Carnival may be the biggest operator in the cruise world (Carnival, Holland-America, Cunard, Costa and more) but it’s had an image problem in the past few years, and rival Princess and Norwegian have been giving them a real run.
Now Carnival’s getting ready to launch its first new ship in four years, Carnival Vista, which will be the biggest in its fleet, and feature the first-ever IMAX at sea, along with a host of other amusements and rides (almost as if they want you to forget you’re on a ship?). The new addition is being built in Trieste, Italy, and will do five months of European cruising before arriving in the U.S. in Nov. 2016. MORE
