Cruise Ship "Carnival Spendour"

Carnival Splendor will be the first of the completely new class of Carnival Cruise Lines ships. The ship is being built in Fincantieri, Italy and is going to be launched in 2008.

The ship will be a little bigger than Carnival's previous Triumph-class cruise ships. With 112,000 tons of tonnage, Carnival Splendor will be the biggest ships in CCL service, though Destiny-class ships can take three hundred passengers more than her.

The ship herself will have a few radically new design ideas. The Camp Carnival facility will have over 5,500 square ft. with a water play area (something unheard in earlier cruise ship designs). Carnival Splendor will have also a huge spa facility, over 18,000 square ft. located on two front decks. In addition to the usual treatment rooms, the spa will also feature a thermal suite and the first thalassotherapy pool – the first such pool aboard Carnival cruise ships.

Another novelty will be the whole sports deck with arena-like facility for holding games and events. This is much more than any other cruise ships have to offer.

Generally speaking, Carnival Splendor's strongest point is thought to be health, sport and recreational facilities, though it is sure that the cuisine and nightlife entertainments will be just as good as those offered aboard other Carnival ships.

How to Get the Lowest Rates on a Carnival Cruise

This is our latest installment on helping clients find the best rates on any Carnival cruise. As one of the industry’s leading online Cruise Specialists, we have put together some of easiest ways to ensure you will get the best rates on your next Carnival cruise!

First, pick a cruise specialist. Using a specialist will eliminate the uncertainty associated with using a travel agent in that a specialist knows the inner workings of the cruise line in regards to best travel dates, promotions, ship details, routes etc. When searching for a specialist, whenever possible, talk to them personally. Doing searches on the internet these days is leaving too much to chance. Everyone and their mother is selling cruises today and you want to make sure that the specialist you are buying from has actually been on a cruise! Makes sense, right? When choosing your specialist, find out if you will be taken care of exclusively by the specialist through the entire booking process and not become just a number after you book. You are spending too much money to become a statistic! How do you know that you are receiving the best possible rate? Simple, call the cruise line directly and compare your rate.

Make sure your rate includes all port charges and taxes. If you look close, 95% of so-called bargains on the internet are not bargains at all-you can get the same rate by dealing with the cruise line directly. Beware of outrageous internet claims-“75% off your cruise!”, “Buy one get one free!”, “Free Air”. You’ve heard it before, if it sounds too good to be true… There are literally thousands of garbage promotion hooks. That doesn’t mean there are not honest promotions out there. You can usually tell the difference by how they are presented. More to come!
