Carnival Celebration Gets Her Funnel
Carnival Cruise Line’s latest new build, Carnival Celebration, received its signature funnel at the Meyer Turku shipyard in Finland on Tuesday afternoon. The new LNG ship will debut from the United Kingdom in November with its maiden voyage being a transatlantic from Southampton to Miami, Florida.
Celebration will have a lot of the same features as Mardi Gras — which debuted July 31 last year in Port Canaveral — including the BOLT roller coaster.
Once in Miami, the ship will sail six, seven, and eight-night Caribbean voyages.
In March, Carnival will celebrate its 50th anniversary.
