You get around 9 hours in each port, which is enough for an excursion, lunch, and some wandering around on your own. When you're not ashore, You won't go hungry on MSC World Europa. 4 restaurants come with the fare, plus 5 more when you feel like treating yourself. A March departure catches that sweet window of warm-enough weather before the summer rush. Good route, good ship, good timing. It all lines up.
