The Port Adds Another Ship to the Roster

January 28, 2025 – Port Canaveral is the second-busiest cruise port in the world, and with the recent addition of the 215,000-ton World Class ship, MSC Grandiosa, the pace shows no sign of lessening.

Seven cruise lines serve the Caribbean market sailing from Port Canaveral—Carnival, Celebrity, Disney, MSC, Norwegian, Princess and Royal Caribbean.

“We are excited to have MSC Cruises expand their presence at Port Canaveral with the arrival of MSC Grandiosa and the deployment of their fourth World Class ship to homeport with us,” said Capt. John Murray, Port Canaveral CEO. “The addition of these exceptional ships to our homeported fleet will add even more sailing options from Central Florida and reaffirm the cruise industry’s confidence in our ability to consistently deliver a world-class guest experience.”

Port Canaveral is one of the jewels of Florida’s Space Coast and a short drive from Viera. The options for cruise lovers to have a “bon voyage” keep getting better, and that’s always “tres bon”*.

*Very good.
