Explora Journeys, the luxury lifestyle brand from MSC Group, just took a massive step forward in its journey. Explora Journeys reached three major milestones in its continuing evolution of its fast-growing fleet.
The brand celebrated the float out of Explora III, the coin ceremony of Explora IV and the steel cutting for Explora V. By 2028 Explora Journeys will constitute six ships. Explora I and Explora II already welcome guests, with Explora III joining the fleet in 2026, followed by Explora IV and Explora V in 2027, and Explora VI in 2028.
From Explora III onward, the four newest ships will be powered by liquified natural gas, a transitional fuel offering a substantial reduction in emissions compared to conventional marine fuels.
