Fincantieri laid the keel for a new cruise ship at its Monfalcone shipyard on Thursday, June 24.
MSC Seascape will be the second ship in a series to be built by Fincantieri for MSC Cruises. Its earlier sister, MSC Seashore, is nearing completion and is slated to enter service this August.
The 339-metre MSC Seascape will boast 2,270 cabins that can house 5,877 guests, 11 dining venues, 19 bars and lounges, and six pools.
The vessel is scheduled to enter service in November 2022.
