25 ships, six classes.
Class is the distinction that matters. Two Lirica-class ships are near-identical products; a Meraviglia and a World-class ship are not.
Lirica Class
The smallest and oldest ships in the fleet, and the ones that still feel European rather than resort-scale.
No solo studio cabins on this class.
Musica Class
Mid-size ships built around a central atrium, with a quieter, more traditional feel than the newer hardware.
No solo studio cabins on this class.
Fantasia Class
The first MSC ships to carry the Yacht Club, and still a common way to try it without paying World-class fares.
No solo studio cabins on this class.
Meraviglia Class
The generation that introduced true solo studio cabins, plus the two-deck indoor promenade with its LED sky.
Has solo studio cabins.
Seaside Class
Built for warm weather — outdoor promenades and a stern designed around the sea rather than an atrium.
No solo studio cabins on this class.
World Class
The newest and largest ships, LNG-powered, with the widest range of cabins including studios.
Has solo studio cabins.
