On the early morning of June 3, 2025, a technical defect in the switchboard in the engine room of the 'MSC Orchestra' caused smoke development and a power outage for approximately one to two hours. The safety systems in the immediate vicinity were able to contain the disruption. Other areas of the ship, including guest areas, were not affected. No injuries were reported. The ship's passengers were immediately informed of the situation, and it was communicated via loudspeaker that the ship was in a safe position. There was, however, no oppen fire.

Although the technical problem has been resolved, boarding in Genoa and Marseille was canceled to allow further inspections for possible defects and repairs. The current cruise has been canceled. Guests have been contacted, support was being provided, and appropriate refunds were to be issued to affected passengers.
