 square feet, will feature two separate bedrooms and 118 square feet of private balcony space with a hot tub. With sleeping space for up to six guests, this new suite is perfect for families or groups, with an expansive living room for the ultimate entertainment space.

MSC World Asia’s MSC Yacht Club spans more than 106,000 square feet with its bi-level private sundeck featuring luxurious outdoor furniture by Unopiù, along with a bar and grill for al fresco dining on the prestigious foredecks of the ship. With 144 suites across seven categories, the MSC Yacht Club will offer accommodations to suit every kind of cruiser.

The MSC Yacht Club is MSC Cruises’ luxury, all-inclusive “ship-within-a-ship” concept, offering a variety of exclusive benefits and facilities including a dedicated lounge and restaurant, and 24-hour butler and concierge services. MSC Yacht Club guests also benefit from a premium drink package, unlimited Wi-Fi, priority embarkation and disembarkation, and access to the Aurea Spa thermal area and exclusive shore excursions.

Like its sister ships, MSC World Asia will feature seven onboard districts, each with its own facilities, designed to help guests navigate the ship and choose their own vacation experience.
