MSC World Europa to Feature Largest Kids’ Area in the Fleet

MSC Cruises’ upcoming flagship MSC World Europa will feature the largest kids’ space in the entire fleet, spanning over 8,200 square feet and offering seven distinct spaces for everyone from babies to teens.

The kids’ clubs are organized by age group:

• For infants and toddlers: Baby Club (0 – 2 years), cared for by specially trained crew members
• For younger kids: Mini Club and Juniors Club (3 – 11 years)
• For older kids: Young Club and Teen Club (12 – 17 years), including the brand-new TEENS LAB, a totally immersive, tech-filled, modern room just for teens

MSC Cruises offers a range of services for babies and young kids, including the mini-club for those under 3 as well as a dedicated childcare service. Many of these services are offered in collaboration with Chicco, a long-term partner of MSC Cruises.
