I saw this earlier, forgot to post about it.

 

Interesting, I wonder whether it will make Carnival's ships more distinct-looking, since some other lines have an all-blue-colored lower hull, while some others are all-white like Carnival's current (now old) scheme?  e.g. Celebrity is all blue, Disney is all (dark) blue, but MSC and RC are all white.

We all care about what is inside the ship, but it would be nice for the package to have a nice cover - Lets hope this works out.

Looks great!

 

Really, though, let's just get cruising first...

[Stallion]

not too bad-just keep the dolphins, sea turtles etc off. I really prefer a more traditional look

This could just be me but I really hope it ushers in a new era for Carnival fonts and branding. I dig this move. The Mardi Gras font is great and has some identity to it, while the Arial-adjacent labels on the current ships is very bland.

Rust, white, and blue might be more affordable.

I thought about this when I saw it also. I thought Carnival used white because it was cheapest, seems like a bad time to change to blue.

I love it!

I read posts on him her over the years and many just called him "Farcus". Like an artist or sculptor.

Perfect for Americas cruise line! Love it! 

[bitemyfly]

as long as they addresses the rust its a high improvement.

Glad to hear the Magic will be one of the first! Hopefully we'll be on her for our b2b in November/December this year

I like it.  When I first saw the Mardi Gras, I hoped it would become the new look for the fleet.

Looks nice.  Reminds me a bit of when American Airlines finally did away with the blinding metal fuselages.

The big question is what paint scheme will Radiance get? I've seen photos that show the name has been physically changed on the bow, and it's still in the "Arial adjacent" type face. It's quite possible that Radiance will be the last "new" all-white hull.

 

It's also possible Sensation and Ecstasy never get the new paint scheme, as both will be >30 years old when they are next due for dry dock (October 2022 and January 2023).

I have also been thinking this....

 

Where did you see pictures of the radiance?

With it looking that rough, they may as well paint it in the new livery. She looks just slightly rustier than when I saw Carnival Dream in Cozumel in 2019.
