In brief
MSC Divina is a cruise ship measured at 139,400 gross tonnage (GT) owned and operated by MSC Cruises. She was constructed from 2010 to 2012 being originally named MSC Fantastica while under construction. MSC renamed her when near complete in the shipyard to honour the actress Sophia Loren.
The MSC Divina is the third ship of the four Fantasia-class cruise ships, built after MSC Splendida and MSC Fantasia, and followed by her identical sister ship the MSC Preziosa. MSC Divina and MSC Preziosa are larger than the two previous ships in the class (which were of 137,936 tons each). She is the twelfth ship in MSC's fleet, and was the joint largest ship with MSC Preziosa at 139,400 tons, until the completion of the company's MSC Seaside (160,000 tons) and MSC Meraviglia (171,598 tons) in 2017. 3,502 passengers in 1,539 cabins are accommodated with a crew complement of 1,388. The MSC Divina entered service in May 2012, with her identical sister ship MSC Preziosa following in March 2013. MSC Divina cruises in the Caribbean and Mediterranean.

In context
Every figure in this section is a count, a rank or a percentile over vessels actually held in this registry — not over the world fleet, which is larger. Nothing here is estimated.
At 139,072 gross tons, MSC Divina is the 1,763rd largest of the 84,014 vessels in this registry that report a tonnage. The median across that set is 5,994 GT, so this hull is about 23 times the typical vessel on record here. The largest measures 499,167 GT.
Among the 665 cruise ships held here, it ranks 58th by tonnage — larger than 88% of that group. Their median tonnage is 43,009 GT, and the largest tenth begin at 143,289 GT. The flag most often flown by this group is The Bahamas (133 ships). The yard that appears most often against it is Fincantieri, with 112 hulls on record.
Panama is the country of registry for 9,598 vessels in this directory, of which MSC Divina is the 272nd largest by tonnage. The most common class under that flag is vessels this registry holds no type classification for (5,698 ships), and the median vessel measures 18,203 GT. Browse every ship flagged Panama.
Narrowing to both dimensions at once, this registry holds 43 cruise ships flying the Panama flag, of which none is larger than MSC Divina.
MSC Divina was built in 2012, making it 14 years old. It is one of 2,747 hulls in this registry delivered that year, a cohort whose median tonnage is 23,456 GT; within it this ship is the 114th largest. Across the whole of the 2010s the registry holds 20,111 vessels, median 23,456 GT. The median build year across the entire registry is 1995.
The registry attributes 7 vessels to STX France, with a median tonnage of 97,741 GT, delivered between 1989 and 2019. See the rest of that yard’s output.
At 333.3 m overall, MSC Divina is 135.2 m longer than the 198.1 m median for cruise ships on record, with a beam of 37.9 m and a draft of 8.5 m.
IMO numbers are issued in broadly chronological blocks. Within 500 either side of 9585285 this registry holds 43 other vessels, whose median build year is 2011 and which range from 2009 to 2021. That places this hull’s registration in the same part of the series, consistent with its recorded build year of 2012.
Its IMO number, 9585285, carries its own check digit. The first six digits are weighted seven down to two and summed — 9×7 + 5×6 + 8×5 + 5×4 + 2×3 + 8×2 = 175 — and the last digit of that total, 5, must equal the seventh digit, 5. It does, so this number is well formed.
