Frequently Asked Questions
No, not yet. She is under construction at Fincantieri and her entry into service is announced for 2027. She will run on liquefied natural gas. No detailed specification has been published for this hull, and we will not borrow her sisters' figures to fill the gap.
To the MSC group. This is its luxury brand, separate from the mainstream cruise line of the same name: different fleet, different ships, different clientele. Six hulls were ordered together from the Fincantieri yard in Italy, and three are sailing today.
A longer list than average: gratuities, wines, spirits, cocktails, soft drinks, coffees, teas, Wi-Fi, port taxes, spa access, shuttles into town and every restaurant but one. Shore excursions and spa treatments stay outside it.
Yes, and it is the point that changes a comparison most. No daily service charge is added to your onboard account, whereas several American lines in this catalogue carry one the guest only sees on disembarkation.
No, they are paid separately. It is the sharpest gap from Regent and Ponant, where shore outings are in the fare. The counterweight is the shuttles into town, which are included and let you visit on your own without buying an organised outing.
Yes, with no quota. No minutes to watch, no device count to declare, no package to buy at departure. On a crossing of several days without a port call, that is a real difference from lines that sell it as a package.
All of them, without exception. No inside cabin, no porthole, no entry category to avoid: every cabin is a suite with a private terrace. The brand set itself that constraint in the first drawings, and it explains the low density of these hulls.
We do not give that figure, for lack of sources that agree. What is verifiable, and what we write everywhere: every cabin is a terrace suite. The exact deck plan for the ship and the date can be requested before booking.
One only, with an optional food and wine pairing. The others are in the fare, with no cover charge and no quota of visits, which is not the rule at every competitor in this segment.
Access is, treatments are not. You can spend your days in the facilities at no cost, but a massage or a treatment is charged aboard. The nuance often escapes people at the moment of comparing.
Thirty-three when we measured: six in 2027, twenty-seven in 2028. One line appears twice in the listing, so the distinct inventory is slightly shorter. A calendar moves, so ask for the current list before locking in flights.
Yes, one line on this page. We give both figures rather than let the raw number create a false impression of plenty. Across the fleet, some lines repeat, so the distinct inventory is shorter than the headline total.
Three only: EXPLORA I since 2023, EXPLORA II since September 2024, EXPLORA III since 23 July 2026. EXPLORA IV, V and VI are under construction, and the first two of those already sell one hundred and thirty dates between them.
The figure is published nowhere, for none of the six ships. We check it with the line at booking, for the chosen ship and date, instead of quoting a number we could not guarantee.
Your agency, and it alone. Nothing establishes a Quebec licence for this carrier. Voyages AquaTerra operates under a licence from the Office de la protection du consommateur, your payments pass through a trust account and the compensation fund covers your departure.
