The Gateway

Carnival has revealed the final zone aboard Carnival Celebration which will debut in November 2022. It's The Gateway, whose main elements will be two bars and a restaurant along with a couple of pretty interesting features. 

The complete story appeared in the July 8 edition of Cruise News Daily. 

 

In this view of The Gateway note the split-flap board above Latitudes and the virtual "windows" on the left and above.

Stepping into the Past

When Carnival Celebration debuts in November (2022), passengers will be able to enter the Golden Jubilee Bar through the original polished brass and glass doors that were at the entrance to the night club aboard TSS Carnivale thus literally walking through Carnival Cruise Line's history. The lounge will be filled with memorabilia and recreated design elements from Carnival's 50-year history. 

The complete story appeared in the April 29 edition of Cruise News Daily.

Carnival Celebration Floats Out

The float out process for Carnival's second LNG-powered Excel-class ship began at Meyer Turku on Friday. The celebration and ceremony was actually for opening the valves and allowing water to flow into the massive dry dock at the frigid Turku, Finland yard.
