I expect she will look like this until her next drydock, whenever that may be. Not necessarily a bad thing, at least if something else happens, the hoses will reach it. It also looks much more vented so maybe that is a benefit too? Don't look to bad IMO. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't do that, but until she actually picks up passengers in PC, we won't know if she might make a right turn and head for the scrapyard, right after they pay for the funnel work. 😉 1 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jetsfan58 Posted June 11, 2022 #37 Share Posted June 11, 2022 Please be patient folks and let Carnival perform the correct and proper maintenance. We don't want this to happen again to any other Carnival ship! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phoneman69 Posted June 11, 2022 #38 Share Posted June 11, 2022 Sailing on this ship Freedom in Sept will the funnel have been replaced by then ? Not sure when scheduled dry dock is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I bet it increases the passenger compacity on that ship. People wanting pictures of the missing funnel/ wings.

Truncated stack, sheet Metal job all the way. In the end it was not feasible to fix the wing or replace the wing in time to make the next sailing, fixing to return it to the original spec probably will be done next time they are in dry dock, so the claim that this was a wet willie all along did not hold up. And the length of time that will have transpired before the 'wing' is repaired will be significantly longer. But passengers are sailing, and that is what really counts here.

Happy Sailing I suppose she STILL technically hasn't sailed yet, so that 25:1 on the scrapyard is still in play. Hold all tickets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Essiesmom Posted June 11, 2022 #47 Share Posted June 11, 2022 And she's off! . And not necessarily unique to Carnival ships...Jubilee had her funnel docked when she became Paccific Sun for P&O-AU. Tropical lost hers when she went to Costa.

Guest BasicSailor Posted June 11, 2022 #50 Share Posted June 11, 2022 Maybe it's going to be left like that 😉. Who knows when a wing burns off it could jinx the ship to replace it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
