Thanks for posting this!!! Some great itineraries!! I didnt see when booking will begin, or can you book now. There will probably be a press release tomorrow.

[Guienevere_Arianette]

No. It is not.

 

[OhioJeff]

is this a conquest class ship?

 

No, I guess its Splendor class, although I dont think Carnival has officially called it that. This ship was designed for Costa, I believe then they decided to let Carnival have it.

 

Here is the initial press release.

Couple of pics of the Costa Concordia which has the center pool area enclosed. Seems to be the main difference from Conquest class. Note the big screen's there too!

Is the Splendor a sister of the Concordia that is going to Carnival?

[FONSIDONZI03]

There will be a new class of ships that will be coming out. The Splendor class will start when the Splendor comes out. I believe there are a couple more to come out in 2010!!!

No, as of right now, Splendor is the only ship of its size(112,000) going to the Carnival Line.

The next set of ships will be 130,000..Carnival Dream and Magic.

Yes.

[REDZONE]

Thats cool

[EdukatedRedHed]

OMG OMG OMG! Thank you so much for this link! I talked to a PVP yesterday and asked when the Splendor would be going to Northern Europe and she said "July & August." :eek: I automatically assumed she meant THIS July. I was bummed b/c there is NO way I can take 3 vacations this year (Spirit in 4 weeks and Disney in December!) However, now that I know it's in 2008 ... HERE I COME! That is an AWESOME itinerary! My bday is in August ... guess what I want next year? :D

You do now, or did you mean you wouldn't want to face your fellow pax that close. ;)

 

Actually, as you probably are aware, most turn their chairs to face the sun anyway.

[FONSIDONZI03]

This will be a nice little cruise to take next year to Northern Europe. I can't wait!

[dbcruzin]

is this a conquest class ship?

 

 

In essence, yes. Same layout but with 2000 more GRT. But remember, that doesn't mean weight, it means space ratio and capacity. So, I'm guessing they just redesigned things to create more usable space.

When originally ordered, the ship was supposed to go to Costa, but Carnival Corp changed their minds and decided to have it go to CCL instead. You can go back a couple of years in Carnival's press releases for the info.

 

I hope my answer wasn't too technical. :p
