MSC ARMONIA against its type

Built in 1999, it is 11 years older than the median cruise ship on this register, which was built in 2010 (195 vessels with a known build year). At 65,542 gross tonnage it is smaller than 59% of the other 177 cruise ships with a recorded tonnage. It is one of 15 cruise ships here under the Panama flag, 7.4% of the 202 on the register. The same builder is recorded for 51 other vessels here, 35 of them cruise ships. MSC Cruises is linked to 24 vessels on this register. The returns for 2018–2025 all give Panama as port of registry.

Its 47,856 t of CO₂ for 2025 is 1.5 times the median of 31,269 t among the 200 cruise ships on this register that reported for 2025. Per nautical mile it emitted 657.6 kg CO₂, 20% below the type median of 821.3 kg. It logged 4,626 hours at sea against a median of 3,133 hours for its type that year. 9.8% of its 2025 emissions were at berth; the median for cruise ships was 15.1%. Across 5 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2023 (65,606 t) and the lowest 2021 (9,364 t). Of the 8 sister ships listed below with a 2025 return, 7 reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile than this vessel.

Reported CO₂ in 2025 was 411.1% higher than in 2021, for EU/EEA voyages only. No return is recorded for 2019, 2020, so the series has gaps.

From 2024 to 2025, emissions rose 4.0% and CO₂ per nautical mile fell 21.2%.Distance is missing for at least one of the two years, so activity and efficiency cannot be separated here.
