About This Cruise
The 18 Night Panama Canal is a 18-night one-way itinerary aboard MSC Poesia. You board in Miami and disembark in Seattle, calling at 9 ports across 7 countries along the way.
In sequence the voyage takes in Florida (Miami), Colombia (Cartagena), Panama (Colon), Costa Rica (Puntarenas), Mexico (Cabo San Lucas), California (San Diego, San Francisco) and 1 more.
As a one-way sailing you'll fly into Miami and home from Seattle, so it's worth checking the two gateways before you book. Longer hops are crossed on the 10 days at sea, keeping daylight hours for the ports. Sailing dates, cabin availability and fares vary by season — use Check Dates & Prices for live pricing, or call our team to talk through the options.
