One of the world’s largest cruise ships makes Florida debut

Meraviglia is the first in its class built at what was STX France, and is now Chantiers de l’Atlantique shipyard in Saint-Nazaire, France. A sister ship, MSC Bellissima, debuted earlier this year, and the two share the seventh spot in the list of world’s largest cruise ships. No. 1 is Royal Caribbean Symphony of the Seas followed by Harmony of the Seas, Allure and Oasis of the Seas, the German ship AIDAnova and then an MSC ship in the new Meraviglia-Plus class that debuted this month, MSC Grandiosa.
