Cape Town - The popular South African cruise liner, the MSC Sinfonia, will be one of a few MSC cruise ships undergoing a 200 million Euro upgrade in the Fincantieri shipyard in Palermo, Sicily.
The improved MSC Sinfonia is planned to return to South African seas in time for the 2015/2016 cruising season, reports iAfrica.
Only 4 of the twelve ships in the MSC fleet will be revamped in this 'Renaissance Program' - the MSC Armonia, MSC Licrica, the MSC Opera and the MSC Sinfonia.
They are planned to be lengthened by inserting a pre-made 24 meter long section to the vessel, that would enable the it to hold more than 600 passengers extra.
Facilities, such as a Baby Club childcare unit and a Young Club unit for older children, will be also be initiated as part of the improvement program. Technological improvements, as well as an upgrade to the menus and the beloved 20-hour buffet are also something cruisers can look forward to.
